Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2017

theres such a lack of art subs banter so here i am ready to contribute

im taking arts1030 rn and jesus crust i could smell the sea of pretentiousness 10 minutes into the lecture..... fr people were just regurgitating what the lecturer was saying and marinating it with their extensive vocab like wthf we geddit.... we're all doing english n shit here pal /rant

also i cant access echo????? does anybody know how to fix im on a mac air and whenever i click echo360 it goes grey with a sad pixel paper looking at me

With echo try a different browser - the sad pixel paper is chrome running out of memory iirc. Earlier last week there was an issue with chrome not being able to use Echo because of the security certificates.

Also seems as though "Wankerness" is apparent across the spectrum of first year courses. Hopefully it dies down after the first few weeks otherwise I'm going to cringe so hard I'll shrivel up.

So what's the tea with the internet at UNSW? Like do we pay, or do we just use it, is there a cap? Or what... Because I have just been using it to do anything without thinking much about it tbh.

Where are some good places to burn an hour doing some work? Library isn't worth the trek for me tbh.

Been using the science theatre foyer because good toilets, quiet, not crowded and decent internet. Anyone else got suggestions?

Whatever you said, and if you torrent a lot of movies expect something like a $500 fine.

It is included in the 4k+ you pay every sem.

Hard to choose when it's the first lab and half the people are going around "hey how many languages do you know", then you watch them proceed to open up Python IDLE and write a program that infinite loops "hey" and act like they're a coding ninja. /rant

You are probably over-exaggerating here. I have not seen anyone do that yet.

What should I expect in the ENGG1000 impromptu design reflection task?

You get given an extract that should be based on Engineering Design (process?) and you answer 3/4 questions while relating that to your personal experience on the day. It is worth 5% but the markers hate giving out easy marks - half the people I knew got only 3/5.
