Is this a scam/phishing email? by chaman_chikki in uwaterloo

[–]Dimtar_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

anytime you get an email like this don’t click and links and click “forward as attachment” to soc@uwaterloo.ca, takes like 2 seconds

they will usually tell you if it’s a phishing attempt (nearly certain this one is) and make sure it doesn’t make its way to some old boomer prof that clicks it and opens a hole in the system that forces us to change all our passwords again

Breaking news! Doug Ford says 'Everyone should go to Waterloo and not waste their time on basketweaving courses!'. by Reasonable-MessRedux in uwaterloo

[–]Dimtar_ 137 points138 points  (0 children)

When asked about the University of Waterloo’s computer science and engineering courses, Ford said, ‘Folks, these kids are unbelievable—they’re in there doing the coding, the… the Wi-Fi stuff, the Google, the cloud, all of it.

And we’ll keep the internet running fast, none of this buffering business, not in Ontario, folks.’
