I wish I was better at networking like that.

How did he have such luck getting another job?

I never ask for them but I've never received any beyond the boilerplate "other candidates that better fit our needs." I will also note that the interview process now is more grueling than it's ever been. 4 rounds was the max I would expect in most cases for the past decade. Now for a mid/senior...

Of course this is just my opinion but the job market seems to be quite dire right now. Yes I had two FTE jobs and yes I quit one on purpose. But I casually apply to jobs and respond to recruiters if something sounds interesting. In the past 7 months of this I've gotten to final round and...

I switched Frieren to dubs for a bit so I could not fully pay attention to it. All of the VAs are fine in English except for Frieren. She's awful!

My father was big into the idea of "heritage guns" for some reason. I think it has to do with his father some. As my grandfather gave several exquisite, art piece quality, long rifles to my uncle at some point in the 80s. My uncle sold them later as he had zero interest in guns in general. This...

This looks cool.

8bitdo is plug and play on Mac and most linux distros. Don't be a Windows cuck anymore.

Never played the original.

You can get it working on Linux. The problem I was trying to solve is that I wanted to use the same controller on my various devices. Xbox controller tolerates one and only one pairing.

I like the cpu/power/heat thing on the right. The dedicated buttons for steam, youtube, battlenet, epic, and the terminal are totally unnecessary. Especially on a mac, CMD+SPACE and you can pull up any app in like 2 seconds. It does look cool though.

I'll say it again. The problems AI is going to produce is the hunt for the correct output without understanding basic design principles. Especially in regards to systems working together. Just like the guy I have on PIP is doing. The problems he creates are small though and not tech debt that...

I got one of these after using a Xbox controller for years. Third party controllers are legitimately better than first party now. What a world. I also have a PS5 controller. Xbox controllers not playing nice with Linux or Mac isn't good for me anymore...

Pretty sure its because the space originated from DBAs. We use tons of Flywheel to somewhat manage changes. Which I despise. Additionally even something as small as a change in column order could break stuff many layers down. This is healthcare as well and the OG database guys are...

In things that are in source control yes. The problem is that ancient Oracle DBs, MSSQL, and so on don't really have it. There isn't a legacy system really where you build out shit in SQL, store it in git and push to production and it then builds all of those things for you. If you did have that...

I have my one coworker on PIP right now. We recently integrated a data governance solution and despite its issues God damn if it isn't absolutely amazing at finding tech debt and janky bullshit made over the years. 90% of jank bullshit was made by this one guy lol. At least stuff that isn't...

I have literal years of single player backlog to get through. Which is why I am even considering this.

I had a sort of epiphany the other day. I have been tinkering with my SteamDeck a bit. I get a lot of use out of it because its just convenient to carry around and I can play in bed. I still prefer at my desk for any sessions more than an hour. This past week I'd been messing with the steam dock...

I don't have tons of "static" things on the desk outside of the keyboard, mouse. I like that I can use the other side of the L desk to do whatever. I don't have a workshop in the garage setup at the moment so I make do. I also hate clutter in general and already had too much of that anyway...

Danes are just a gayer version of the awesome Swedish Chef, King of Swedes.

I have a massive desk. I just like most of it to be free space. I have this model I think: https://www.upliftdesk.com/uplift-v2-l-shaped-special-order-solid-wood-standing-desk/?18860=2593&18861=14091&18863=17832&18862=2791&18864=5175&18917=11390&18912=11393&18914=11667

A full size keyboard is just a no can do for me anymore. I like my desk to have space on it.

I have a MMO mouse with the 12 key thumb panel and I do use that. I am not a heathen. Trust.

Everyone here is a poopsocker yes. But most people don't pick races to minmax. Poopsockers all do though. Wood Elf was one of the most popular races forever. Because they were cute. Similarly in WOW even assuming a faction balance how much of Horde were Blood Elves? How much of the Alliance was...

Going on 20 years as a professional programmer I have never once wished I had a numpad.

Hey now. I have used this guy for years: MX Master mouse is dope too.

I was never able to be a bootlicker. I know this has been detrimental in my career but I just can't make myself suck up to anyone. I'd rather be homeless. Fuck em. A lot more people succeed due to bootlicking than skill though. Just the way it is.

Yeah they're cunts then if they don't. I got a spot bonus of $10k a couple years ago just for doing a huge data migration project alone. As we moved from one ordering system to another. That whole effort cost at most $2M for the company. Of which I only did that small piece.

Nothing prevents you from making Linux stuff on the Mac. Its actually even easier than on Windows. You probably need a Windows machine for Microsoft native stuff though. I work in backend infrastructure and having a Windows machine has been nothing but a drag doing that kind of work. I hate them...

Their "AI" biometric monitoring and profiling of your sleep patterns or some retard shit.

Ogres are cool. When I finally played an Ogre Shaman during a TLP it was absolutely wild that getting hit by stuff had zero effect on your casting. I had played Dark Elf all through EQ. Presuming every single person plays min max to the core is kinda dumb anyway. Even if minmaxing is generally...

I purchased from APMEX as I didn't want to deal with vetting sources. It's cheaper to just up the quantity on their rounds/bars than actually buying their monster boxes. 🤔 Best I could figure just buy their APMEX stamped shit because they will buy that back at the best rate. Since they don't...

Got one of these after wanting one for a bit. Yes it is intentionally blank like this as I like the autism factor. I've used a Logitech MX keys mini for some years. https://hhkeyboard.us/hhkb/pro-hybrid-type-s/charcoal-blank

Once you go Mac you don't go back man. I fucking hate the WSL.

I've never bought bullion until October after reading @Synj simp for it. Bought the below between Mid-Oct and Thanksgiving. I admit is kind of cool having actual coins and bars. I gave one to each of my nieces and nephews for Xmas and they thought i twas the coolest thing. Way cooler than just...

So does it have classes or RPG elements or what?

I enjoyed the tests I've messed around on. I won't be sinking any time here until full release though.

Chained Soldier has excellent fight animation despite otherwise being fan service trash.
