This looks really interesting, except for any class that provides no proof or certificate of completion.  This is actually really cool and I think I'm going to look into this.

I signed up for Introductory Human Physiology which starts in later January for 12 weeks and Why We Need Psychology starting June 1 for 6 weeks.  I'm a bit on the fence with the last one though as there's no confirmation as to whether or not completing the course will give me any verification as to my completion.

I haven't played it since February and I really don't find the appeal of it anymore except as a cheap and quick arcade shooter.

Why buy it when you can just torrent it? That's what I did and I have 12gb of RAM now.

Torrenting is really only for the super large volumes which only super computers can handle.  Your standard browser is fine for up to 16 GB.

Currently my computer is a sack of stuff.


Since I'm too cheap and can't be bothered, I bought 8gb of ram and am planing on buying a 128gb SSD for it.

My only concern is that the processor will bottleneck the ram.

Are you sure you bought the right RAM for your laptop?

And can you even upgrade the hard drive in your laptop?

These are things that you need to like quadruple check for upgrading your laptop.  RAM isn't hard to upgrade but your storage is up in the air for most laptops, especially if your laptop is older.

ok, I was watching the news the other day and my brother said that there were no more Father-daughter celebrations allowed at a Cranston high school. They said it was discrimination because fatherless girls could not go.
/discuss

That's not true.  I know plenty of fatherless girls who went to those dances usually with their best friend's/family friend/other male relative/male guardian.  I think this is an absurd decision and it isn't discriminatory at all.
