What university, course and assignment are you doing?

Say Computer Science!
Computer Science - Games Technology

My assignment is that I have to create a working game level in a program called Virtools.
I can not STAND this program. It is so glitchy and broken it is stupid.

The course is more for "hardcore" game coding. But in the first year, they want us to get a feel and idea of other things before the programming.

Ouch! We have do more general stuff like Java and C programming. We had to do a java game this term. Do you do any mathematics? One part about CS is the mathematics which is horrible. Programmer first, mathematician nil. I did a turn based java game (modelled like red alert) which was pretty cool!
Not "ouch". I enjoy it!

This year, we have done:

Java
Perl
HTML >.>
C#

Next year it will be more:
C++
C#

Which is good! :D
There is a lot of maths involved, which isn't fun...

Waste of time...

Most everything in life.

Problem with being a history major is after about the fifth or sixth doomsday prediction that didn't come true, even THOSE aren't exciting anymore.

Not a waste of time: Playing with kittens! (Or puppies. Or whatever cute animal you like. ^^)

-Acting homework. For gods sake, why do I need homework in an acting class?
-Texting. I spend way to much time texting. It ruins my life.
-Keeping track of all the damn berries on Pokemon. Acting homework wouldn't be a waste of time if i had more time not keeping track of berries.
-Being a pokemon-obsessed history major.

Not a waste of time
-Arguing with girlfriend via text, which adds variety to life.
-Going to the pet store just to play with a dog because you miss yours

A lot of things, really.
- Replying to strangers on an online board.
- Clicking on Pokemon eggs in hopes people will click on yours.
- And other things like that.

Not a waste of time to me? Writing (though most of the time its fanfiction, which won't get me anywhere in life anyways xDD)

This thread is a waste of time

By the sounds of it, you're the kind of person who shouldn't be wasting their time on PC XD
But whatever, umm Learning Science as a cumpolsury subject and all branches of it.
Advanced Maths [I couldn't care less what the area of that triangle is :/]

I think this thread contradicts itself. Making a list of everything that you believe to be a waste of time is in itself a waste of time.
I think everything I do on a daily basis is a waste of time excluding eating and other essential activities. Life is pretty much wasting as much time until you die.

What an interesting thread. I love writing down furiously what I feel is a waste of time, it gets so much done!
  • PC
I find sitting on a forum you hate and whining about it, trying to troll it and failing a waste of time.
