I think you were trying to be funny, but you kind of suck at it.

Haha good to hear! Well the nanotech degree at UoW has a research subject each year starting first year, so in that specific case, research seems a bit more intertwined with the undergraduate degree. I'll have to have a think about it all. I want to finish my comp sci degree as well, but I...

Yeah. Eh, ah well I don't give a shit now. I'm starting a new degree and it'll be like a gap year that lasted 3 years where I actually learnt stuff! See you at UoW!

If you're 17 or 18, take a year off mate. I wish I had of.

You can be my mod any day of the week honey. ;)

Well that shakes things up a bit since UoW doesn't have a chemical engineering degree. It does sound interesting. Still, I was hoping by now the notion that nanotech is for researchers would have changed. If that's still true for nanotech, what about materials science engineering? Where do...

Re: ___this Whole Thread Comes Down To This___ Your entire 'theory' falls apart because the 'builder' needn't be supernatural. Science explains the construction sufficiently. Go here for more details.

Sounds like an account set up by the music industry to scare people or something. Either way, good job banning it.

Really? cal > calendar works fine for me. Ubuntu 5.04. Perhaps make sure you have permission to create a file in the directory. Trying cd'ing to your home directory or something then trying. Alternatively, try creating the file 'calendar', then running the command. This isn't Windows and...

Better to think you see a tiger than to miss a real tiger.

The CSU communications degree is the best in the country alongside UTS?

Pretty brave of you to admit that champ, but I hear the first step is always the hardest, and now you can be proactive about your situation. The majority of prostitutes will probably still accept you. Just remember: it's not your fault you were born Asian.
