I'm doing the erasmus program

Oh, that's a cool programme.

Yes, you can apply to any of them, as long as Northern Ireland is inside the EU at the moment of the application.

But maybe Vaihingen is a better shot.

Goethe Uni (Frankfurt) is good too but they put a lot more of effort on economy/laws/psychology rather than sciences/technology

But you can take a look and apply, they're very good, I attended many lectures there.

Mmmm do you know any professor?

Mostly students.

But I can ask if you want. I'm just terrible at recalling names.

Hello everyone i'm new feora and i want to intall broacom-wl in fedora 27, add the merge repositorios but i can find those packages

it would be great .. I would like to contact some professor who can help me to do the internship in security

@Wolfshappen welp! Do you know anything about Broadcom drivers? ?

Oh, I'm pretty sure they will know someone, give me a second, I'll send a message.

merge repositories? Only add rpmfusion.

You need to enable the rpm repos.. And also, you'll need kernel-devel and akmod-wl packages

If using a bcm43142 adapter

@Wolfshappen welp! Do you know anything about Broadcom drivers? ?

Yes, mostly that if you have to deal with broadcom the best course of action is ripping the broadcom crap out and replacing it with an ath9 atheros or a intel wifi card for 5-30 bucks

broadcom-wl pulls those in automatically.

It's a pain. ?

Thanks maan

Also, I had to configure the drivers will akmod every time I updated my kernel. Weird.

An internship in security without any prior experience or certification?

No way. ?

Get studying before, a long time. :P

So, I don't have any contacts apart from a bit of time in their IRC channel, but University of Twente in the Nederlands is meant to be quite good. I'm personally planning on going to the University of Amsterdam for a Master's in Networking & Security in September 2019

Hello everyone i'm new feora and i want to intall broacom-wl in fedora 27, add the merge repositorios but i can find those packages

If you Wireless adapter stops working after a kernel update, make sure you have the respective kernel-devel package install and do this https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?313562-Getting-Broadcom-BCM43142-802-11b-g-n-working-on-Fedora-25

I'm quite happy with the atheros on my new laptop tbh. It just works out of the box

@Wolfshappen I know you've got a good bit of experience, what do you think of my plan? Graduate bachelors from my current university, work a couple of years to earn some money, use their masters program to take a year off unpaid to do the masters of Networking and Security at the University of Amsterdam and then resume my job.

os3.nl is the program website

thank you I will look at your comments

Yes, mostly that if you have to deal with broadcom the best course of action is ripping the broadcom crap out and replacing it with an ath9 atheros or a intel wifi card for 5-30 bucks

And that's why I never had Broadcom

I'm in the market for a new one

thanks for the answer from some time ago I have installed rpmfunsion but the strange thing is that it does not locate me broadcom-wl kmod-wl

Thanks maan

Girl actually, but anyway. I just sent a message. I let you know if there are any replies.

Which laptop?

I have an Asus X555LB

I have an Asus X555LB

any real issues?

any real issues?

None so far. Although, the only downside that I found was that it has a NVidia 940M

Not really a beast.

I forgot to mention @The_h3rmann , that universities inside Baden-Württemberg (which includes Stuttgart/Vaihingen) impose a tax to non-residents of some 1200€ on top of the normal fees. This is paid only once but it's a lot of money, if you think that: 1) You can live on that money for a whole month in Stuttgart or somewhere around 2) The usual fees are something between 200€ and 350€

Have to play games on a lower res

I don't game so that won't be a problem. Thanks though

Wow. 1200€ is a tad too much..

It is

And it's not applied anywhere else in Germany

The other universities only ask for the semester

I don't game so that won't be a problem. Thanks though

Well then it's a really great laptop..

Also, if you're already a resident, this doesn't apply, it's only for non-residents, and it's a new law they voted last year.

Exactly at the moment I was going to apply

It's like they don't like non-residents... why?

Ah, weird monopoly games.

Exactly at the moment I was going to apply

Wait. Don't get me wrong but how old are you?

It's like they don't like non-residents... why?

