Legally, Nintendo can't do anything

Yep

5.5 is a pass

true lintel

i mean you cant really compare me and you

my subjects are understanding and in depth knowldge based

its not by hearting anything

#

you have names and stuff to learn in biology, i could never do that. Anyway last time I had a combined sciene exam, I got almost all my questions on biology incorrect

kind trench
#

The annoying thing is, I get (almost) exactly the same grades for biology with studying as without studying

#

I think I have exam stress or something.

true lintel
#

I am very lucky to not have to study for my exams most the time and still pass. But thats because I pay attention in class, ask questions and finish my works, homeworks and put in extra effort at home

I listened to some Brasil and some old American jazz for the past weeks and my weekly is full with, 70’s Japanese jazz for some reason? And also just 70’s songs in general, not nescessarely jazz.

#

I mainly listened 30’s to 60’s music

#

Not really that I mind cause it still gave me some good songs

blazing bolt
#

I need it

#

and luk thung, which is thai folk music

kind trench
#

It doesn't know what to recommend me because I went from alternative hip-hop (mainly jazz/soul and lyrical hip hop) to jazz

#

I think Spotify tries to interest me in Japanese jazz as I've listened to Nujabes a lot (a Japanese DJ/rapper/producer who's known as the trendsetter of lo-fi hip-hop and using a lot of jazz samples)

proven nymph
#

ah

It recommended me this song for example:

dont see a lot of NT picking art as extra in my experience

#

good stuff

kind trench
#

Yeah. I've always liked art and it might help me in my future carreer

#

Cause I want to be an architect later

versed tendon
#

I see

#

might be usefull definitely

kind trench
#

So some artistic skills could help me

versed tendon
#

for sure

#

know where ya gonna go yet?

kind trench
#

Hbo at the HAN

#

Afterwards I'd have to go to University for a year or 1, 2? (Not sure how long)

versed tendon
#

for a master?

kind trench
#

Yup

versed tendon
#

usually 2

merry timber
versed tendon
#

is that just straight up hbo architectuur?

#

or is it like bouwkunde with a focus on...

kind trench
versed tendon
#

gotcha

kind trench
#

There's no specific architecture subject

versed tendon
#

yeah thats what i was wondering

#

figured it be in the flavour of bouwkunde studies xD

kind trench
#

It's just... you can become an architect if you finished bouwkunde

kind trench
versed tendon
#

guessing the NT over NG to skip out on biology then? xD

kind trench
#

Like, doing projects together, mixed classes etc..

kind trench
#

I could've chosen between Biology and something else (forgot what it was called)

versed tendon
#

anw?

#

or is that not a thing anymore

kind trench
#

No

#

I don't think that's a thing anymore

versed tendon
#

for the better tbh

kind trench
#

NLT

#

It was NLT

versed tendon
#

aah that

#

natuur leven techniek iirc

#

didnt pick it either

kind trench
#

Yeah

versed tendon
#

sounded like way too many group projects to be fun

kind trench
#

Yeah but I suppose it's a little bit easier then biology

versed tendon
#

fair enough, biology did suck

kind trench
#

Especially for me, as I have physics

versed tendon
#

my lowest grade on the results

kind trench
#

Math B was my best, physics is my worst.

versed tendon
#

that is interesting

#

my maths A grade was worse than my physics grade

kind trench
#

Math B was pretty easy

#

Never got why people didn't like it.

#

It's just simply rules, and you imply them

#

That's it

versed tendon
#

wasnt for me

#

redid year 5, and tried maths B for a year because i had all maths A grades locked in regardless

#

didnt stick

#

too abstract for me at the time

#

had to learn it all in my study after anyway but that was somehow more doable?

versed tendon
#

maths A was just very logical, could use the GC for all

kind trench
#

Previous year I was half in 4th and half in 5th doing my exams

versed tendon
#

interesting construction

kind trench
#

Nailed it, now I have only a few subjects in 5th to finish

versed tendon
#

so this year half year 5 and half exams?

#

wait nvm, 5 years is it my bad

#

thats nice though, less to focus on at a time

kind trench
#

Yeah

versed tendon
#

think physics is gonna be the biggest obstacle then in bouwkunde?

kind trench
#

It's still kinda difficult with Physics, Chemistry, KUA and Biology tho

kind trench
#

Luckily I'm good at math

versed tendon
#

that should help with physics, in the end it is applied maths

#

physics is applied maths, and chemistry is applied physics

kind trench
#

Exactly

#

Chemistry and physics are completely different here tho...

#

We mainly work with reactions at chemistry

versed tendon
#

fair, that is also an important part of it

#

#

How different substances react with each other etc

Yeah...

