You can recommend what you like. As soon as Windows 10 can’t play the latest games I’m off to Linux.

Eat my whole ass, Microsoft.

On top of all this, what really irritates me about epic is they talk like they give a fuck about consumers, but never act like it.

Elon Musk enjoys Elon Musk’s name so much that Elon Musk has no pronouns. You may only refer to Elon Musk as Elon Musk.

Yeah, the infatuation with Rei and Asuka always sat wrong with me. It's a good show with some uncomfortable 'fan-service'.

“Most clicked on games of 2023”

Fixed

Under the circumstances, I agree.

So obviously controlled by bots, what’s the point of it anymore?

My SO and I have been together for around 15 years. We’ve had our ups and downs, like everyone else, but I think we’re in a really strong place for the last year or so. I’ve had to face up to my imperfections and work to change them. But some of our problems were caused by my now diagnosed ADHD. (Medium severity inattentive type)

And she just rolled with it, she has accommodated my newly discovered needs like it’s nothing. She is compassionate and understanding of my preference to write down timelines so I can see the whole picture. She is happy to take housework off my plate that I’m simply not built to do well.

Holy fuck I love this woman.

You’re not going to get better unless you practice!

(Maybe note in the report that you are unsure how to write a good report and are available to help clarify)

Cus it’s so toxic and reactive.

You stay behind the line when the light is red to leave them space, then you pull forward into the junction when you have right of way.

Hello, I have 80 hours on Skyrim recorded in Steam.

I do not like Skyrim.

I jumped ship to PopOS a few months back.

There are some issues, like Bluetooth not starting without some terminal commands, I think I have to wipe or otherwise mess around with my 1TB NTFS storage drive to mount it and stuff like that.

But all the games I've tried to play work fine.

It’s only $99/ year!

Though you can only read it on registered devices.

This is the same guy that didn’t understand the crazy obvious nazi party references in The Wall.

It is honestly mind blowing to me that this guy has any following after that.

Solving the problem forever!

With all the love in the world, from one engineer to another;

Fix the docs!

I went looking for an explanation of what RetroDECK is, found this: https://retrodeck.readthedocs.io/en/latest/wiki_about/what-is-retrodeck/

And I kind of know how it works, but not what it does. (At least without clicking through to the ES-DE page)

Give people an elevator pitch as to why they want to download and use this software.

“RetroDECK brings the powerful emulation capabilities of ES-DE to the SteamDeck in one easy to install, easy to use package. Play your , and many more from your couch or on your TV with any controller you like!”

Something something ChatGPT can sex that up a little.

I’ll bet people said the same thing when Intellisense started suggesting lines completions.

And when errors were highlighted in the code rather than console output.

And when high-level languages started appearing.

With Joe stepping down and a surge of support for Kamala, is there a point where the Supreme Court has to accept they’re not winning this time and switch to clean house of people who overplayed their hand?

I had this game down to 2 continues as a kid.

The boss with the wolverine claws and the orange-haired boss would be the places.

So good! And the GCon was a beast.

However, I will share my worst interview experience.

It was for a company that was working on an app to move stock from one car dealership to another. Dealers would sell cars to each other, essentially.

I show up 15 mins early, as is tradition. I check in and wait until the scheduled time. Then 5 mins past, then 10 mins past. At this point I've written off this company and call my partner asking if I should just bail out or not. She says even bad interviews are good practice and I should stay the course even if I think this one is a lost cause.

Her wisdom is sound, so I stick around. About 15 mins after the agreed time I am finally asked to meet with the manager. He guides me through what is to this day, the drabbest, driest office I have ever been in. The only colour in the place is a bunting of world flags around the tops of the walls. I get to meet 2 lovely people who both seemed very capable and competent. We have a great time going through some team-fit and technical questions. Then I get to the code challenge. I am provided with a laptop and it is fucking GROSS. Like imagine a keyboard you haven't cleaned in 5 years kind of gross. The ask was pretty straight forward, download images and display them in a list, the classic 'keep-shit-off-the-main-thread' challenge. I'm working away while the EM is paying me no mind whatsoever. He is working away on his computer while I'm doing this. About halfway through I tell him; "I don't think I'll have enough time to complete the project". I'm trying to display a proactive mindset and I expected we'd then talk about paring the project down to an MVP. All classic interview gotchas. His response though was: "Deal with it." I knew I wasn't taking any offer they made me when they left me 15 mins late, but God fucking damn did I not expect that level of disrespect. Anyhow, I hauled ass out of there and called up the recruiter who organised it and told him straight up I would rather be unemployed than take a position there, with details as to why. Hoping to save any unfortunate candidate a similar experience.

I still feel bad for the 2 engineers I spoke to, they seemed really cool and undeserving of working under a stone-cold prick of a manager.

It’s actually a good ad, though I question the setting for a young woman. She is so immersed by the display, the room she is in has faded away and become whatever game she is playing. That’s why there is no computer desk.

Hashmaps are just arrays with notions. Sets are just hashmaps with doormen.

Yeah, I’m guilty of this tbh. It’s just the massive unknown of leaving something you’ve been so close to for literally the majority of my life.

It’s scary!