No, I think they decided they wanted some more money. Maybe too many US Americans coming.

Wait. Don't get me wrong but how old are you?

39, almost 40. Why?

Oh, so they expect that non-residents are full of money... great mind ?

You can apply to a wide range of projects that will help you to sort the costs. Or you can apply to another German university. Or you can be a resident first, and then apply.

Girl actually, but anyway. I just sent a message. I let you know if there are any replies.

hahah :)

I know a good few people who went to university for computer science who have been working as a developer or sysadmin without a degree for ~20 years simply because they don't seem as good as the younger people who have them

39, almost 40. Why?

You said you were gonna apply for that college, I thought you were above 40 so got a tad confused. :P

Oh, so they expect that non-residents are full of money... great mind ?

I guess. I don't really know why they decided this. When I was in the office, the girl in the desk was red because she couldn't explain it herself and felt rather ashamed.

I just have to make contact with the prof, then check the availability of the prof and then check if the university can send me !!

You said you were gonna apply for that college, I thought you were above 40 so got a tad confused. :P

I was going to apply because I couldn't study in my original country. And this is a great university (and city) for someone who wants to work on scientific/technical areas. There are no age limits so I went ahead.

I still have the papers.

ERROR: S client not available

Someone I know has been a Java developer since Java was released but has just finished university so he has a degree and can get considered for lead developer and senior developer roles just because he didn't have a degree, despite over 30 years of experience

Oh, so they expect that non-residents are full of money... great mind ?

are you italian?

are you italian?

yes

I just have to make contact with the prof, then check the availability of the prof and then check if the university can send me !!

Oh, availability in IT isn't an issue. Very few people choose computer sciences

Oh, so they expect that non-residents are full of money... great mind ?

I forgot to mention, "non-residents" read it as "non-EU".

yes of course, I expected that

In that case, I've got 11 months left

An EU citizen or resident who is registered in the city is counted as German resident.

Oh, availability in IT isn't an issue. Very few people choose computer sciences

And of those that pull trough another 10% at most are usable as coders, designers, project leaders...

Oh no, I did not mean to say that you were not young enough for college, I was just a tad surprised because I have never really seen an actual adult think about college..

Heck in the EU work experience can be worth a hundred times more to a company than a paper saying you have gotten a number in something in IT.

You said you were gonna apply for that college, I thought you were above 40 so got a tad confused. :P

No, no, I'm not that old

yes

in witch university do you study?

StUdy

There's an U there

StUdy

ahah right...XD

*which*

in witch university do you study?

Polytechnic of Bari, interested?

in witch university do you study?

Also, which. Not witch :) Witch means a lady flying around on a broom doing funny magic

too fast

Oh no, I did not mean to say that you were not young enough for college, I was just a tad surprised because I have never really seen an actual adult think about college..

Well, I still do. But it looks like it will have to wait.

That's really great tbh.

Vice versa here in India. Although it's now changing. But at a very terribly terribly slow pace..

Polytechnic of Bari, interested?

not much. Do you have professors who are in charge of security? .Did you do the Erasmus?

Heck in the EU work experience can be worth a hundred times more to a company than a paper saying you have gotten a number in something in IT.

I noticed that they always ask for college degree but if you're already experienced they're happy to take you anyway. Probably because they don't have too many options. ?

not much. Do you have professors who are in charge of security? .Did you do the Erasmus?

yes and yes. Strong security both camera and networking

yes and yes. Strong security both camera and networking

where did you go?

Yeah, in many countries in LATAM is the same. You may have an impressive sheet of experience but, oh look, you didn't go/finish university. Okay, no. Not to mention, that if you're over a certain age they won't take no matter how goo you are.

where did you go?

oh, I didn't take the Erasmus, sorry

I noticed that they always ask for college degree but if you're already experienced they're happy to take you anyway. Probably because they don't have too many options. ?

Not only that but with work experience if you can show you have understanding of everything in need you're simply worth it.

Even if they had enough candidates which almost no company has you'll often have "idiot" "idiot" "well, they know what a keyboard is" kind of choices
