    I have an irrational hatred of gay ass archer type characters. So I didn't get past him choosing archer.

    Yeah I don't mind this Bonnie and Clyde thing they have going. Looks great.

    I read some of the first one. Did they have to make the MC a faggot who is into Centaurs? Like really?

    Reflecting back on it for the first 3 years it was easy to do. I was mid-level and had a lot of under the hood impact at both places but minimal visibility to anyone. For whatever twist of fate I designed billing and invoicing systems in two different companies in two completely different...

    Two Job TJT coming to an end. Feels like a massive weight off my back son. Although it was interesting in general. I hope I don't regret doing this. Mostly I'll miss the variety of development and different stuff I was doing.

    Job Hunting

    This is really rustling when we post jobs that say no H1B, no relocation, must be local. Pajeets just lie about that and bring it up only in the second interview to waste maximum time. We posted an entry level position and had 700 applicants.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Hmmmmm, instead of simplifying the game by removing unnecessary complexity, let us integrate third-party addons directly into the game to help manage it. How can you be this retarded?

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Small pan of water is objectively superior to firebrick/kiln brick unless it is very cold outside. Then use kiln brick and an insulating coat on the smoker.

    Realistically you do indeed want security focused engineers in the process. @TomServo having CICD with security gates is appealing to me. As this is the least disruptive way to do it. The problem I see here is that you need non-retards to do that part. The afterthought pen test retards can't do...

    In today's episode of Rapid Pajeetification my wife's direct manager (director level) decided to pull all production access from the team. Her team is the "core team" of FTE for the company that have developed the internal system this part of the org manages. In house software that runs their...

    That's our Cloud Operations people. Normally I could spin up just about anything in Azure I felt like trying out and remove it later. They locked all of that down last year so I have to go beg them to let me have an Azure Function App to mess with or any other feature on the platform. Its so...

    Ours is an actual one. Its especially retarded because we have an actual database reliability team. They work on shifts are are available 24/7. But that is their explicit function. They do not have a development workload on top of that. We even have to deal with that gay jira alert app. I am a...

    I've never truly kept track its probably around 50-60 average. When I am oncall its like 80. I've told leadership this already but their oncall alerts are complete trash. Most of them are more realistically warnings but they still demand you "validate" the warning and prove its not a bigger...

    Putting in my two weeks at the second gig this week. It's an interesting job but I really hate the work life balance. It has this odd mixture of people who are either young and unattached or older and have grown kids/empty nest syndrome. This causes leadership to expect a true grind out of...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    This game does a really good job at making the characters play completely differently. Most JRPG suffer from menu based combat just being lame and repetitive. Dodging, parrying, and interesting combat interactions and synergies with the various characters just really freshen it up. @Qhue What...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    JRPG plots were always batshit insane or incomprehensible. Even everyone's favorite FF3 is weird as shit but we can at least understand "yeah we gotta save the kingdom from evil."

    Marathon (Bungie)

    The aesthetic of this game looks like a clown puked. Then you put that in a blender and sprayed it all over the character models. Who thinks this looks good? It's just straight weird looking and totally unappealing.

    It's incredible. Excellent and ultra chill game. You have the school part but otherwise its fucked up Pokemon battling. Sorta.

    The last JRPG you played was from 2008? Seriously play Persona 5 (you don't need to play anything before it).

    Just started on this. This impressively done. The story is kinda weird but at least it's interesting and the characters are good. Combat is compelling and the soundtrack is great.

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    Its one mod but ok. Scaling was bad and a big complaint about the game. It was removed in Skyrim. Because there was little good feedback on it.

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    Scaling was always shit. Didn't mean the game was overall bad but that was one of its most glaring issues. Hence why 20 years later we immediately remove it with mods.

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    I got poisoned by a random bandit then I finally remembered that the old game never showed you that you had a poison effect on you. Also that poison effects can DRAIN STRENGTH and other annoying bullshit but you have to cure them with a cure disease potion (sometimes) rather than an antidote. It...

    I caught up on that and the author seems to be a woman. She borderline Mary Sue's the MC. The MC is all about honor and decency and whatever and despite finding other Prophets (with only one being insane) she immediately starts to abuse them and lie about it. Not to the story but lie to herself...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    100% Oblivion was derivative of Morrowind and Skyrim was Oblivion's retarded cousin. One of the best gaming moments I ever had as a kid was playing Morrowind. I found the Boots of Blinding Speed that blackscreened you like EverQuest OG Blind did (why did games stop doing this!?). I felt like...

    Back in the day Oblivion was lol because bandits scaled and eventually they were all just wearing daedric armor because lol.

    This realistically cannot survive American politics though. An incremental logical and easy touch is the easiest thing to derail. Hence why the strategy is to simply irreversibly change as much as possible otherwise the above happens.

    Y'all need to get this minmax shit out of here. It's almost 20 years old with a fresh coat of paint. Enjoy that your old age lets you play it as if it was new because you forgot everything. Yeah totally want to rush at warp speed to OP items so I can burn through this game as fast as possible...

    @sleevedraw This loaded up just fine on Fedora. I honestly have not touched this game since 2008 or earlier. Older game design that doesn't coddle you as much is truly refreshing god damn.

    @Phazael Speaking of Pajeetification. They are consuming basic administrative jobs now too. I had to talk to our procurement team today. Normally this is a team of 3-5 people for the entire company. Most being women. Whatever, that's fine. This is a truly basic admin job that you can...

    I don't see why leadership can't see the writing on the walls here. The productivity of the AI agent is quite clearly explicitly tied to the amount of total access you give it and the level of detail/context you provide it on your technical infrastructure. The demo MCP had to access 3 separate...

    He had an existing React APP. But it was still an app for this demo and it was clearly limited whatever it was. The whole premise resided on two things though. Ultra well written ticket with lots of very specific technical details. Figma wireframe was completed before work was requested (yeah...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    The series watering down its crafting systems as much as it did was always something that bothered me. Morrowind's level of crafting complexity was absolutely nuts. Oblivion was a shadow of it. Skyrim was a shadow of a shadow. Let us tinker with shit! Ignore it if you don't want to do that.
