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

    RDO, but that could only be with offsite/locations (ctr location). May depend on where the office would be at physically. Seen RDO 4/10s, and 9's with a short day/off day alternating weeks generally restrictive to mondays or fridays. My assumption is physical work being at the contract site not...

    Must Have Software

    I have used DDresecue before, linux based and has worked pretty good. Just burn to disc and reboot the puter. He has some options to how you want to copy the drive to another drive. It has worked for me as long as it can still see the drive. Never tried the mac/windows versions. GNU ddrescue Manual

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

    Very nice. Ya, if you dont have to go into that re-complete world with the contract house the better. Its a pain when having to switch and getting medical and all that crap going again because good chance one company wont have the same medical as the other. Company location is better than...

    Invention thread

    Told a co-worker there is a market to have someone sit at your house to wait for X repair/cable guy to showup and let them in, watch them and lockup when the finish. That sparked an hr long talk about private eye licenses might be needed and some other crap, this the dude was drooling over it...

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

    Congrats. I tend to accept if its bit over what I wanted, closer to work than current correct? Also, did they say how long your position will be contracted for? Assuming you might be part of X team under gov contract. Not sure how they handle their ppl when contract ends/canceled. Many just...

    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    Isnt Ready Player One something like a coming up reboot of Last Starfighter? I know the writer for it has some major hard-on to let it sit and rot. Spielberg was trying to get rights or licensing not too long ago...

    Want better sun visor for the vehicle. I have yet to sit in a vehicle that has 2 per front seat (front/side). There is that corner spot time of day where you flip the visor back and forth trying to block the sun. Wish there were 2, front and side. Side problem, generally it isnt long enough...

    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    Agree on Krull Reboot again but keep the campiness. Hell it could be role reversal I wouldn't care. Actually that might put it more in the old school realm it was meant to be as over the top campy. Kudos if you know this one. :)

    The D&D thread

    Advent of everyone having phones now, this has eliminated the sticky parade. The sheer about of stickies some ppl pass to the DM would become silly to the point we forced ppl to sit by the DM. Got so bad, DM would roll before taking the sticky. This was a must due to too many ppl over the years...

    Older but can be fun. Planet of the Apes movie series. I havent see the new reboots so unsure. What I remember, Planet of the Apes and Escape from the Planet of the Apes were time travel related. Rest was just Heston screwing around.

    I enjoyed sX. They explained more on Rimmer's family, Lister having problems with his father/son. I lost it on the guitar thing. Older ones are great, just happy to see more coming.

    Apple/Mac Thread

    Ya I hate going in, only when I have too. Of which has been limited, thankfully. Staff is friendly, I hate all the zombies in the store, its chaos. The stores might have had that cool edge at some point but now just a pin striped suit in a forgone era. Could be just the sheer amount of ppl in...

    Ya, I prefer the OSx also. Wish they would stop dropping the ball. I wasnt impressed the last time i had to hit the iWait store. Had to bring in the macbook pro, last of the 17" series due to video problems. It was the poor solder thing, it wasnt showing the config/debug for the tech. They were...

    could also add a little True Detective, X-files and Monster Squad. :) I took the Phoenix thing as El and her increasing power. Its close enough I figured and matches with the disappearance thing. Thinking over the upside down, seems it has always been there with creature(s). Touching it made...

    Given the rate Apple has been shitting on their computer line. i wont be shocked if they exit the market of them in 10 years and replaced with desktop docking stations for the IOS device to mimic a desktop. They are about there now hardware wise. My understanding the Air, IMac and Mini are...

    so home rules, we have a count down on fights. Once the player resolves their fight they must count out loud at normal speed, "1 thousand 1", "1 thousand 2", " point 6". If noone throws down anything on them before they finish their count, their turn ends. This works well if ya winning and you...

    Sonarr with defaults still work (Nyaa, Rarbg), Bit Che for what is missing later with Transmission. Rarely needed but havent been watching as close. Couch Potato never really worked that great, seems to need to be restarted too much to give it a kick.
