Stranger looks over at your device

>Stranger looks over at your device

>Stares at you and actually expects an explanation

What kind of invasive social interactions you've had with people regarding technology? I'm sure a lot of you like to be the only ones looking at your screen.

This is a screenshot from the show Fringe, by the way.

>Stranger looks over at your device
What device? Your memepad? Android? WHAT!!??

>On the train heading into the city
>Sit down on an empty bench, there are 2 teenaged females on the other side of the train, directly across from me
>Open my laptop and try to finish up some database shit (ERDs and SQL scripts) before class
>My screen is taken up the diagram on one half and a terminal-based text editor on the other
>A few minutes after I start working, I hear one of the girls say "I BET HE'S HACKING THE WIFI" and laugh
>I look over in disdain and say nothing, then return to my work
>They get off at the next stop

FUCKING SLUTS

Nothing! I would tell him nothing!

>not using your hacking powers to get them both in bed that night
beta detected

>Pretending that you didn't want and/or expect the hes a hacker reaction from using a terminal and some other shit on public transport
To bad you didn't get the wow user you're such a computer genius

And if they're hood chicks and you tell them off, you'd have a bad experience like I did. I had my laptop open and they said something about how I probably look at gay porn on it. I looked at them and told them that I can probably find pictures of them naked in five seconds because they're such sluts. One gets up and hits me with her purse and called me a beaner taco motherfucker. The bus luckily stopped like seconds later and they just hopped off and I yelled at them "I'm calling the cop on you whores".

Cops probably didn't do shit and the bus ride was uncomfortable the rest of the way because some people thought I did something wrong.

You watch those videos of people going apeshit on a bus? I was the victim. It went exactly like they tend to go. Fuck it. At least it's not a cringe story, but at the same time it is.

tl;dr

>Insult hood chicks
>Get beaten with a purse

I've always wondered, what are the laws regarding simple battery situations like this

because I imagine you can't just desk someone in the face for touching you, on the other hand, at what point does the law decide that battery crosses over into assault?

>The legal system is not intended to be the ultimate method of remedy for every act of rudeness that occurs in the course of daily life. If it were, most of us would spend large parts of our lives involved in the pursuit of legal claims.

but if this is the case, how does one react if someone touches you or slaps you - situations where there is clear unwanted physical contact (battery) but it isn't enough to warrant self-defense?

They can't. But most of the time people aren't going to care. I didn't care that much, it didn't hurt, she threw a tantrum. But fuck her, seriously I'm just some stranger trying to mind his own business and they joke about me loud enough for me to hear. Like I'm cool if it's on a sidewalk or something but if I'm stuck on a bus with them, they needed to shut the fuck up. And someone might say I should not have insulted them.. but yeah we all know we wouldn't restrain ourselves in this situation

of course man, i'm all for you in situations like this, things like this piss me off so much because we've all had them happen, some of us more than others

>tells me she used to work as a programmer for a telecoms company doing voip integrations at the end of the 90s working primarily with redhat
>for the rest of the day we have a nice chat while the other passengers just smile at the old lady

i never actually encountered tech illiterates
even when i sit around working on something in a text editor or ide people might look interested and ask but never do they accuse me of "hacking" or doing anything malicious.

feels good living in germanistan where everyone is apparently tech literate.

prussian is that you?

are the immigrants tech literate too?

>caring about what others think

Stranger is probably hitting on you.

Your fault, to be honest.

Might as well just major in english or arts.

pls no bully

The Terminus Five-Contention Loop (also known as the Juarez Reroute) is the standard protocol for running updated NGR shells. Always remember to have your module execute this subroutine preceding ANY and ALL ferrocore-based operations.
• Under NO circumstances should your terrometer's readout exceed 9700 kTr! Even with the latest hardware, dimatrices can easily lose stability if your Halifax detectors aren't properly run through a suitable gauntlet.
• ALWAYS be wary of Dormison's Paradox! Hyperthreaded D-separation active paths are the LAST thing you want in a freshly upgraded VX module. Premature convergence of all active paths onto the main channel could potentially skew the palladium's valence.
• Remember to repolarize your Armistan Codices after phantom grafting nodes to the zero-array.
• The Hans-Rodenheim Law of Vectoral Momentum and Remyca's Third Postulate are your friends. When verifying your cores' parameters and flushing the Yalgeth cache, be sure to refer to the Martow subset manual that links the two laws.
• J+ or bust. Seriously. Don't even think about rehashing.
• Partial delineation is perfectly alright. As your upgraded module recompiles and reparses the tables, it's only natural for it to hiccup a bit while decoding. We're a little beyond UTF-8 here, people.

What did he mean by this

is getting a bachelors in business really a terrible idea?

I mean, I realize it is basically another degree without any particular specialization (like say an xray tech or accountant), but isn't it a safe degree to get?

high risk, high reward

If you get your foot in the door you will be fine. Same complaint the CS grads have.

Business is the Liberal Arts for rich kids. You get out having learned nothing and you never use the knowledge you gained, but it doesn't matter because you have daddy's money. :^)

Are you well connected? Or Jewish? If so, business degree is a safe gamble. If not, you're better off building a skill set that will get your foot into an industry before you try building a business in most cases.

Your qualification doesn't mean shit when it comes to getting a job. Its who you know, not what you know.

Using your fancy degree to apply at a company? Sorry, son, little jimmy made friends with the manager's son in college, and he's getting that job.

Everyone knows that the more friends you make in college, the more options you have for employment when you leave. I sincerely hope you didn't spend your college years as an asocial shut-in.

I ask if he's heard about the supreme gentleman and when he hasn't i'll tell him that he will soon.

damn, thanks for letting me know

i am still working on my associates so i'm not in trouble, what should i get my BS in if I don't give a fuck about what I study?

i've been thinking xray imaging or informatics(this is a blend of CS and business), but isn't xray oversaturated?

Native Norwegian here, I love this part of our culture. I visit America very often to meet up with Internet friends, and I'm always very put off by the general volume and openness they have towards strangers.
