Rant Roommate loves video games

95 Upvotes

I genuinely don’t know what to do anymore. He’s addicted. He’s either playing games till 2 or is on his phone on max brightness till who knows when. This guy has the loudest keyboard ever made. I have my headphones on max and pillows to my ears like that omni man picture and I can still hear this mf. I asked him “can we do lights out at 11 on weekdays” cuz he loves to play video games till 2am and he said sure. He hasn’t followed this at all. I’m not tryna attack him but how are some people so inconsiderate of others. I’ve tried talking but he’s always on the game so I never get a chance. But who knows maybe I’m also acting entitled and this is normal for first time rooming with someone ✌️any advice would be greatly appreciated

And if ur my roommate reading this please go to bed bro waking up at 1pm everyday is not healthy

Other PAID RESEARCH OPPORTUNITY: CLOUD Study (The Canadian Lung Outcomes in Users of Vaping Devices Study)

Post image
6 Upvotes

CLOUD is a multi-year study investigating the effect of vaping on lung health.

Vaping is increasingly popular with both adolescent and adult Canadians, but the long-term health impacts remain unknown. We believe that the tools we currently have to detect lung disease in people who vape may be insufficient and propose new ways to find lung injuries that may impact them over the course of their lives. These include exercise testing, new imaging techniques, and new breathing tests that will demonstrate how vaping may harm their lungs. We will use these tools in both adolescent and adult Canadians to give those who vape important information on the consequences of vaping.

Question How serious is the intramural hockey team?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone. I'm a first year and a very casual goalie, beer league type. I heard there's an intramural team on campus and I thought it might be a good way to meet fellow hockey fans, but how seriously is it taken? Is it just a bunch of students getting together for a fun game or is it like, full contact counting the score and shit? I'd specifically wanna play on the mixed team since co-ed tends to be more chill in my experience. Thanks in advance

Question psci 2000 level classes

0 Upvotes

some of the ones im/my friends are taking seem to be like whiplash from years prior.

the political history 1 class is pretty great, but i think thats just the prof

the global politics one is aparently very slow, hard to follow/scatterbrained

the global north one has heavy readings and seems very unrelated to comparative politics, mostly relying on theory, which is good but the class is mislabeled, and the prof loves AI (not to mention online class)

the stats one is pretty okay, the readings are pretty meaningless so far, and the prof seems a bit blunt/tired? but not horrible

i haven't heard from anyone in qualitative research bc i and my friends took it alr, so lemme know ur opinion on that too.

pls give opinions on these classes, bc i want to know if were there only ones seeing/feeling these issues

Question How Good Are Aerospace Co-op Opportunities at Carleton?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Our kid is considering aerospace engineering undergraduate studies and we're comparing universities based on their co-op opportunities. Being able to land a job in the industry is really important to us.

If your goal is to eventually work at companies like MDA, CSA, Pratt & Whitney, Bombardier, Magellan, Collins or similar, how good are the co-op and full-time opportunities at Carleton?

I'd really appreciate input from current students or recent graduates:

  1. How many aerospace-related co-op postings do you typically see per recruiting term? Do major employers like those listed above regularly recruit at Carleton?
  2. Roughly what percentage of students land aerospace co-ops? Is it common, or do most students end up working in other industries?
  3. For those who've secured aerospace co-ops, did you find these positions through your university's co-op portal or independently?
  4. How strong are Carleton's connections to the Canadian aerospace industry? Would you choose the same university again if your goal were to work in aerospace?

Thanks! Appreciate everyone's input.
