I don't give a shit if anyone smokes because it's your lifestyle choice, not mine. If you go off into a less populated area or a designated smoking area, that's cool because if non-smokers come into those areas, it's easy to deviate away from. I just hate smokers who are so arrogant that they...

FFS there are plenty of open areas in any uni where you can smoke and not offend anyone. Why is that people insist on being tryhard rebels and smoke where it says "No Smoking"? Trust me, people enforce the rules, might not be an authority figure but why should others have to be subject to the...

Law may have a bigger workload but although law content is difficult, it is probably easier to grasp for the average student than any engineering subject.

I'd seriously get a jumper from one of those Indian Uni's which provide the online, mail-order Medicine degrees.

You will actually be suprised at how attentive lecturers are regarding who attends their lectures. They may not know you by name so it might not change a 49 into a 50 directly. However, I had one lecturer who based the amount of help he gave outside official contact hours on whether he...

I recommend not applying for a job until you have been at uni for at least half a semester. You often don't settle in as readily as you think you will, even if you think you are prepared for the uni challenge. This will also give you time to work out your routines. I personally found my body...

So you stuck a prostetic vagina over a man's arsehole then?

It was given the lappy 3 years ago for my 18th. Considering it wasn't my money, it never bothered me. I know it's not a great comp by any means but it was a lot gutsier than it sounded on paper. It has done an alright job for what I initially wanted it for.

Thanks guys for all your help :). I'm leaning towards the first computer package, what Shinji said was my gut feeling so I'm glad to know I wasn't wrong there. I know Dell put an astonishing amount of crap as all the computers in my house (other than my current laptop which is a Toshiba) are...

lol. I;ve got the BigPond setup too and I would get about the same amount of signal. Unfortunately in a 5 person household with 3 computers always hooked to the net and a little bro always playing Wii online, the connection gets raped :(.

What do you guys think of this? Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad Processor Q9650 (3GHz, 1333FSB, 12MB) Pre-Loaded Genuine Windows Vista(R) Home Premium 64 bit OEM Version Microsoft(R) Works 9.0 (Does Not Include Microsoft(R) Office 2003/2007 Software) 2-year XPS Premier Service with 1-year...

Thanks guys :). I can spend about $2200 thanks to Krudd's spending spree and 21st birthday money. To Psycho_Nerd, haven't got a PSN atm but once I get all the wifi in my house optimised, I most probably will get it. I'll let you know.

Hi! I'm looking to buy a new desktop computer and before I go an blow all my well earnt savings, I want to make sure I'm getting a machine which will fulfil my needs comfortably. I study Mining Engineering so most of my computing has been dedicated to heavy Excel usage (everything from basic...

As a South Australian, I am always in two minds about "Media Nick". I often find many of his political campaigns (particularly the ones back in his state political career) to be shonky and aiming to garner votes on amusement factor, rather than the issue at hand. Having said that though, it...

The humanities will allow me to eloquently fill out a Centrelink form.
