gollark: Yes, piracy is the way forward.
gollark: I probably want to do physics/engineering or something like that.
gollark: There are many vaguely interesting fields, but I have no idea if there's any one thing I care about enough to specialise in for several years.
gollark: Yes, I worry about that too.
gollark: I got bored and started looking at university league tables and course lists and stuff recently.
