  At my uni they’d take the highest grade of the class and reset that as the max points and grade from there.

  So if max points on an exam was 120 and no-one scored higher then an 85, then an 85 would be an A, 75 a B, etc.

  I’m a mediocre student but an amazing test taker and used to compete on math teams. So some of the math heavy engineering courses I would get perfect exam scores and sometimes the prof would ignore me as the highest grade. I was frustrated at first because my A didn’t mean the same as someone’s but I realized later it was to stop me from getting beat up by a bunch of 30 yo guys.

  Factorio never goes on sale, but Shapez and shapez 2 are on sale and they are in the same genre but more beginner friendly.

  When I moved from the US to NZ I got way superior service then I’d ever had in the US and attempted tipping a “por boir” but they refused it and said if I really felt like giving extra they had a charity I could give to.

  Unfortunately I have started seeing tips being asked for by POS in Sydney and Auckland and it made me mad and sad.

  Engineer here: mostly use i, but have seen j used plenty. First time I saw j used was by a maths professor.

  I have a bit of an exhibitionist kink. If I thought I could make more money then I currently do, I totally would.

  We would have also gotten smart ass comments had they said “you don’t need and internet connection”

  The news is you can play offline.

  Most (free) software you can download an installer to a file then copy that file onto another machine. Which means being able to install without an Internet connection. I work with a bunch of expensive software, and while this is still true, if you are offline you have to fetch an activation code. I have discs for several assassin’s creed. I don’t remember if they needed Internet access to activate or not…