#

Might buy my own in that case

versed tendon
#

oh i mean we got to keep the actual book

#

just not allowed to use it in further education

kind trench
#

Ohh

#

I think we have to give it back to the school

versed tendon
#

that sucks too

#

fun book to keep

kind trench
#

Yeah

#

Would help a lot with the formula's etc...

versed tendon
#

definitely

#

luckily you'll likely still get cheat sheets on exams later on

kind trench
#

Yeah

#

I hope so

versed tendon
#

cant be sure, dont have experience with hbo, but I imagine its similar

kind trench
#

For now I just really wanna be done with school

versed tendon
#

wanna get the well deserved long summer break

kind trench
#

Yeah and I wanna meet some new people sometime yk...

versed tendon
#

student life is great for that

#

new people, own place at some point

kind trench
#

As my friendgroup passed the exams, I am the only one left

versed tendon

#

And tbh the people here aren't really... great

There's or really really nerdy people or just straight up assholes

For free?

versed tendon
# meager dust For free?

the steam version is the premium version, meaning there are no ingame purchases or diamonds, which does cost i believe 5-7 bucks

kind trench
versed tendon

if you want to play it on pc for free, you can use an emulator to run the game, such as bluestacks

versed tendon

im sure you'll enjoy it, most people do

Yeah

versed tendon
#

just make sure to eat healthy every now and then when you move out xD

kind trench
#

I am not really planning to move out yet

versed tendon
#

also fair enough, saves you lots of money to live at home first

kind trench
#

I live a bit outside Nijmegen and my study will be in Arnhem

versed tendon
#

ah, especially with that commute yea

kind trench
#

So I can easily take the train

versed tendon
#

i took a 50m train ride and 50 back for the first 3 years

#

so definitely doable

kind trench
#

If I'm gonna move out I'll defo rather live in Nijmegen then in Arnhem

versed tendon
#

i do recommend that if you want to move to a student home, sigh in early. wait times are crazyy

kind trench
versed tendon
#

you can usually just sign up, and leave it be for years collecting waittime

kind trench
versed tendon
#

im in utrecht

#

wont get anywhere without at least 2.5 years of wait time

kind trench
#

I'd love to live in the city

versed tendon
#

took me 3 years to get into here

of waittime

100% true

#

good old demographics

kind trench
versed tendon
#

had geography did ya?

kind trench
#

Yeah for the first years

#

Just to get some basic knowledge

#

It was interesting tho

versed tendon
#

good good

kind trench
#

And the teachers were pretty cool too

#

In general teachers at my school are chill

#

But wby? You're going to college or...

versed tendon
#

good teachers can make or break a subject yea

#

im in uni yea

#

currently wrapping up my bachelors thesis, and about to start a minor to get my highschool teaching license

kind trench
#

What subject?

versed tendon
#

earth sciences

kind trench
#

Sounds pretty cool

#

What's it about?

versed tendon
#

my study?

#

or thesis

kind trench
#

Study

#

Earth scienses

versed tendon
#

earthsciences in general is a very broad study, everything from geology to geography. say volcanos earthquakes climate rivers dunes etc

#

but you choose tracks within it to focus on only a few areas within the study

kind trench
#

Aha

#

Sounds nice

versed tendon
#

im following two tracks of surface dynamics and water/climate

zenith dome
#

hi

versed tendon
#

so you'll catch me looking at river systems, coastal systems, and the likes

#

but since i like a bit of everything, thought why not also get a teaching license for it, good backup to have

versed tendon
zenith dome
#

to you too how have you been?

versed tendon
#

busy but good, how about yourself

zenith dome
#

eh tired as always

kind trench
#

Or just to get that extra degree

versed tendon
#

id want to be a teacher in the later part of my career

#

say when im 50-retiring

kind trench
#

And before that?

#

What's your dream carreer?

versed tendon
#

pfffff

#

tough questions

kind trench
#

ikr

versed tendon
#

currently working a lot with so called remote sensing, using satellite data/imagery to do among other things, risk assesment for geohazards

#

which ive been enjoying so far

kind trench
#

That's cool

versed tendon
#

something in that direction would be great

kind trench
#

What kinda projects do you do for example?

versed tendon
#

currently finishing my thesis using similar concepts

#

using satellite data to see if we can find patterns in the coastal vegetation and dune erosion after storm events

#

to hopefully better our understanding of how dune vegetation can help in stabalizing dunes and possibly prevent erosion

kind trench
#

Thats sick

#

Is it specified to dunes (natural things) or does it also have to do with technology etc?

#

Cause it sounds like something that'll involve a lot of technics

versed tendon
#

the aim itself is focussed purely on the effects on the dune

#

but the study requires quite the technics yea

#

using processing systems to classify vegetation automatically from satellite imagery etc

#

but the results have no impact on new technology systems or the likes

kind trench
#

Aha

#

So it mainly focusses on nature

#

And the effects on nature

#

And effects of nature

versed tendon
#

yes, its focussed on the foredune specifically, which is the biggest/first dune on the beach facing the ocean

#

so the very first line of defence from flooding during storm surges

#

and if you pick a study that you find enjoyable, such big projects are a blast to work on

#

unlike highschool xD

Great people should talks about great things

kind trench
versed tendon
#

oh definitely

#

most if not all subjects are influenced to some degree by climate change

#

especially working with river and coastal systems, a big part is the response to climate change

night sentinel
#

I have no words

night sentinel
#

A classmate of mine didn't know what the holocaust was when our history teacher asked

versed tendon
#

yikess

night sentinel
#

And take a wild guess what the classmate does all the time

#

Just sits on the phone and does nothing

kind trench
#

I feel like I'm kinda double/hypocrite about climate change

#

Cause I tend to care for climate but am also a car fanatic

#

I do support electric cars tho, just not tesla due to designs

versed tendon
#

I for one am very aware of the implications of climate change through my studies, but along that, I am also interested in seeing more of the world, most places of which you can't realistically travel to without planes

kind trench
#

Yeah, I just hope there's enough investment in research.

