Oh ,that one. Well, universities in Norway use a system like that - passed exams are graded from A to E, and a failed exam is an F. The A is narrower than in American universities, though; If translated to a percentage, one would need 90% or more to get an A. To pass (E or higher), 40% is required.
 
Well, that is hot for a Norwegian (and perhaps for people in Nova Scotia as well), but is that really hot enough to cause problems for a server? How cold should it be in there? And how hot do you think it was at the peak? 35? 40?
 
In Antigonish, we run at 16 degrees. If it's 27 degrees in the server rooms, the servers themselves should be up around 35-40 degrees, which is more than enough to cause hardware failures.

We estimate it was 30 degrees last night.

Only 40? The standard here for schools is 55%.

The lowest passing score in my course is 70%. Pretty easy to fall under that.
 
Our highschools here use:

100-93 =A
92-87 = B
86-75 = C
74-70 = D
Below 70 = F (fail)

@ Loosey-- Wow, that is quite hot!  Hope your servers survived that ok.

I'm not on Ubuntu 11.04 - it took me over a day to get it properly installed. The bastard kept crashing, so I had to completely wipe my laptop, load Windows 7 (<_<), load Ubuntu 10.10, then upgrade over the top of that. It just would not work any other way.

Bah. Half of the 15-minute evening news was used on some wedding in London. Are there no wars going on in the world?

That's 7 and half minutes. Imagine spending the entire morning with live action from the thing.  :down:

Damn!  I have a Tosh tablet that I was wanting to install that on.  I hear that 11.04 has some good touch screen stuff to it.

Meh.
 
Ahh, it's nice starting the Sunday with coffee and reading the Swedish newspapers the day after Sweden's first tournament defeat against Norway in ice hockey  :D

It has this thing called Unity Bar (or something like that) and I can see how that has come about to be "touch-screen" friendly. I'm not too keen on it, personally. You Cain go back to good old Gnome (which I so much prefer).

I don't understand how that happened. I mean.... Just look at previous games.
