    I wonder what exam everybody is most worried about in the coming weeks.
    Operating Systems is what I hate, mostly because the useless tool that is Berny Power is teaching, its alsmot impossible to study for the test, you read a page, and you fall asleep, ah I just want to get 35% and I'd be happy, COMPENSATION is the greatest invention ever. :-) )

    For me I just want to get it over cuz I'm sick of bloody studying.

    Can't be bothered anymore, I just want to sleep, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    I haven't started studying yet. I know what you mean bout boring notes putting you to sleep though! I still have to print off all notes from this year. My exams start tuesday and at least i have a day off to study for next one in between.

    I did operating systems in 2nd year, different lecturer though. It was one boring-ass subject, but it was easy all the same.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 358 ✭✭begbie


    I may have done operating systems. Sounds familiar. Can't remember though. :dunno:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    Lots of drone about deadlocks, cpu scheduling algorithms etc?
    and some chatter about ancient operating systems like "Tops-20"?

    Right so i had my Surveying exam on Saturday and i've just finished my maths exam, so thats my two worst subjects out of the way :D. Other then that i think i'll wait until two hours before i go to bed to actuall do some study. That seems to be how i always do things.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 620 ✭✭✭spanner


    as you can guess it aint going well cause i am on this stupid addictive board all the time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,459 ✭✭✭seanos


    Must admit, construction going on right outside house doesn't help with study/exams.

    Hard enough to get down to it without ESB digging everything up [Even if they usually are the best company ever created!].

    Now to go back to staring at the screen, and dreaming of a CW046 for Dummies [or Physics/Maths books for dummies - or "in 20 minute's" style books for courses ;)]


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    netsoc is good, but the constant pimping for it makes us all look like lamers.

    wasn't pimping it there stephen - purely having fun / taking the piss, at which point I'm now finished.

    If I did wish to get the point across about joining, the last thing I would do is spam etc it ... [I have suffered at my inital "lazy way to add to all search engines" by receiving 100+ extra spam a day on top of what I get already].

    I thought it was quite obvious that I was not doing this in any serious manner [apart of course from my orignal threads which were rather long detailing information regarding it].

    Apologies to any who /didn't/ manage to see the amusing side of it....

    And getting back to the topic of the thread [initally], I wonder if ESB read my post while on their lunch and decided to also have bit of fun & work twice as loud...

    Delightful. I tell you to stop "whoring" netsoc or you'll be temp banned and you just shrug it off. Stephen tells you your making "us" look like lamers and you call it a day :rolleyes:

    Well, I'm afraid its too late. 1 week temp ban.

    Ahh let the pimping continue cause it's the only real amusingthing on the board at the moment. It's fun to guess how long it will be until this thing get's closed by Ivan.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 920 ✭✭✭elvis2002

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 4,569 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ivan


    Seriously like. Whats the point of all this. If its to see how far I'll go, that isnt really a problem for me. It takes 30 seconds to ban someone and send them a pm. On that note :

    I_am_Dogboy : 1 week Temp Ban.
    Stevenk : 1 month Temp Ban (Second offence. Next time its permanent)

    s4dd : Last Warning.
    elvis2002 : Last Warning.

    Anyone else want to be a martyr?
