Giordano Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Aren't the Black Panthers a group of blacks, or were a group rather, that assaulted whites? Also, I'm up.They were fighting for rights, violently, as opposed to MLKs peaceful ways. I don't blame them.

Saru Inc Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I am beyond livid at this point. As I'm sure at least one person is aware, I sold my ipod recently on Ebay. They filed a claim saying the audio doesn't work. Calling [cabbage], yet ebay still sided with them. I got the ipod back. They replaced the external speaker with plastic. The majority of the epicness of the ipod is [bleep]ing ruined now. I am taking vengeance on ebay, will post later with an update. Don't give them the money. I never had that option, Paypal held the money for 21 days. So I never even had the money to begin with. Sue them? Ok, so I talked to them today, yada yada. The lady said once the case is entirely closed, I can re appeal. And she will put in the "case notes," the fact that I should be refunded 100%. we'll see how it goes. Aren't the Black Panthers a group of blacks, or were a group rather, that assaulted whites? Also, I'm up.They were fighting for rights, violently, as opposed to MLKs peaceful ways. I don't blame them. I mean to be honest, I do. Violence is never ok. Now this is not to say I never have violent thoughts, or reactions, hell, I'm a violent person. But that doesn't excuse what the Panthers did. I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

Guest Rob Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Changing the topic here, has anyone ever used "Steam" before? It's a program for PC, and I need it to install my game. But, whenever I open it, it insta-crashes. Any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2PM Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Sometimes Steam will have its moments for me, but its very reliable.Why its crashing, I have no idea.Stupid question: are you on a mac?Might as well ask, because Steam is really [cabbage]ty on macs.

Dupin Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Has anyone ever not used Steam? It's pretty much the backbone of modern PC gaming. Today wasn't bad, tomorrow I will be asleep all day.

Guest Rob Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 No, I'm on windows 7. I hit the "install" button on a game, the window pops up and is instantly frozen...

Blake Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Today, my counselor told me he screwed up my credits. Last year, he told me I was completely done with English, and now he's telling me I have to take a another writing intensive English class to graduate. That also means I can't take the Chemistry class that's required to apply to MIT and Stanford. Also, I emailed my math teacher a teacher recommendation that is required for MIT, and he won't do it because he 'doesn't know me well enough'. FML, there goes my college career/future job/life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Well last semester he said I was done with English completely, so I scheduled a bunch of math/science/engineering courses to build a good application for MIT/Stanford and get me ready for it. Now, since I have to take the English class, I can't take Calc 2 or Chemistry 2, haven't decided which one to drop yet... If he wouldn't have said I was done with English, I could have taken it this semester and been fine. I'm really not sure what to do about the Math recommendation. My freshman year I went to a high school across the country and never got to know my teacher. My sophomore year was the one I already asked. My Junior and Senior (current) years are being done at the University of Minnesota, and the professors have ~200 students each, there's no way they will know me enough to write a recommendation. I don't even know their names.... I'll just have to get my sophomore Biology teacher to do it, and hope it's good enough... I'm at about average stats for last year's acceptance statistics for MIT, and the acceptance rate is about 10%. Very slim chances <_< Really the only hope I have is that I started college full time when I was 16 at the beginning of my junior year of high school, hopefully they'll recognize that I can do good in college classes and accept me :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangeor Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Good luck man. Don't worry too much about the statistics; being around the average is good enough. Your interview and essays will weigh a lot more than your grades. Your teacher recommendations are also very important, but I'm sure they would be very understanding of your situation if you specify that; they have room on the application just for situations like yours. And one thing most people miss with MIT is that they require two SAT subject tests: one in math, and one in science. lolstanford, and good luck with MIT :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Yeah, good luck. I'm sure you'll be fine :) I don't suppose anyone can give me advice for the problems I had before with Steam? (See my post at the top of the page.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
