    The Summer 2019 Anime Thread

    I read the Afurieta Light Novel last night. Our boy Hajima actually smashes the 13 (300) year old vampire. Over and over and over again! It kind of cracks me up how creative light novels get when it comes to talking about sex... By doing everything possible to not talk about it and frame it in...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    This is one of those songs. Everytime I listen to it it just makes me happy. To me it's like the Pharrell Williams Happy song. Except it was made 40 years prior and never got the recognition it deserves. One of the very finest examples of Disco that ever existed. The tricks with 80s videos...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I have a brokerage account where I can get that amount into my bank the same day. It's not really an issue to me in that way. I generally keep a fairly low amount of liquid cash available at any given time.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Yeah I don't have to deal with the money stuff so much. While she is very good at saving money, as this is a habit taught to everyone in East Europe, she often does not know what to do with it. So after we made a major purchase last year that I am now just investing all of her money with mine...

    What's your biggest loss in a game? (Data wipe, save corruption, impossible boss, etc)

    Qeynos always had the misfortune of being one of the first ones they created. As cool as having a whole ecosystem of corrupt and not corrupt guards is. Especially with the aqueducts being full of shadowknights and the brother of Atonious Bayle down there trying to deal with the Shadow Knights...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Allow me to request some advice today. I am beginning to run out of patience with my wife's inability to even talk about any kind of life decision that requires some discussion. Doesn't have to be anything totally major but anything that I feel should require mutual discussion before we make a...

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

    In all honestly he would be better off starting from scratch. But I know those project managers are telling him something like, "why can't you use all the code that TJT left from the last 4 releases to do this? He finished it all on time with that." Meanwhile they don't have a clue what they're...

    Beyond being unable to read documentation he doesn't understand how to reconfigure any of my code for new data or endpoints. He was supposedly a performance engineer for SAP which means he did absolutely nothing in my experience at GM. That and the protocol used to capture traffic on SAP is...

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

    Saw one of my old coworkers at GM down at the bar yesterday. He's in one of GM's other departments now as a Performance Manager (but didn't get boosted to the actual pay rate a manager gets). Which he is salty about. He also has a similar situation to you. He's had no environment to work on for...

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

    Yeah that is a stupid way to do it even if uptime is the concern. Suppose you get an alert caused by a facilities issue that requires you to contact facilities to repair the AC. What the fuck are you going to do about uptime then? You have to just remotely shutdown your shit to prevent days of...

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

    I'm by no means an infrastructure guy but the performance monitoring dashboard you're looking at there would be indicating the temperature inside the server or the ambient temperature in the room? Maybe I am nitpicking after being a perf engineer for so long (but for applications not...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Yes. Octavia's annoying shit with acid splash can't be removed. So you have to manually manage her shit. I had Linzi as a Thundercaller bard which is very strong. My melee were Val, Amiri (respecced Invulnerable Rager), Nok Nok and myself sometimes. Tristan/Linzi took up the rear.

    That shit is pathetic. Gets me salty as fuck when someone has to be an asshole like that to some people who are just trying to do their fucking jobs. Then he paid for it with a $100 bill and showed the manager that he had a relatively large amount of cash on him right there. Wallet was full of...

    That's easy. Your server guys may be competent at generally running servers but the problem you're talking about is a facilities management issue. Which if it isn't 100% your building you're talking about dealing with a kind of MSP for the space. Shitty all around. if you had a really clever...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    That is why the question is interesting though. If we apply modern methods to some of the ancient sites and megalithic architecture we sit here and scratch our heads. Some people assume that to accomplish it they must have had an ancient equivalent to the modern method to do it. But we don't...

    The usual American inventor strategy is to eat 90% of something and claim this or that was wrong with it to fish for discounts and what have you. Eating all of it and then simply saying, "lol I'm not paying for this you false advertising assholes." Is just absurd. White collar dine and dash?

    I am so glad I don't have to deal with any of that house shit. Mine grew up in Eastern Europe and the style of living there is just dramatically different.
