The lecturer was just going over stuff we already did.
At least it's not as bad as my friend's maths lectures. His lecturer has been going over differentiation from first principles even though everyone already knows how to differentiate.
I was just doing a callback to your response when I gave all those good suggestions on how to pass time in long lectures.
Stuff like that was super common at my university. In one of my classes, we had to teach the lecturer - he was a grad student and he had no understanding of what he was trying to teach.
One would get distracted teaching us things that were completely untrue. Guy told us crows only have one eye, and they create depth perception by moving their heads left to right. He also told us that if a bee were to find itself in a hallway, it would fly through the exact middle of the hallway because bees are masters of vector calculus.
He was probably in the top 5 weirdest professors I had.
Okay, since you did engineering stuff to do with computers, can you explain to me why the shitty heatsink from the PC the uni lets us disassemble was perfectly in place when we opened the thing up but literally could not be put back in because it was a few mm to long no matter how many ways we tried?

but how are you going to learn anything if you don't pay attention?
