Pariah Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Slightly less inhospitable than Planet P, though, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 P ain't a planet. And I think we won that tournament? Something about a World Championship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 One page down. Three to go. And a mess of labs, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Grades are all in, with just under three hours to spare before the deadline. Now to clear the other paperwork I've put off until after I got the grading done. Ideally I can do literally nothing tomorrow if I want.

L. Marcus Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 ... Are you done with the Superdraft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 No. I have my Interference to take, and I will take it. Hopefully tonight, tomorrow at latest. I've just had all my CPU cycles eaten by grading for the last five-six days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Time to upgrade your CPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 It's old enough that no further upgrades will be posted. I'd have to replace it. And the new ones don't interface with the memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 That might be a blessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I did. I've already conferred with the Universe, and we came to the conclusion that I know too much and must be killed. That's on a relatively low priority, though, since the social environment is such that no one of importance pays attention to me. It's called the "Cassandra Effect".

As I understand it, Cassandra was a prophetess cursed that her prophesies would be true, but no one would listen. That doesn't gel with what you said above. Or am i missing something?
