    IamNewie got a reaction from Musikman in Moto G or Nexus 5? [POLL]   
    Ok guys , so Im planning to buy my first android smartphone. There are 2 phones that Im interested in the moto G and the Nexus 5. Nexus 5 cost like $500 in here , while the moto G is about to be released but I still don't know the price yet but I'll predict that it will be sold like <$300 here for 16gb. I'll play several heavy games like real racing 3 and probably light games. I'm not kind of a big mobile gamer. I'm probably a power user , since I'll browse the web several times. We don't have LTE ready yet here but LTE would be optional since I rarely hangout with friends and use wifi more than mobile data. I'm not a power photographer too, but a decent camera would be fine for me.
     
    Edit :
     
    I forgot 1 thing , Im actually about to buy a gaming pc that would cost me like $1000 for full PC setup. So I'm really on a tight budget for a smartphone since I'm still using a blackberry which suck balls. So what do you guys think? Nexus 5 then wait for a few more months or Moto G that I could only wait for a few months less than buying nexus 5 to buy gaming pc?

    IamNewie reacted to GoodBytes in Is computer engineering hard?   
    Well here the thing, like bob345 essentially saying. It's hard, but you'll be motivated (as you said you are interested), that you'll have no problem studying hard for it. While for sure, like any program you go in, you'll have a couple of classes that you won't like, but the overall you will, as you'll find it interesting.
    The thing that you must know, is the reason why its hard, is not because it is hard just because the teacher wants to make it hard. It's hard because you have a lot to learn. At the same time, university will teach you how to think like an engineer, make you ask the right questions, solve problems. That's the hard part... at least for most.
    You need dedication, perseverance and motivation. These 3 are the key to succeed in: Engineering, Computer Science, heck.. any science related field, including any medical field. You have those 3, based on what your comments. You just need some encouragement, it looks like
    Basically, what we are trying to say is that if you go in engineering, there is no more partying around. You'll still have room for 'me time', you can have your 8h sleep every day, including final period. You just have to take university very seriously. It should be like your are working. Let's say you have a classes in the morning, from let's say 9:30 to I don't know.. 12:00, lets say... well many go home and relax, or go out with friends, but what you should be doing instead, is go at the library, even if it's first week of school, and study or at least, get yourself prepared for your classes. Prepare your notes, mark down professor office hours, e-mail, and such (go home if you prefer to study there.. but STUDY!). Like if you were at work. Then you can go home and relax, which you'll have time.
    That is what we mean by hard. Well also you need to be good in math, or at least decent in it. But it looks like you have that, else engineering wont' even be on your radar.
    But what if I fail?
    Fine, I'll give you a secret: College degree in computers is OPTIONAL. It sure will help you A LOT in getting a job, let alone an interview. But computers is still a field in it's early years. My relative told me that at work he knows 2 guys, who are really good at what they are doing, and only have a high school degree. How they did it? Simple, they self thought, did some freelancing work show cashing their skill, and nailed their interview. I mean you can see that it's clear that they work their ass off and have a lot of dedication, but hey it's possible. Bill Gates didn't finish college.
    That's what I do, and look how much I am on this forum, always blabbering about stuff, and never shuts up. Plus I work on my own personal project.
    People that don't take it as if it was their job, and instead relax, don't care, sometime do parties even... (unless they are exceptional ones), you see are the ones struggling. And again, nothing stops you in taking 1 less courses per semester, if it helps you getting good grades and reduce stress. That is what I do. I am happy with my grades. I sure do a lot better than when I took 5 courses per semester.
    I know it's scary at first.. me too I was scared. It was also quiet imposing, starting your first class, in one of those big classes with what it looked like hundred of student. While you saw many drop out during the semester, and eventually smaller classes by the second year, and that's scary.. you start to notice that people that drop out, genuinely had no idea what they initially got into, or their parents pushed them to go into something they didn't like, or go at clubs and party pretty much every day. Then the dust clears out, and you see pretty much a steady number of student, and depending on your field and college, it might feel like high school again, in terms of size. It's not that people got kicked out (ok well, maybe a few, but only a few), most changes programs, because they can't take their studies seriously, they think it's like high school, where you come home and play games on your PC, and such, and not actually studying (or as mentioned, didn't know what they got in).
    But you have right now, the ultimate weapon I put that in bold, in case you stop reading by now, to make you wonder what I am talking about. But yes you have the ultimate weapon... you know what you are getting into, and you can mentally prepare your self in the possible life style changing period. Making you prepared for college. You know what to do. And you'll start getting A's and B's everywhere...

    Not really. Some people (like me) just don't find him funny. I used to watch him, but it's redundant, irritating, and overall disheartening. Also, the fanbase is ridiculous by even spreading hate to other peoples videos that say "PewDiePie did this first" or other crap like that.
     
    If you enjoy them, that's great and keep enjoying them. Don't be one of those people who try to force your opinion down other people's throat and bringing hate to other parts of the internet.
