    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I've been trying to score a pair of GEBs as well. Wisdom gear in general is a bitch to get as it seems like farmers have it on lock. My luck for fear gear has been non-existent as well. I'll probably just try to find a hole ghost group and spend a night there.

    You both could probably win in a dps race. Paladin DPS is complete shit. Drop the plat on him right when lord pops to distract him too.

    Anyone want to sell me some GEBS with an FnF discount? Or I'll trade a SSoY + cash or other shit for them :). Hook a brotha up!

    Talking about his money seems to be a thing with him. In that soundcloud I linked he kept talking shit about his 60k car and how he spent 30k to fix his teeth. A lot of his angry redguides posts mentioned him making multiple thousands per week too. Guy is a scumbag extraordinaire for sure.

    Web dev is another term like sys admin that could mean just about anything. Depending on the place it could be some scrub shitting out HTML and CSS with zero programming or a "full stack (lol)" developer writing multi tier scalable applications. Easy is also subjective too. I can write python...

    I start getting nastygrams if my timecard from the previous day is not filled by 9am each day.

    they sell them to other players for usually about half the price DBG charges. I may or may not buy them occasionally from the grey market because fuck paying 15 a month when I can pay $8 a month.

    I almost guarantee Agnarr full group exp will be the same rate as RF/LJ full group exp but solo/duo exp will be lower and that's why they don't want to say they're identical.

    Found the book object array declaration in the header, so ignore my previous post. I'd look at your catalog reserve function. It has a 'delete [] books' statement in it that may be messing with things.

    Dunno much about cpp.. but this syntax looks odd: books = new Book[theCapacity]; If you want to make an array of book objects, I think you want to do something like: Book* books = new Book[theCapacity]; or even Book books[theCapacity].

    Dealing with medical office and insurance fuckery.

    I've always had access to a web/phone app that shows if the provider is in network. Your insurer should have an appeal process. If this provider shows up on their website as in network then link it in your appeal and they should pay for it. I actually screen shot it before I visit now, just in...

    The struggle is real

    I'm really not trying to tear you down, I promise. It just seems like this info would be something you would mention originally. Even then, let's just say this was all truly just a shit streak of luck, the only thing you can really learn from all this is to be more prepared. Have a spare tire...

    The struggle is real

    You are correct but I also think that your post tilted more towards the advice side of things and Big P and Gunnar's posts tilted more towards insults than advice though. I know plenty of people (generally referred to as "haters") who like to use "advice" as a cover for insulting you because it...

    The struggle is real

    Yeah there's definitely some weird psychological thing with being to work late and being looked at as not-dependable. This seems to be magnified 1000x in the construction fields. I'm sure part of it is due to the fact that a lot of construction workers are complete derelicts. I did some framing...

    The struggle is real

    I'm pretty lax in when I come and go at all of my jobs, but I'm never late for the first day of work. I totally understand not wanting to be early every day, but c'mon the first day? I'm assuming you had no spare tire or an air pump? Probably worth investing in one / both. Just get a shitter...

    Breaking the Spirit of a Willful Child...

    Another thing I started doing is hugging my kid after he gets in trouble too. I think it really helped him to see that my love and affection is always there, and not just a treat for when he's good. I'm not a very affectionate person by nature so it took effort on my part, but after we talk and...

    Well, he got sent to the principals office because the teacher obviously was not able to deal with it. We of course could go down the rabbit hole of how well the teacher is doing, but let's just assume she put the normal amount of effort in to stop the disruption and when the kid would not...

    I'd say a lot of you either don't have hard headed kids or are giving yourself more credit as parents than you deserve. It also seems like title is mostly what rustled the jimmies and no one is really addressing the content of the actual post. The guy just wants his kid to tone it down when...

    Raspberry Pi

    I'm going to pi-hole my pi. I used to have it hooked up to my garage doors so that I could open/close them and view the state of them remotely. It was actually a rather involved project that took a couple of weekends to get working right. Pi's also make pretty cool security cameras. The...

    Sounds shitty man. I've always bailed before the contract runs up. Did they tell you how much time they have for you to work on the other project? If it's less than a year, start job hunting. If all else fails and you want to develop shitty .net web apps in NC I can hook it up.

    Honestly I think a lot of kids are going to be how they are going to be no matter how hard you try. Parenting sort of feels like a house of cards sometimes because kids will definitely learn from you but rarely will learn exactly what you think you are teaching. You might yell at them and hope...

    FYI, they're not going to ban people for using twitch stream, moonlight, RDP, gaming keyboards, KVMs, etc. Everything I posted in that boxing thread will never be bannable (aside from VMs which we always said was at your own risk) and if you read between the lines on their dev responses, they...

    Losing your Job

    If you can be responsible and work on a boat, you can do well. Most of the boat dudes I knew could only live in extremes. What I mean by that is that they could never work 40 hours a week, M-F and take home a few grand every two weeks and get by that way. The only way they know how to live is to...

    Depends on the business and locality. DC and the north east seem to be suit heavy. When I worked for an insurance company I wore khakis and tucked in collared shirts. Everywhere else has been jeans and t-shirts. My current unit is jeans and collared shirt, but no tuck in rule so pretty laid back.

    I honestly have never had a permanent station there, just been there temporarily. I was just trying to think of a place that felt stuffy (we always had to wear suits and shit when we went to the pentagon) so it very may well be awesome. I just hate wearing suits.

    Anyone considering defense contracting, the customer makes all the difference. If you land in some stuffy job at the pentagon, it's probably going to suck (if bureaucratic/political stuff is not your thing). If you land a spot working directly with a SOF, or on some specialty program, it'll...
