What should I buy to get around campus
| Walk, you fat fuck.
| A pair of legs or a mobility scooter.
| Bicycle, even if you don't want to exercise biking a mile and a half is easy
| you need to pay extra for a motorcycle?
| Prolly walk

Study neuro/bio-informatics and develop technology to upload your mind on a computer and send it through a network to the artificial body your engineering buddies created.
| Bike or a electric bike if your super lazy
| No seriously, walk.
I'm exactly the same as you. I park at the edge and walk about 1.5 miles to class (my college is that big). Everybody either walks, cycles or rides a skateboard, but walking's better for you.
| also, buy sum dank weed lmao
| Cycle
| Shoes, buy shoes, it should be good
| Get a bike.
| > not studying in university where dorms connected to main building via skyway, allowing you to go to lectures in slippers with a cup of tea even at winter
| While I would suggest walking, I know you have your reasons, so if you really need it, I would buy a skateboard, or an electric skateboard
| What about public transport?

Innopolis University, Republic of Tatarstan. Basically rip-off from Carnegie Mellon (they even used to send students there for academic exchange until, well, you all know how we isolated ourselves).

There are always a trade-off. I was born in a shithole, but at least place I study at is cool and will probably get me nice job.

Getting a nice job is not the main goal of academic education. This is exactly the reason why studying currently sucks. It seems to me that public universities are degenerated to institutions that only should transfer back public money to some companies instead aiming scientific research to improve public accessible and usuable knowledge about nature. There should be a separate system to learn jobs.

Well it's basically the purpose of this university - companies invest money, fund studying, and in return students must apply to one of the companies after finishing study and work at least for one year. They are basically paying to prepare specialists. Obviously there are universities and institutes focused on scientific and whatnot research.
As for separate system - things we call colleges in Russia are usually focused around specific job - cook, barber, etc.

I did too, it does however fuck you over when you want to ascend from being a proletarian to being an academic.
| Back to original topic, though - just bought myself a board from craigslist-like site for $10. Looks like shit, but should be enough for me to learn skating until it'll snow. I hope to replace deck later (after snow stops next April lol), then wheels and stuff.
| >>399843
Yeah good call on replacing the parts. Your immense weight wearing them down is certainly good to know.
| Build mech legs

I know, and it was a really great thing. But it was, because due to the so called "Bologna reforms" these kind of education is sacrificed for the sake of international standardization, which unfortunately is oriented on the shitty angle-saxon system. Seriously, what is a "bachelor" good for? Most of the absolvents suck. Some "study" only 3 years and have no practise. Alot of them start their 1st job with debt in their pocket and only get insecure and low paid internship.
