    want...

    - - - Updated - - -

    So, module results were posted at 23:59 supposedly. Go onto the uni site, 4 modules uploaded results, 1 module stuck an announcement up to say theyve been delayed and the 6th is just completely AWOL.
    A- in maths and software engineering, happy with that. B- in modern networks, considering I find that to be rather dull (does turn out that falling asleep on the keyboard with a terminal session open on a cisco router does crash the router as discovered by colleague) I am happy with that.
    Internet technology though, I hate writing reports, I hate web development and its also the only thing I have fallen asleep during (I never fall asleep, something has to be really dull for me to do that). F.

    Now, apparently us students dont want to know the excuse for our problem solving grade being delayed, with tuition fees being so high I bloody well do. No idea where systems grade has floated off to.

    Hey Potato, remember a while ago when you said this wouldn't have been an 80km/h (50mp/h) rear end collision?

    That's a truck, a completely different type of car. You also hit it with the covet, the lightest car. Even after that the damage to the truck is still way more than that of your mom's car.
    In the picture of your mom's car, the hatch isn't even bent. There's no way that was 50mph/80kmh.

    Spain's king abdicated just 1 hour ago. Now you would expect we would have a referendum and prove that the majority of people in Spain want a Republic, but hey, this is Spain, this false democracy will do what they want.

    Hopefully we will soon have a new country flag:

    Very sexy, unlike the robot I've been working with this afternoon which genuinely has a cardboard cutout in it because I can't afford to have things laser cut and don't have the tools to cut a sheet of plastic myself.
    I'll get the camera out to take a pic later

    It's a co-processor. Like... you can buy those instead of using generic video cards.
