    I don't really want or need a gigantic 10 up one though. 5.5 is the highest I'd get and this one is 10.

    You just put it in press a button and walk away. Real convenient. The Zojirushi ones can be timed and shit too so you can get more clever with it.

    @Koushirou Wok is 100% worthless if you don't have a proper burner for it that gives it more surface area to work with. Just saying. Unless you have one special or something to fit onto a normal gas range.

    @Lanx This one seems fine, I'd prefer the 3 cup one though but I'll live.

    Like you're looking at double the price of this for Made in Japan. Seems a bit nitpicky.

    Pretty sure the Panasonic one I had for 13 years was made in China. Worked fine too so as much as I don't want to buy shit from China, I am reluctant to spend $500 on a fuckin rice cooker.

    Asmon isn't awful but its mostly just to listen to his usual dumbass banter. He didn't do any of the previous events so its nothing new. He likely wont get as far as the previous network event guys did.

    Allow me to simp my new favorite data related tool. https://www.getdbt.com/ It really simplifies a ton of backend data work. What would have been multiple fairly complicated tasks in a more traditional database like MSSQL or Oracle (even the modern versions) is just some configuration file...

    I broke the glass lid of my 13 year old rice cooker today. It had a good run for being a $20 thing. I am going to bougie it up and get a Zojirushi this time though.

    It's going to be a minute before I play this. Either when I decide to hunt down a PS5 or it comes out on PC. So, whatever comes first. I'll enjoy some streams tho.

    Same, I want to actually be forced to try out lots of items and armors. Some of those starting classes have truly badass armor. This is Fashion Souls after all.

    Because he expects to be doing the report jocky management and not the other part. Why is this unclear?

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

    This was my manager at GM to a T. His usual tactic was to talk about whatever then when he recognized that you didn't actually know about the topic he'd turn on the bullshit engine. It was eventually amusing when I realized how often he did this. But it made me rage because he was also extremely...

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

    This manager needs to be the guy who is forcing the other teams into consolidated, uniform processes and data practices that his team is designing. Not the guy managing a bunch of report jockies just doing slightly more formal adhoc requests. The latter being what he expects to do for some reason.

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

    We almost hired a boomer manager this week. Nice enough guy but his ideas on how to do things (in terms of technology and what is possible) are just so... 20+ years ago and would be a total detriment to our goals.

    Went to Chicago this week and was surprised that we stumbled upon Andy's polish market. They sell this particular smoked cheese that is pretty common in it East Europe but I have never seen the real stuff in any European market in the USA before. It's called Oscypek and this places sells the...

    I measure BOTWness with the level of truly non-linear elements to the game. Other "open world" games are still linear adventures you just have to do specific things in order to get to the end of the game. In the meantime you can wander around map markers and be free to do busy work in the MMO...

    I think Botw is being used in these games where you have the insane mobility like the kite or the horse and the many many ways to interact with the game world. It's going to be like Botw in that way and most likely let you go right to the end of the game from the start of youre skilled enough...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    As has been said earlier this will be the most accessible Souls game. It is more like Breath of the Wild with Souls mechanics that it is the more claustrophobic style of the previous titles. Even Bloodborne. Sekiro would probably be the closest to this game in terms of mobility.
