    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Nightreign is a poopsocker's game. Don't get me wrong, it is fine for what it is, but its basically a coop looper game with an Eldern Ring skinsuit for the next level autists. As an old man who likes the relaxing methodical fighting of most Souls games, its not my jam. Plus I am a console...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I have kept warning my superiors about this (big push toward Claude here and no one seems to be taking costs into their calculus atm) and keep getting hand waved. Our mostly non-technical leadership seems to think this is a magic wand that will cut staff costs and solve everything, even though...

    The Boys

    Source material was ok for its time. Its just that the woke psyop went public shortly after its run, so its kind of in this half assed middle space and Rogan and Garth tried to turn it into Orange Man Bad the series, kind of like they sort of did with Preacher. And to make matters worse, they...

    Poll Should Mario Speedwagon be Permanently Banned from the Politics Forum?

    You are the gayest Rickshaw Jockey ever. And a reminder that list included esteemed faggotry from the likes of Tyen, Manessa, Ossoi, Fanaskin, Chris, and Keg.

    Poll Should Mario Speedwagon be Permanently Banned from the Politics Forum?

    Are you a woman or something? Get your shit together. I thought the Juggalos were all required to have functioning testicles.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    For the travel router, yeah I had to check constantly. People were scalping them for like 4-5x the retail cost, too. As for their home security stuff, they had a whole separate platform of camera, door, and motion detector products and the routers used to come preloaded with the software...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Beat me to the punch here, but yeah. I have a specific VLAN for our printing lab that we share with our friend who uses it with us (and has most of his set up at) so he can send and monitor jobs. We also have home brew apps for some of my homebrew board and TTRPG games running on our NAS that...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Yeah I was doing tech support for the German club and two other paying clients. Remote admin was incredibly useful, if you get everything set right. I am personally using a UDM Pro that I upgraded to when I moved to my new house, along with a bunch of managed switches and a dedicated gateway...

    Dating

    All women are essentially like orangutangs in the sense that they never let go of the prior branch before securing a hold on the new one entirely, though it varies by both demographic and individual. The need to have an invisible 50 mile umbilical cord with their mothers is one of the main way...

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    When I ponder this situation, I think of the movie Margin Call. Its a great movie, which I highly recommend. In it, one of the core threads is that the company in question deliberately begins the 2008 crash in order to be the first one to sell off its shit positions to ensure the survival of...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I have no idea why, but bitches go crazy for Olive Garden for some reason. It crosses all racial and social boundaries. Italian food in general tends to make women excited but there is definitely a specific Olive Garden fetish. It is literally the only place I can open the bid with when my...

    Friends

    Cad and Khane have the most critical reasons, but to summarize it takes effort to make real friends once your out of the education bubble and not forced to interact with a bunch of people you might otherwise avoid interacting with. Most people have co-workers and maybe a hobby community as...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    In my personal experience, most companies will opt to limp along band-aiding existing systems rather than invest in something newer. They only move up the updated path if forced or if the newer option has rather immediate ROI (usually through reducing workforce or physical asset infrastructure...

    The Boys

    First of all, you are describing narcissism. Second I am pretty sure if they made the president a secret foreign agent with a tranny "wife" the same people hand waving this shit would be reeeeeing their asses off. The real sin for me is that its eye rolling and just not funny or entertaining...
