Thank you for this follow up response. I understand why the college does this now.

I feel for you that this means more work ahead for you. I wish you luck going forward.

The people at study department at 1st school told me they won’t accept grades below B, including what I already earned at 1st school. They just won’t count when I go there again, it’s treated the same as transfer.

Something is missing here.

Are they saying that [C and below is a failing grade] for every person that took that class forcing each of those people to retake the class? Or does the [C and below is a failing grade] only for students that didn’t score high enough to continue attending the school and the act they are telling you is your only path to rejoin the school by re-applying through the admissions process is the trigger for [C and below is a failing grade] for those classes?

We’ve sent probes to other worlds. There’s a very small chance we accidentally introduced some of Earths microorganisms to other planets that would still be around in 5 billion years after the sun. We’ve sent all kinds of stuff to Mars which will still be around when our sun turns into a Red Giant eating Mercury, Venus, and Earth. However Mars will have courtside seats to the sun at that point and be baked in high intensity heat and radiation, so I wouldn’t have much hope of any life we introduced there surviving.

We’ve also sent probes into Jupiter. There its unlikely anything could live we brought, but who knows? Lastly we put a lander on Saturn’s largest moon Titan. Its not very hospitable to Earth life there though. Its our best bet though. The only other chances life from Earth would survive is all of the probes we’ve sent out into interstellar space.

The point is, they won’t even accept the courses I already passed (which are all below B except for English), because this rule is just applied universally.

Who cares if they don’t accept courses you’ve already passed. You’re not planning on graduation from 2nd school. You want to graduate from 1st school. When regular admissions open up again in the future for 1st school, you go there and transfer the credits in you earned at and 2nd school. Your prior 1st school credits (below As and Bs) will still be at 1st school so you won’t have to worry about them being accepted as transfer credits because you’d not be transferring them in from outside as the those low grade credits are already inside.

The only colleges taking students at this time of year are ones that have to do 2nd rounds due to low numbers, which very much is nothing IT-related.

Do you have nothing bu IT-related credits you have to earn for you degree? You’re completely done with 100% of your Math, History, Art, and Science credits no related to IT? If you have any of those non-IT credits you still need to earn, thats what you can do this year at 2nd school. Next year you can go back to 1st school and work on IT related credits again.

That one is also funny. There’s no official list.

Well I guess this is one area the USA is better. There are agreed standards that allow for nearly seamless transfer of student’s credits between large groups of universities and colleges.

The only requirement is A/B grade. If that is met, I can send a request to have those results accepted along with the courses’ syllabi, and then I’ll see based on their response.

Okay, so take courses at 2nd school, do well in 2nd school classes, and send the request to have those credits accepted at 1st school next year.

Otherwise it sounds like your best choice is to give up on school this year, and truly commit yourself next year. Any chance you have enough IT experience to get a junior role so you can at least be growing in your field while you’re out of school?

I’m only familiar with the USA regional accreditation process of schools which this doesn’t sound like, so I’ll have to ask questions about the rules in your system:

To study there again, I’ll have to go through regular admission procedure again, but it’s too late to sign up for next year.

Okay its too late to go through the regular admissions procedure for the school you studied at (which I’ll call the 1st school), have you confirmed its also too late to go through the regular admissions process at every other school your original school accepts transfer credits from?

If at least one school would let you go through the regular admissions process (not try to transfer into that 2nd school), then just attend that 2nd school taking different courses you need for your degree earning As or Bs grades, then transfer those newly gained credits back to your 1st school. So not this year, but next year go through the regular admissions process of your 1st school.

I can’t think of any version of immortality that wouldn’t eventually be a living hell.

Being immortal doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t feel discomfort or pain. Even if you do have a version that doesn’t feel pain or discomfort, you could still be trapped, unable to move, in complete darkness, for all eternity.

Step 3. Hope that if people are given the ability that they can live without consuming anything

If human immortality is widespread to a larger population, its even worse. People stop dying, but resources don’t increase. Some versions of immortality also mean humanity becomes sterile. So the population never decreases because people alive today will still exist, but never another new generation.

Step 4. Did i immortal so well now we are all going to have to figure out how to inhabit the interior of the sun.

An immortal “human inhabiting the sun” will mean a human the enters the outer corona, but never having their flesh burn because of the magic immortality. However all your clothes would be burned off long ago. So it would be a bunch of naked immortal humans slowly descending toward the core of the sun eventually being wrapped around the dense pure-neutron core where the affects of gravity would be 100 billion times Earth gravity. You’d stick to it unable to move a single muscle. Matter would be pressing again you all over your body at that same strength. Eventually pure neutrons would encase you inside the core of the star. you’d be stuck in the solid heart of a star for all of eternity.

