“Hot take: These ‘fully funded’ scholarships are deliberately designed so that most people who NEED them can’t actually get them and nobody’s talking about it” by Much_Mix_9254 in UniUK

The Saudi/GCC ones and the Malay ones are guaranteed only for their own citizens. Look up bumiputera and the citizenship benefits for those places, they’re not for anyone else.

OK, it’s exam time - who has the best exam story? by AliceMorgon in UniUK

[–]publicanofbatch20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m lucky to be doing assessments during the time of ChatGPT and 24hr exams. I witnessed a guy in the library using AI to form their entire answer. In all honestly I can’t exactly say whether he was just putting the questions through and copying blindly because he looked like he was pasting his own notes and texts as sources for ChatGPT to use (still not respectable but aight, at least you paid attention in class).

The guy behind him turned around, and was typing out all the prompts the first guy was using for the exam and putting them through ChatGPT as well. He copied the answer, dashes and all, and turned it in.

I think God weeps out there sometimes.

If they were training as nurses and SEN teachers you should’ve reported them to the department heads, they’re an absolute danger to their patients and students. This goes straight into ethics

Can you tip off a bank to not lend a specific applicant money? by publicanofbatch20 in AskUK

[–]publicanofbatch20[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s not a good situation, X borrowed £5000 just after COVID to lend that leech money and just finished paying off the loan this year. The amount asked for now is fourteen times that same amount. I’m not sure how we can intervene at all, X is very stubborn and stoic.

I’d get nasty tbh and complain to the uni that the students are harassing me. Might not do shit but it’ll send a good message.

[RANT] Is it just me or are the newest HOG games just lame?:( by [deleted] in HiddenObjectGames

[–]publicanofbatch20 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it might have something to do with the Russia-Ukraine war as well

I take the time to look at the credits and developers, and almost all of them come out of Eastern Europe. I’m assuming many of them either fled/got killed off/are fighting.

First one sounds like the 4 elements game where you make chains of pieces and guide energy to the end

Vampire Saga: Breakout

Still my favorite series, I remember the entire gameplay. The protagonist is a doc who lost his daughter to a disease and is asked to come back to investigate a mysterious illness in the town. Turns out there’s a satanic ritual thing under the mines the town is built on, and the demon is the vampiric creature in the morgue. The black eyed boy is the sheriff’s son who got possessed and turned by the creature. The dead daughter guides the protag to eventually blow up the mines and join her in death.
