Is it even possible to modify the files if you buy it on Steam?

Yes it is.

I never owned an Xbox so it doesn't bother me. However, if you really want to look at servers shutting down, have a look at EA's games.

Another good example that companies don't have to go out of business to shut down servers and thus making it impossible for you to play some of the games.

But Steam will always allow people to play any of their games.

That's a little bit vague to me in the sense that I wouldn't really know exactly what job you could have in a company. Could you also be running the website and such, like an admin? That would be the first thing that comes to my mind.

Exactly. It's pretty vague, so it's hard for me to imagine what my work day would look like. ^^

Yes, I could run a website, but it's not what I want to do. I have coded some websites already and it's a pain in the ass to always keep in mind to code for all the different browsers out there. Especially the Internet Explorer seems to interpret HTML in a very special way...

Aha. But what else could you do on the informatics side then? Maybe advising companies and such, but then you're probably going more to the business side already.

At 4/14/10 01:36 PM, Auz wrote: Yeah I've heard something like that. There was also this South Park episode about it, which explained it nicely :p

Most exams here are just 100% of your grade :p You either pass or fail the subject based on that one exam, no exceptions. Projects are usually separated from the courses, but they're not so hard to pass. They're just a lot of work.

For me a typical upper division Econ course grade scale consisted of Midterm 1 30%, Midterm 2 Final 30%, and 10% Misc. For like the general Econ course (they type they force everyone to take) is the same except you took Three Midterms and they would drop the lowest one. Each college is different but typically this is common for most courses.

I see. Sounds a bit like how it goes in highschool here. You just get a couple of tests that account for a certain percentage of your grade and then they take the average at the end of the year.

I'm not sure which system I'd prefer. Yours sounds more relaxing because if you got a good grade for that 70% already you won't even have to bother with the exam.

That has only happen to me once where I didn't have to even have a passing score on the Final; Physics II. I just had to score a 44% and still keep my B or score something like a 97% to get an A.

Ah :p I always wondered how the American system would work with those letters as grades. I didn't know how you could take the average of an A and a B. Thought you guys just had to get anything higher than an F for every test or something, but with those percentages it makes more sense.

Anyway, I suppose you took it easy and went for a B then in that case :p That's what I would do at least.

Currently 2.12am, 17th of April, my time, Adelaide, Sth Australia that is and all though not actually official until 11.43pm this evening. I'm 43 years young today. And I would like to thank everyone in advance for not being rude about it.

For most courses relating to your major you have to get above a C grade or else you have to retake it. For your electives you can take a D but that won't do much good for your GPA.

Anyway, I suppose you took it easy and went for a B then in that case :p That's what I would do at least.

Yeah it was my last final of the semester and I did decent on it, I want to say I got a 77% which gave me a B overall. The professor was a new one, so he was super easy on the grading.

6000 medal pionts

It's nothing to be proud of in the grand scheme of things, given I could have been doing far more productive things... But today, between B/P and new posts, I've acquired over 100+ new stats.
The next badge isn't far off at all.

Hooray.

I leveled up!

Of course it's nice that more people are switching to Opera, but it's kinda nice to use a browser that doesn't have such a big share in the market, as hackers (mostly) concentrate on the market leaders to wreak havoc.
