I have never heard anyone call computer science “datafag”, it’s usually called “informatikk” (like “informatics” which you can also say in English), and “slutt” just means end or stop, I have never heard anyone use it to refer to graduating.
“Fag” does mean “subject” or “field of study”, though, so computer science is a “fag”, and it might be considered a “realfag” along with the natural sciences, I don’t know.
My dad did ‘datafag’ some 50 years ago, at least I think they called it that. It was the era of ‘hullkort’ (punchcards).
Also I think it should be sluttdatafag all in one word. I seem to remember some old folks referring to graduate degrees as sluttfag. I dont think anyone has ever put ‘data’ in the middle there though. Sounds like AI hallucination.
With regards to “sluttfag”, I couldn’t find anything real, but Google’s AI summary says “Et sluttfag er et fag på videregående skole som blir avsluttet med en standpunktkarakter det gjeldende skoleåret” - so it’s the final year of a subject that gives you a grade on your high-school diploma… according to a language model :l

Ah, cognate to the German „Fach“ and the English “fact”. That makes sense.

You are right, in fact it’s still possible to study datafag, I stand corrected: https://uit.no/utdanning/program/795103/informatikk_datafag_-_bachelor

Keep in mind this is Google translate
What newfags and oldfags? Can one triforce while the other cannot?
Shit… now I want to know what triforcing is
It doesn’t matter. You wouldn’t be able to do it anyway.
Q: What did Princess Zelda suggest to Link after her third night without orgasm?
I don’t know. What?
“Please go gently.”
Found the Newfag!
I’m actually straight, but that just sounds awesome
