General OT Thread #31: Wild Wish Offense Was As Potent As Fel

[Minnesota]

I feel so overwhelmed right now in terms of career choices. I'm a junior and still haven't declared my major and really don't have much of an idea of what I want to go in to. I like history and that is by far the closest major I have to completing, but I really don't think there's much you can do with a history major. I talked to an academic counselor today and he mentioned that there's a new sports management major now and that it might be worth looking in to. There's two things that I know I love, and that's video games and hockey, all aspects of it, not just the game itself. I think I'll look in to that sports management major as well as a business major, and also digital media arts major, maybe designing video games or something like that. Problem with all those majors is that outside of a couple Econ classes and Stats, I haven't taken many of the major requirements so that likely means staying in college an extra year to become a super senior, and with the increased work load that means possibly needing to quit my job. I don't love UPS, but I've always thought of it as a back-up plan in case things don't work out in college/finding a job and I'd hate to have to quit there, especially if I don't find a job after completing my major. Then I'm really screwed.

Are you involved with any student organizations? If not, join some. They'll give you a better idea of what certain career fields involve.

Otherwise a trip to the career resources center never hurts.

I'm a graduated history major and I regret it (for the most part...I had wonderful professors, classes, and classmates) because there's just so many people with degrees now that employers are looking for things that are so specific instead of people who just have degrees now. If you do go that route, though, I think you would find more success if you tried to make more connections in that field WHILE you're in school. Knowing people is what I think makes up a majority if job seeking success.

When it comes to shopping at Target, I think I'm the worst person ever when it comes to choosing which check-out line to go in. I always end up behind someone who takes forever or an incompetent employee.

Always stand behind someone that's close to paying or the line with middle aged men. Men just want to get the **** out of there

Hi, how has everyone been ?

Just sent a surprisingly large spider to a watery grave because it was dumb enough to think the shower was a good place to hang out.

Was planning on going there tomorrow actually. I have a list with a few professors in my prospective majors so I'll definitely be shooting them some emails and hopefully setting up a time where I can come talk to them too.

Good. Any luck with any ladies?

 

[Sharppi]

I'm seriously considering moving to US to work. I'm so bored with my current life.

So, last night I noticed that my external HD didn't support OSX. Had to change the format. Lost 350 GB of **** I've gathered over the years.

****.

 

[Avder]

There's probably a utility out there that could have at least given you read access to the stuff on there.

 

[Lapa]

Yeah, I could read the stuff but couldn't save anything in there, which is pretty essential for me.

Oh well.

 

[Avder]

If you look deeper I'm willing to bet there was a way to get write access as well.

 

[Lapa]

I googled about it, found some article saying that OS doesn't support the format that the HD used (previously used with Windows 7). Couldn't save anything I downloaded from the browser to the hard drive, couldn't copy+paste anything, couldn't cut+paste anything there. I understood that the only way to fix this is to reconfigure the filing format on the HD, which meant that I had to erase all the files in it.

Found instructions on Apple web site, tried it, it worked. I had to use some Utility tool which had only an "Erase" option.

My internet has been going slow recently.

Just got into the router and found out it's been broadcasting 802.11b, instead of 802.11g.

 

[Avder]

802.11g is a giant trainwreck. So don't discount the possiblity that router interference is also a cause.

I used to have an 802.11a router. Never had any issues with it because, almost literally, nobody uses that part of the spectrum. Damn thing just randomly died one day. I was sad.

What the hell is it with Chrome and viewing images? I posted the Brodin gif and viewed it just fine, now when I come back in and try to view it again it's just a little pice of colored paper icon and it won't let me view it. Same thing happens with various other images on here sometimes.

I use Firefox and I can't view it.
