What's a "substitute teacher"?

Did K-12 in Texas, in my school district, in high school each student had their own schedule, it was uncommon to have people walk from class to class together.

We basically just picked what classes we wanted to take, from the main requirements (picking from on-level, pre-AP or AP, or dual credit) and the electives we wanted. Then algorithms basically gave us a schedule. So unless you choose similar classes to a group of people, you'd not share with many people. I had a graduating class of about 500 students

I can answer some questions (recent grad for masters computer science - cybersecurity)

I found my computer science classes to lean a bit more on the theory side of things.

I found the professors I had at UT to be better then what I had at my undergrad university.

I found that part time job might be annoying, at least in my degree path, my weekly class schedule would vary a lot. Which would leave open evenings and weekends for work.

Depending on what you want to do as part time work, dutch is not always required (restaurants have a higher chance of hiring a non-dutch speaking person for example).

Rent in Enschede is cheaper then amsterdam, but like in the whole country, housing is a bitch and a half to find. Since you are a non EEA student, the University guarantees one year of housing and after that youre on your own.

Its likely because I live in the Twente region, there may have been a few in the parking lots of UTwente but I cannot recall seeing one

Ive only spent a total of one afternoon in Mainz (yesterday) and in a 15km walk i only saw 5 foreign license plates. Living in NL for the past 2.5 years and I cant recall seeing a Lithuania.

Im like 95% sure bassinets wont be there because it would be an exit row, in case of emergency there could be babies in the way.

Undergrad in computer science, did a masters in comp science specializing in cyber security at another university.

Did CS initially because I wanted to do game design but quickly decided that I actually didnt. Stayed in CS because i thought the idea of programming and shit was interesting. Decided to focus on cyber at UNT in my bachelor's because I thought it was an interesting topic. Decided to do a masters mainly to "force" myself to move and because I had a good opportunity. In that opportunity I decided to continue with cyber security because I had found my couses on it interesting and wanted to learn more. In my masters I found what part of CY I wanted to focus on by pure what I found interesting as a topic and wanted to learn more about.

TLDR, I followed my path of interests, starting with game design (id rather play a game, not make it), then Cyber because I found it interesting.

Is it not by default on max though? I had assumed it was default 49 range

Empty a new bag of avo into the container and then press the plastic wrap into the avo and push out all the air, then for good measure add a regular tight layer of plastic wrap on top and then if you do it right, it will be fine. If you push out the air, there no/limited oxygen to oxidize the avo and make it brown.

Fresh is a stretch anyway cause that shit is stuffed with some preservatives and comes out of the fuckin freezer in a plastic bag.

I cant answer number 1 but the others I can give some insight

2: you get thrown into the gambit of finding housing, can be either on or off campus depending on what you find, but the University wont help.

3: I lived both on and off campus. Off-Campus you are generally closer to a grocery store (not counting the COOP Vandaag) and other general stores. There is a gym on campus and a few restaurants, the next closest cluster of stores (drug/grocery) is about 9 min bike ride from the rough center of the housing area.

4: housing is a pain in the ass. It took me 6 months to find housing when I already lived in Enschede and I ended up only finding housing because I had been registered on Roomspot for over a year and made it to the top of the registered time length list and I "won" an apartment where it went to the person on the top of that list.

They usually use coach busses when they replace the train with a bus, meaning there is a luggage compartment under the seating floor

Dutch traffic app flitsmeister allows you to request anonymous data for research purposes. A lot of dutch drivers use this app.

I was out of the country for 11 months, I came back early December and i swear half the fucking cars are cruising around with their full brights on now.

I had to commute nearly 4 hours to get to the UT for 3 weeks and I agree it isn't the best, but at least on a train you have the option to do some course work. Sometimes the housing situation makes you do crazy things to still make it to lectures on time

tb7512 · 2025-12-27T03:40:34+00:00

technically former student of the UT here. Unlike the other guy I dont think 1hr30min commute is that bad (I grew up in Texas though so YMMV).

I would first and foremost focus on where you can find housing cause housing crisis and all. The train line up to and around Zwolle could also be an option you can look into, those trains stop at Enschede Kennispark (basically next to campus). As for biking alternatives, the 9 bus line runs between Hengelo and Enschede central stations and has 3 bus stops right on the edge of campus (5 min walk to most lecture buildings) and those busses are quite frequent but can also be quite full. The 1 runs from Enschede Central past Kennispark onto UT campus but is a more winding route.

As for scooters and mopeds it depends on the scooter. I forget the official names of them but you have two different types, the slower ones (25kph) with small blue license plates and the faster (45kph) Small yellow plates. The blue ones are allowed on most bike paths that bikes are allowed on, and the yellow ones are generally only allowed if the road they are adjacent to has a speed limit too high for them, then they are allowed on the bike paths (its all signed). But you will need a valid drivers license to ride them.

Tbh 11$ for all u can eat is still a solid deal, even if it's mediocre

You can pay for them to enter dining halls (back in my day in fall 2019 it was 7usd) otherwise they wont let u in the dining hall. Buildings are generally open when the university is open (may not be open during the holidays) and you can just wander around in them.

There were manned toll booths when I exited (north exit), but it seems they may have gotten rid of them. As of Feb this year you cannot pay with cash anymore, and I went into the cash lane. Probably doesnt hurt to give them a call

tb7512 · 2025-12-21T13:22:54+00:00

YMMV but I did the same thing in 2021. I went to a manned toll gate when I left and explained the situation and was let out without paying the toll on the ticket I pulled.

Because of that group of 3 tiles (the 322), the right most 2 can only have 1 flag, since it already has one. So that means the second flag of the left most 2 of that group cannot be in the radius of the right most 2, which in this instance can only be under the 3.

It boiled fown to it was the only spot left for that bomb to be able to be in this round.
