    Hi

    Is anyone else having trouble with the internet? I heard it was off in certain apartment buildings. Now it's on again here in Avoca, but I still can't get into MSN (it says the computer is not connected to the internet), or Firefox for all that matter. Chrome works though. Earlier I could only use chrome on and off, now it's been working for ten minutes anyway.

    I think there's a technical fault on campus. I was in the Rye Hall PACR earlier, and the document I was working on froze. "Curse you, Steve Ballmer!" was the first thing that I thought, but then Firefox crashed. And then the guy watching the place told us they were having problems and to bare with them. That was at 15:22 - I know because the irrecoverable recoverable file was stamped with it. :pac:

    There's also a problem with Arts block computers, too. Some (maybe all?) of them think they're running unlicensed versions of Windows. I saw a sign up on Rye Hall saying that they're running maintenance on it tomorrow morning.

    Did you turn on the Master Volume on the taskbar? I noticed that the computers are all muted by default, for some reason.

    is the internet still out? I'm in Avoca btw


  • Registered Users Posts: 111 ✭✭A Changer


    There seem to be some intermittent blackouts in the PACRs, but I've no idea about the situation in the apartments. I commute, so I've idea, sorry!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,810 ✭✭✭Seren_


    The joys of living on campus. How I do not miss it.

    And WTF @ someone watching porn in the common room. Seriously.

    Edit: Forgot to say that I saw the welfare posters in the Arts Block earlier, they're looking good! Awareness w00t ^__^

    Never said there was anything wrong with watching porn, just that the common room isn't exactly the best place for it :P

    Oh, anyone know where the Spanish Department Noticeboard is? I've been looking for aaaages*:/



    *once or twice

    How long have you been studying Spainsh & you don't know where the noticeboards are? They are located left to Sinead's office (Rm35), or on the wall of Rm 34. You really should check these boards everyday.

    Thanks!

    Just got an email from my head of department entitled moodle comment and asking (demanding) me to meet him tomorrow.

    I'm thinking it's about a moodle rape that I got last sem,ester but I'm freaking out now. Especially because I hate people who moodle rape, always have and then someone went and got me really pissing me off, the lecturer was apparently already giving out about it to another class and now the head of dept want to talk to me?! What?!

    I think I'm about to cry...

    Is that for Economics by any chance? I know a lad who was called before the Head as well last semester for the same thing. It was a pretty harsh comment in his case though. The worst they will do is probably tell you to write an apology to the whole class on the forum.

    I've never understood why you can't delete a comment or edit it past 30 minutes after posting. It would save so many embarrassing things being written on forums

    I already did that as soon as I found out. Which was unfortunately after the 30mins!

    And nope, it was in Law!
    Mine just said "I really enjoyed the class on fisting today ;)" but I know thats probably bad enough. I'm meant to be trying to make a good impression on the dept for various reasons and this stupid comment has probaly just f***ed up that chance with two of the most important people that I need. Why am I being punished for something someone else did to me?!

    Awwh no :( I reckon you'll be grand, sure all you can do is explain what happened and if you'v already written an apology then they should be reasonable like! *huggles*

    That's so sh1t! Poor you :( Best of luck for your meeting. And also +1 to what squishykins said.

    I heart this semester's english modules soooooo much \o/


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 7,439 Mod ✭✭✭✭XxMCRxBabyxX


    Thanks guys. Turns out another girl got the same email and she also got moodle raped so it's definitely about that.

    Really hoping tomorrow goes ok... :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,645 ✭✭✭Daemos


    Blimey, and I thought trying to explain why I needed to change tutorials was stressful

    Best of luck tomorrow


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,134 ✭✭✭Duddy


    The only thing you did wrong is that you left yourself logged in, thats the most they can punish you, bear that in mind! Don't back down:)

    Best of luck!

    Hey, has anyone else been having problems with the Naxos site on the library off campus proxy?
    It says that the licence is expired! I emailed the library to get confirmation.
    Hope it gets back up soon, I needs my free music!
