The batteries in your phones are just sad.

Felt totally alone for the first time ever at uni, I have 0 units with my friends and this teacher encourages study groups and I'm not a social I work better alone so if the class is going to be set up like that with everyone grouping with friends idk how much she wants to contribute with strangers.

I really dislike it when teachers try and make  classes fully interactive it's not my style. Just  some random  thoughts on uni recently

Does anyone know if 550 posts on atar notes is considered a "milestone" ?

Does anyone know if 550 posts on atar notes are considered a "milestone"?

Not really and it would depend on whether they're actually quality posts
500 seems like more of a milestone to me than 550. Even still groups of 1000 would still be the appropriate number for a milestone
Also, If you make 1000 posts just in forum games and casual chat for argument's sake, are those posts really that quality?
Remember: Quality over Quantity

But posts in forum games and chat don't count towards post count?

That was just for the sake of my argument. Take "'the things that shit me" thread
If that's the only one you post in, are those posts really quality at all

If i ask a lot of questions in the "methods question thread", are they considered quality posts?

Questions are definitely quality because if someone asks them, chances are they might answer it for someone else too.
But the whole thing was merely a generalised statement about quality posts; nothing else

Questions are only quality if you need them answered. Posting for the sake of it or to get online post count titles... Surely one would have better things to do with their time?

Anyway. Since this is a random thoughts thread: I just wanted to ask about your display picture, snowisawesome!

Pretty interesting image. An axial T1 magnetic resonance imaging slice of the midbrain with a Mickey Mouse sign, an infamous sign in neuroradiology characteristically seen in progressive supranuclear palsy, if I'm not mistaken?

How did you come across such an esoteric image?

Tad creepy to use one of my old ATAR Notes display pics buddy... Not cool.

Spoiler

For those playing at home, looks like the display picture got changed this morning. Here is the image for anyone interested https://radiopaedia.org/cases/progressive-supranuclear-palsy-with-mickey-mouse-sign-1

insanipi seems to be under the false impression that HSC science is actually proper science.

Glad I didn't do HSC then
I still can't believe you didn't learn the ideal gas law.

Have you ever seen birds fly in a v-shape and wonder why one side is longer than the other?
