  1. @haganbmj Am I correct in saying that engineering lecture is the most pointless waste of time in college?

    1. @loak Yes, and I can only imagine that yours is just as boring as ours too. D: - It's the one class where I literally learn nothing. The circuitry we've covered these last two lectures has been basic Ohm's Law and such, and otherwise it's all just random knowledge.

    2. @loak Oh god, not the General Enge classes. They are so absolutely pointless. "Oh hey, flowcharts, cochlear implants, isometric drawings, fifty other things that we'll only ever use for a week of class at most," etc. Why does CS have to be in the Engineering department? >:I

      1. @enriquetsb Oh geez - you're the CS track. Yeah then, this is completely worthless. Are you in CS1114 at the moment then? Or did you take that last semester (or bypass it)?

        1. @haganbmj Yeah, I'm in CS 1114. One of the two classes I actually like this semester :P

          1. @enriquetsb Haha yeah - Took that last semester and actually enjoyed it. It was a worthwhile class I feel, the testing system was kinda screwy though. You guys would have just finished the Wall addition, yes?

            1. @haganbmj Yep, we just finished up with adding on the Wall. The fifth project is probably going to be interesting, I've heard it's just improving on the design however you want. I'm planning on adding in a private message system for some bonus creativity points :P

              1. @enriquetsb Yeah - it's a free choice assignment. We had to do 2 minor additions and one major (major meaning it needed like two java classes or something). Most people dis bi-directional friend adding for a minor (adding to both lists when you add a friend) - just because it only takes a line or two. For my major I added a global wall with updates whenever a user altered their information or posted a new status. Worked alright and got me the credit. Waiting for my C++ class now on account of a canceled English class - another hour to burn :/

                1. @haganbmj Ahhh, sounds nice. I have about an hour until my cs class too, just wasting it online as usual :P

                  1. @enriquetsb Yep, yep - ended up grabbing some pizza and I'm just waiting by the door now with some people from my canceled English class lol - seems like the internet (and RDN especially) are the best ways to "waste" my time now.
