Is there any way that I could break (corrupt it of some sorts?) a pp file to buy myself time, since I did forgot to make presentations earlier?

I believe you can change the file extension to .txt or something, edit it with notepad, remove some text, change extension back to default and it would be corrupted.

Thats what I tough when I remembered about them

 

open it in notepad and delete a line

Yup, open in notepad, delete random line of code, save as, turn in, this doesn't work if your teacher knows about it, ie is me or was a bad student beforehand.

Should buy you a day.

 

 

Thanks, that worked!

This is one of the stupidest, most immature ways of handling this situa....

 

Huh....

 

Never thought about this...

 

It would be so simple...

 

The teachers would never know...

 

Except that my teachers would mark it late, because nobody got time for corrupted files.

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.
