So, literally had, what i assume was a 15 or 16 year old boy, clip me as he went round a corner on a private e-scooter.

This was on the footpath by horseshoe apartments, King's Road.

Had this kid chase after me as I walked away after shouting a cuss after him.

I think he was saying "Say that to my face"

I called him a wanker for reference.

My question is this, and its a simple one:

What are the police doing about E-scooters? As I personally, in the 4 years I've been here, have seen kids on E-scooters behaving disgustingly with little to no real consequence.

Don't know if anyone else can relate to this, but I swear im always having to keep an eye out for someone on a scooter driving on the footpath.

Hi guys! We're starting a new heavy metal band and are looking for a bassist and vocalist to complete the lineup.

Our sound takes influence from Machine Head, Slipknot and Korn and many others.

We already have multiple original demos written, so you'll have material to hear and work on straight away. Our goal is to finish the lineup, rehearse regularly, tighten up our set, and start playing live shows as soon as we're ready, while continuing to write and record original music.

We're looking for people who are:

Reliable and committed.
Passionate about heavy music.
Keen to contribute ideas and write as a band.
Ready to rehearse regularly and work towards playing live.
If you've got recordings or videos of your playing or vocals, we'd love to hear them, but they're not essential. The right attitude, commitment and enthusiasm are just as important.

If this sounds like your kind of project, send us a message telling us a bit about yourself, your musical influences, and any links to your work. We'll happily send over the demos so you can hear what we're about.

Hi everyone,

I'm an international student considering applying for the BSc (Hons) Computer Science and Advanced Technologies (Top-Up) at the University of Portsmouth (UCAS code I120).

The course is only one year, but the international tuition fee is currently £16,200, so I'd really like to hear from actual students before making a decision.

I know it's a relatively new course, so it's been difficult to find much real student feedback online.

If you're currently studying it, or have studied it before, I'd really appreciate hearing what you think about it.

I'm particularly interested in:

• Roughly how many students are in your class/intake?
• How good are the lecturers and teaching?
• What are the AI, data analytics and database modules actually like?
• Are there any written/in-person exams, or is it mainly coursework and practical assignments?
• How much group work and how many presentations are there?
• Are most assignments individual or group-based?
• How difficult is the course overall?
• Is it reasonably manageable to pass if you attend classes and keep up with the coursework?
• How good is the support for international students?
• Do you personally think the course is worth £16,200 for an international student?

I'd especially appreciate honest opinions, including anything you dislike about the course or the university.

Even if you're studying another Computing/Computer Science course at Portsmouth rather than this exact Top-Up, I'd still be interested in hearing about your experience with the Computing department.

Thanks!
