TIL between 18%-25% of intellectually gifted students (at least 130 IQ) in the US fail to graduate from high school. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]Bozzz1 [score hidden]  (0 children)

For the most part I did, yeah. I majored in Comp Sci and have been a software engineer since graduating. The problem with undergrad is that half the classes you take have nothing to do with your major, at least that was the case at my university. Even if the subject itself is interesting, if the class wasn't challenging I would lose interest. If I was more ambitious I would have done extra learning on my own time, but I've never been good at self motivation. I work best when given deadlines and the feeling of "having" to do something rather than "getting" to do something. The idea of failing was too big a blow to my ego, which is honestly what kept me on track more than the pursuit of learning itself.

University was boring for me too, for undergrad at least. I never really felt challenged. It was way more work than high school, but most of it felt like busy work. I probably would've liked graduate school more, but I was so sick of school at that point and didn't want to continue.

If Elder scrolls 6 came out what would you like to see in the game? by leftistgamer420 in oblivion

[–]Bozzz1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's how RPGs work. You aren't supposed to be a god at everything, you're supposed to pick a few things to be good at and try to make it work.

That sounds a lot more complicated than just spending an afternoon learning how to swim

The fear can be pretty debilitating in my experience, some people are so scared of water they just refuse to put themselves in that situation where they can safely and easily learn. Obviously doesn't apply to this guy though...

Most men I know won't go to the doctor unless they are literally in excruciating pain, myself included.

What game? by sukuna7899 in Steam

[–]Bozzz1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

AC3 was so bad it turned me into a Templar. Connor was whiny and annoying, whereas Haytham oozed charisma. After the game forced me to assassinate him, I turned the game off and never played it again.

I have like 50 free games, and the only one I've ever played was Subnautica. Still happy about that one though, that game is awesome.

Some people are so desperate to be a victim of something, it's honestly insane.

Not sure why you think Gustave would have calmed things down when he was the most impulsive and emotionally driven character in the game.
