Thank you, I try. Huge high fives all around.

The student didn't use a technical nor scientific process to address the scenarios from the original assigned reading. This is a psychology course grounded in logic and scientific processes. The student was asked to practice the use of researching positions and supporting arguments with data, prior research, and logical structures. The student did not do that work so it's an F, regardless of what they wrote or the position they take on the topic.
In my ethics class I made it clear from day 1 that some students would take or hold positions I disagreed with. I also made it clear that their work would be judged on the rigor of their reasoning and the quality of the use of supporting works, not my opinion. I failed some papers that I agreed with because they were emotional outbursts (like our OU student's work) and passed ones that I detested (because they used the right process and forms to argue a case).
If OU's leadership doesn't back the use of science, logic, and formal argument in a course designed to teach scientific principles, then the school isn't a University of Merit anymore. It's just a religious shit hole like Liberty University and any graduates should be treated as with as much regard. But it is in Oklahoma so the locals will likely be mostly okay with their children being ill educated if it protects their incorrect Bronze Age worldviews.
Having PERL be a shell style environment was hilariously slow. Entertaining, but slow.
I feel bad that I read that page in Chrome. I'm a failure of a techie.
Tomorrow I must atone by teaching more students terminal commands. Maybe using web API calls with cURL. Or get and some eviloverlord.com quotes?
During the era it wasn't rare to upgrade components on the motherboard and ISA/PCI bus cards. We'd had some relatively stable CPU socket standards and you'd do things like change out CPU and ram for upgrades.
Was this a stupid marketing gimmick? Oh yeah. Was it unreasonable to talk about upgrading a system at home? Not really. We did do it for a while.
The San Francisco systems have at least some of that. You're supposed to use a card to get in and out of the trains and you're charged by distance.
Most systems don't really have such a thing, though many have one way or time-based tickets (like 2 hours).
"I tried switching to Hannah Montana Special Arch Edition and it wasn't easy!" -- Is it ever easy? I dunno, but computers are complex things so trying any new approach is expected to take work. Picking a weird, unsupported, and possibly out of date software package isn't going to help the effort.
Look at that: putting remotely accessible sensors in your home opens it up to attacks. Who'd have thought?
I bought a single €2 snack while walking through a Christmas market. Other than that, it was a day of riding public transit (monthly pass), walking through parks, and eating a packed lunch.
Out of pocket total: €2.
People not knowing when to use 'is' and 'are' in English.
For reals, though? Mostly energy put into conversations, who spends the effort to initiate topics, and whether someone actually has hobbies other than just watching TV.
I used to eat my Jimmy Johns sandwiches like that a decade ago. Back when they were big and cheap sandwiches. It just made it easier to no have it fall apart as much.
I never stopped halfway, though. Once you begin, there should be no survivors.
