I don’t know how to test that, but it works fine with pressed CDs. Well, only up to some speed.

- Comment on I was kicked out of University, the college I went to (and wish to return to) only accepts grades A and B for same subjects from prior studies, *including from themselves*. 1 month ago:
It’s just that if I re-apply, they’ll treat me as a new student all over again (and as such they only allow admission into the first year). Their own courses don’t get any special treatment, aside from not requiring me to also send them syllabi for those.
This means failing in the 3rd year would be a disaster as I’d have to do the entire 3 years all over again. Or go to a different college. There’s basically one for people who failed the college I went to (many such cases).
Anyway, to sum it up:
- For students during the current study, anything above F is accepted, whether you were previously kicked out or not.
- From any previous studies, only A and B are accepted.

Your prior 1st school credits (below As and Bs) will still be at 1st school so you won’t have to worry about them being accepted as transfer credits because you’d not be transferring them in from outside as the those low grade credits are already inside.
That is what my post was about. The people at study department at 1st school told me they won’t accept grades below B, including what I already earned at 1st school. They just won’t count when I go there again, it’s treated the same as transfer.
In case of 2nd school, basically any other college would most likely accept any lower passing grades.Any chance you have enough IT experience to get a junior role so you can at least be growing in your field while you’re out of school?
That would be no, unfortunately.

different courses
The point is, they won’t even accept the courses I already passed (which are all below B except for English), because this rule is just applied universally. So it would be easier to re-take what I had until now since I already know something.
In this case, idea 2 would probably make more sense since I also know the instructors tend to give out the same assignments between different years.Unless you meant to attend an easier college with the required courses.
But also it is too late. The only colleges taking students at this time of year are ones that have to do 2nd rounds due to low numbers, which very much is nothing IT-related.Anyway, bigger issue is I’d have to pay for 2 extra years (they also don’t allow admission into a higher year).
every other school your original school accepts transfer credits from
That one is also funny. There’s no official list. The only requirement is A/B grade. If that is met, I can send a request to have those results accepted along with the courses’ syllabi, and then I’ll see based on their response.

- Comment on I can't get anything done. Either I get overwhelmed, distracted by absolutely anything, or suddenly loose interest in everything. The only thing that helps is fear from approaching deadline. 2 months ago:
Eh, I guess RX-only drugs make sense if they work. After all, you’re basically taking them under doctor’s supervision.
I used to take some meds for ADHD when I was a kid, but whatever it was (I think Concerta), all it did was make me sleepy.
Fun fact: Some commonly used drugs (in US) like Adderall are actually illegal here around Europe. - Submitted 2 months ago to rant@lemmy.sdf.org | 10 comments

Where I live, self checkout is usually behind a gate as well, where you have to scan your ticket for it to open.

Anyway, if you have directory-based music organization, Navidrome won’t take that sadly. However, it will take m3u playlists.
So I can just
ls playlistdir/* > Playlist.m3uand get that directory as a playlist. Simple, lazy solution.
Oh, you can also add internet radios to Navidrome.And one cool trick, which is also pretty good to test out Navidrome without effort, in Termux it is already in the repos, so you can just effort-free
apt install navidrome, run it and play around.Privacy

EnableInsightCollector = ‘false’