If we had a larger sun, you might have had the chance to escape when the sun goes supernova and be cast out into the galaxy, but you’ve got bad luck to be stuck in our solar system and our sun isn’t big enough to explode as supernova. Instead, our sun will eventually become a white dwarf, a small star slowing bleeding its remaining heat out into space. This process will take literally trillions of years. Eventually when that heat is gone our sun will be a black dwarf. We have no idea what happens after black dwarf because none exist because the universe isn’t old enough yet! Our universe has only been around for 13.8 billion years.

So I hope you enjoy your immortality stuck inside the heart of a cooling star unable to move a muscle with the rest of naked humanity mixed in with you.

I’ll be keep my mortality knowing I’ll be happily gone in less than 50 years, thanks.

How long will it take for the moon to drift far enough away from earth that the lunar month extends by a day? Or two days?

Not positive, but probably never. The explanation is even more weird. Given 50 billion years, the Earth rotation would slow and would become tidal locked so that one side of Earth is always facing the moon. The other side of Earth would never see the moon. However, in only 5 billion years our sun will expand and engulf all the inner planets including the Earth and the moon.

Up next is probably trump getting mad we’re ignoring his unfounded conspiracy rants and using abusing the cell phone Presidential Alert system that we’re not allowed to opt-out to shove it in our faces against our will.

That or he’s going to issue an EO for a federal poll tax to be paid directly to him, as a means of ensuring voter integrity.

So he would be checking off the 24th amendment to the Constitution as yet another amendment to violate. trump is going for the Pokemon method of fascism “Gotta violate them all”.

Can’t wait until I have to shelter ICE agents in my house under the penalty of law in violation of the 3rd amendment. /s

"The bad guys can be quicker,” Homan told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham Wednesday night.

“…this is why we have to shoot innocent people dead before they do anything illegal just to be sure ICE is safe”. - Homan probably

I think another thing IBM was counting on was OS/2 Warp came out about 6 months before Win95 so folks were expecting a radical change in OS.

“but at least you got free email and a homepage so you could put up HTML pages with animated GIFs“

Aw happier days. So much creativity and the ability to communicate with other humans. Meeting randoms was a fun gamble!

95% of people would put an “Under construction” gif and never another update to that web space.

The first web browser was free!! NCSA Mosaic! However since few new users had download capabilities (because they never used command line FTP before), there were software distributes making copies and selling those on store shelves for a few dollars.

To beat Netscape, Microsoft bundled Internet Explorer with the third edition of Windows 95.

Not quite accurate. Yes, at the time Windows 95 came out Netscape Navigator Personal Edition was selling on shelves for about $40-$50. If you bought Netscape Navigator Gold, it came with the Netscape browser and and WYSIWYG HTML editor which was a big deal back then because otherwise you’re using notepad to make your website.

Other WYSIWYG HTML editor sitting next to this on the self would be products like Hotdog or Hot METAL Pro:

However, Windows 95 at launch did NOT ship with Internet Explorer. For the launch release of Win95 to get Internet Explorer 1.0 you had to buy the addon package “Microsoft Plus: Companion for Windows 95” for $49:

Internet Explorer 1.0 sucked and Netscape was far superior for the day.

One other artifact from those days. There was another GUI operating system that was still around back then called OS/2. This was an IBM product from the 80s, and the last gasp of it occurred right before Win95 came out. IBM released OS/2 Warp (OS/2 3.0). A good chunk of the marketing was that it contained web browser (called WebExplorer). There were unsavy users buying OS/2 Warp thinking it was just an application when it was a whole replacement operating system.

What is the dollar figure of your highest interest bill and its interest rate?

Thanks for spelling HIPAA correctly, so many people get it wrong.

I always confuse what the HIP stands for, but always remember the last two are “Accountability Act” so “AA” at the end is easy to remember.

• A common insurance co-pay to see a Primary Care Physician (regular family doctor) is $40. That could mean going to the doctor or not for some folks.

• $20 would pay for five different 30 day prescriptions of common generic prescription drugs.

• $25 ($5 short) would buy more than a month’s worth of insulin.

• $20 will by 35lbs or rice. That’s well over 2 weeks worth of meals (at 2000 calories a day).

• $20 will pay for one month of mobile phone service with unlimited talk and text along with 4GB of data (as well as hotspot functionality)

• $20 would pay for 100 full charges on a very large ebike battery. Thats enough to go 7500 miles of range on average.

Do HIPAA protections still exist after the person is dead?

When I read the headline I was really confused why the brutal Sudanese militia “Rapid Security Force” was running across Ukrainian reporters on the African continent. It took me a second to realize this RSF was Reporters Sans Frontiers or in English “Reporters Without Borders”.

I’m encouraged that these Ukrainian reporters might still be alive and hope for their quick release from their Russian captors.