#

Like, there's almost no 2nd hand market for electric cars which makes them extremely expensive (as you gotta buy them from a dealership), if they put more research in electric cars they could make them more durable and thus create a 2nd hand market for them.

#

But in comparison, planes and yachts are much worse then cars. So I feel like we have to invest more into that as well (as the world is mainly focussing on cars).

#

Not saying they should stop making electric vehicles. I think they should just work more on vehicles in particular.

versed tendon
#

Though with that, everything that needs energy is currently still mostly powered with fossil fuel generated energy

#

Which is also a big part of the energy transition

#

As much as governments are skeptical (because most politicians know squat about science) building sustainable sources such as nuclear power plants is needed

kind trench
#

I'd rather live next to some wind turbines and solar panels then a Nuclear power plant

Omgggg im so f'ed up rn

Wtf

#

I was never been this surprised by a game

#

Holy

versed tendon
kind trench
#

It went wrong and almost went wrong a couple times.

versed tendon
#

All I know is that we have developed safer alternatives, like using thorium instead of uranium, that can be shut down 100× faster

kind trench
#

And if it goes wrong, it usually means a whole pandemic

versed tendon
#

It does, but the other side is rhat the amount of accidents that happen in coal mines across the world has caused way more death so far than nuclear accidents

kind trench
versed tendon
#

You'd need a metric fuck ton of em yea

kind trench
#

So TheoTown is right about that

naive ice
#

hi remains

true lintel
#

did i just read that there is 1000+ new messages?

versed tendon
#

Also in terms of saving on CO2 emissions, windturbines need to be replaced/updated every I believe 30 years, which makes them about as bad as not building them

#

Huge difference in types and location ofcourse but

#

It needs to he adapted to whatever fits the situation, and sometimes nuclear is the best option there

versed tendon
versed tendon
kind trench
#

It's not only about deaths, as we've used more fossil fuels

versed tendon
#

We have chernobyl yea, that was a big one

compact dragon
#

we're so barack

kind trench
#

Also that one Japanese city

versed tendon
#

Yeah, but the Japanese one is different

kind trench
#

Furushima or something?

versed tendon
#

I said we'd need to look at what suits the location best

compact dragon
#

oh we are on topic of nuclearity

versed tendon
#

And fukushima

kind trench
#

We've had a few leaks and a few cracks...

versed tendon
#

Yeah, don't build nuclear plants in locations with earthquakes and tsunamis xD

kind trench
#

We were scared for another nuclear explosion in Ukraïne a while back

versed tendon
#

Yeah definitely

#

Lots of factors to take into account

true lintel
compact dragon
#

Lithuania used to have one atom station, and I think it is the only one in baltic states

kind trench
#

And what if everythings durable and permanent at some point? We'll still be stuck with the nuclear waste.

compact dragon
true lintel
#

also hi how are you doing Mr.Sloth

versed tendon
#

We've left enough holes in the earth where we got al the fossil fuels from

compact dragon
kind trench
versed tendon
#

Oh definitely not

kind trench
#

What if one collapses? Or in case of an earthquacke? Or another leak...

versed tendon
#

But the risk if we don't is that we won't fully transition and keep using fossil fuels untill there is nothing left in some 30-50 years

#

And then we won't have the infrastructure

#

To sustain our energy needs

kind trench
#

That's also why I'm not nescessarely against nuclear power plants.

#

It's just, a big risk

#

If we get everything completely durable before we destroy earth, that'd be a much better solution of course.

versed tendon
#

It is yeah

compact dragon
#

what we do have is 3 hydro power stations

versed tendon
#

100%

compact dragon
#

it would have been 4

versed tendon
#

Hydro power is also big yea

#

if Daugavpils HES would become a thing

kind trench
#

There's even technics to take CO2 away from the atmosphere

compact dragon
#

but thankfully? it did not

versed tendon
#

But also destroyed land downstream usually

compact dragon
#

Daugavpils HES was cancelled in 1986-1987 when local inhabitants protested

#

crazy that USSR has listened actually but Idk, is it good or bad?

it was planned 200 megawatts

Craziest plot twist

true lintel

hi remains? :>

naive ice

Absolutely wild

#

Definitely caught me vastly off my guard

true lintel

but Daugava would be a very, very small river if it wouldn't be flooded

true lintel

is that an enemy?
