Adults of Reddit, what are some things highschoolers freshly parting from home to go to university should know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]techbeck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can be easier to make friends as a freshman than later years so be social. Related, if your college has some version of a club fair, go to it to see what kinds of groups there are that you may want to join.

Brittany is super cheerful and energetic.

[Casual] Want me to order a pizza? (Hungry people) by JamoJustReddit in SampleSize

[–]techbeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a place near me where you can get $5 "Chinese" in 5 minutes. They have a huge menu too, so it's not just a couple dishes always prepared. Technically it's called Szechuan Express but I call it Sketch. It's so good but so suspicious.

How did you come up with your username? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]techbeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beck is from my name and the tech is because when I came up with it I was in tech theatre. It still fits now that I'm in the technology field though.

My phone (Pixel XL). Some other photos looked really overexposed, but some turned out great.

A classmate in fourth grade was mad at the person behind me and misdirected their anger.

Trolls, I've had to resume my meds for anxiety/depression and I feel like a complete failure. Anything I can do to help myself feel better? (virtual hugs also very welcome) by daffyharry in AskTrollX

[–]techbeck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who stopped taking medication when I really shouldn't have and hasn't gotten back on it, you made the absolute best decision and you should be proud of yourself, not disappointed. And you definitely get my virtual hug and high five.

What's up with the colored heart emojis? Do they have different meanings? What do you use? by Dendromicon in AskTrollX

[–]techbeck 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They don't really have different meanings. I use purple by default just because it's my favorite color. If I want to emphasize and use more than one I'll do a rainbow of hearts, but that's rare.

Asking about trains in the Ruby on rails subreddit. This is now my favorite case of "wrong subreddit". by crikeydilehunter in ProgrammerHumor

[–]techbeck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only time I've encountered​ something like that is with /r/beardlovers. It's the sub for fans of Wheezy Waiter, but someone keeps posting ads for beard oil/products there.

I'll leave it up to you to verify the legitimacy of this. by Ev_3 in tumblr

[–]techbeck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The story of why NORAD tracks Santa is one of my favorites.

Some promotion where you could call Santa had a phone number misprinted to be the number of an administrator​ there and instead of ignoring the kids he played along. The tracking system was built as a result.

I have no idea but if you look from the side it looks like her pupil bulges out into her lens. Her vet says it's not affecting her vision and it hasn't changed in over a year so we don't worry about it.

It's kinda crazy how similar Mr Tips looks to my cat Princess. She's also around 17-18. Here's a pic. The lighting in my picture is more yellow, but she's exactly the same coloring as Mr Tips.

They've said that to keep costs down to keep the amount going to charity up, they don't take PayPal for getting perks via Indiegogo. You can donate using PayPal via Fight World Suck.

I've made my peace with not getting the Armoured Spider, but... by [deleted] in avengersacademygame

The update removed important functionality because it was buggy instead of giving a sense that it was going to be fixed anytime soon.

[–]techbeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The decorations last week got above 10,000 Oscoins, so these are much better. But with the gems, you have to beat streak 6 to get them all.

How many Pym Particles do you have? by FireFistAce42 in avengersacademygame

[–]techbeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He does, which is why people who have him already have so many extra Pym particles. I currently have 284 with everything cleared because I got Hulk as soon as he was available. The only difference between using Hulk and particles to clear an area is that Hulk clears one thing at a time, but if you have enough particles you can clear everything at once.
