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

    Driving in bad weather is a good reason to work from home, particularly because it's out of your control. Shoveling is insulting because you're going to have to do it eventually. We have the typical flexibilities regarding work hours and such. He could have shoveled his driveway, showed up at...

    My current work won't allow wfh except for circumstances out of your control. This sounds egregious but I just finished telling one of my employees that working from home because you didn't feel like shoveling your driveway is a fucking weak excuse. So, I'm kinda torn on working from home...

    Any place where I can read some mass reviews of Schiit products? Having trouble finding them on Amazon. I like using that as a sort of weeding out products that may only show their downside with 1/10 people.

    That's my understanding as well. The FIIO E10 is a amp/dac, so I don't think I'm underpowering my DT880 currently, just maybe the dac part is shitty. Or who knows. I plan to test this some more tonight. Both headphones hooked up to the E10 and computer directly, see what they sound like as I...

    Does not need to be portable at all. I thought an amp would be required for all but the lower resistance headphones. I use a separate mic too, I don't want to compromise headphone quality just to attach a microphone.

    What's the current recommendation for a midrange headphone amp/dac? I have a FIIO E10 and I'm suspicious that it's the cause of ripping explosion sounds through two pairs of headphones(Sennheiser HD595 and Beyerdynamic DT880). I've upgraded my computer at least once during that time. I was...

    Does anyone else get a ripping/distorted sound from the fire attack of Wild Strike? My old Sennheisers had random distortion issues related to typical explosion sounds, I've bought new headphones since(Beyerdynamic DT880), and essentially replaced my computer over the years. I kinda got used...

    What if all leagues cost $30 and all MTX were 50% less? I do agree that they have a building problem with their stash MTX. Map tab, currency tab, fragment tab, essence tab, div card tab, premium tabs. That's a lot of optional yet very functional MTX. Some of the older ones should be folded...

    Serious talk time here, boys: cosmetic MTX. I downed another $100 on those mystery boxes after having already spent $30. Made out with a bit more MTX that I will actually use than the total box cost, including dupes. Having much less buyer's remorse than I expected, despite what this post...

    They should convert the league to mayhem + bestiary, undo the hotfix, let everyone go hogwild, real bestiary league in a month. Actually, why don't the use league-ending races like mayhem and turmoil to test the next league? Shit like this would have been found out.

    I'll take a free Sinnocence set as compensation, thank you. Breakneck development speed has finally caught up with them, hopefully some painful lessons are being learnt.

    KB is pretty hard on mana early on. Mana pots and more leech is really the only way. Or luck into a Thief's Torment. They don't cost that much actually, if you want to buy one. On top of that, I think KB/Barrage suffers from the duality problem that most AoE/Single Targets setups do. You're...

    I don't hate the shoes. I'd never wear shoes like those, but they seem to fit your character. But the car really doesn't match them.

    Of your car? Meh. I drive a 2003 Hyunda Accent and my wife has a 2016 RAV4. If a gave a shit about what I drove, I could have bought something better for myself by now. It might actually be cheaper, once you factor in insurance. Hopefully, you didn't mean I was jealous of those clown shoes.

    Completely unrelated, I usually don't spend much on mystery boxes, ~$30 on every new one since they're good value for the first ones. But damn, does that combined gold and black set look good. This is the first game I've spent money on MTX, but I am worried if every mystery box is going to be...

    They've boosted the chance for adjacent uncompleted maps to drop, so you might want to try again completing it yourself. Buying maps sucks.

    Slightly sarcastic, but 20% raise and 150% bonus doesn't sound like stagnation. I'll take boredom if I could get that every (few?) years.

    Has anyone found a way to safely "abuse" Champion's Adrenaline? I was considering doing a Slayer/Ascendant with wild strike and Oni-Goroshi. I usually think slayer leech is required for any boss killing melee build, but maybe not if your ascendancy has some built in defences like Champion.
