I thought teams sucked as a user experience… my last job, well my last job I was IT. If it involved a computer I was involved.
Anyways, administrating teams is a fucking god awful nightmare, honestly a lot of Microsoft’s eco system is awful as a sysadmin. But teams and sharepoint take the cake for being fucked.
Agreed.
I have met good people who are Christian. They usually don’t cowl all their behavior behind god.
There you’re friends dad, who barely knows you, who helps you get your car running so his kid and friends can make it to a metal show. He didn’t like metal, but he kept it to himself other than saying it wasn’t his genre, which is a fair statement.
Why did he devote an afternoon and a couple trips to auto zone? Because all in all we were good kids. He wanted us to have fun, but to arrive (and ultimately) come home safe.
Unless things change drastically for their RPG division, I’ll repeat what I’ve said since oblivion. Bethesda makes great modding platforms, the content within the game is a loose theme that modders can play with.
Yes the new Fallouts are just TES in the Apocalypse.
Yes starfield is little more than TES in space.
I buy Bethesda games for mod potential.
If they said no mods to all future games I wouldn’t buy another one. I don’t play ESO and I have never touched fallout 76 for this reason.
PC, I couldn’t get it past 800x600 resolution.
Now is it possible that was an option? Sure, I couldn’t see much the way it tried to render on a 4k monitor.
The point is, I couldn’t access their remake on modern (for the time) hardware.
One of the few returns I’ve made on steam.
The Adams family game for the NES.
I never could get past the freezer section, but I never got to try much. It was my cousins’ game and they lived in a different state.
Just the Bible, since it was at a church.
Condones rape and slavery among other glaring issues with it.
Don’t forget a lot of the cost of a pack of smokes is often more due to taxation than the cost of the product, even if you include things likes all the overhead for marketing and legal and shit.
On Amalur, I made a character and quit when I couldn’t play in a modern resolution
I played the original and enjoyed it well enough though.
As a person who sleeps through alarms and is approaching middle age…
It is a problem.
I wish I had some advice, but I am accepting advice lol.
My first thought was Grand Prismatic, just after dawn.
Cool enough that the thermal features create a fog over the water, and more importantly, all the tourists (I was a hotel employee in the park) were still in bed. Had the boardwalk area all to myself.
I think I just sat in contemplation for half an hour, which if you knew me would say is impossible. Very peaceful.
Do you have any sources on that?
I’m not trying to call you out, I’m interested in reading more.
I found a script for bypassing captive portals on Linux back in the day…
The full functionality of how it works escapes me at the moment, but essentially it searches the network for a host that possibly already connected through the captive portal and spoofs their MAC address.
This isn’t the one I originally found, but its the same principal and a Kali tool, so it may be considered more secure than the original bash script I copied back in the day:
The only thing that comes to mind would probably be the latest iteration of the Starsiege: Tribes series. Or I mean, the OG Tribes was great, and still one of my most fondly remembered shooters. Probably still some servers somewhere…
If only there were a place where we could house dangerous, mentally unstable people from the populous.
Of course, for me to have any thought on imprisoning people, I must first recognize the multitude of judicial and correctional atrocities that happen seemingly daily all over the country.
Proprietary formats are certainly an issue outside of Canada.
Most of the reason corporations/governments stick with popular proprietary formats is actually money.
Developing/investigating an open format is expensive. and then there is the problem of people who have only lived in a digital walled garden.
If you have to train all of your new employees on how to use it the cost rises exponentially.
Then you have your IT support folks who probably just got it dumped in their lap at the last second, and have no knowledge of it themselves, because training wasn’t an option due to time or money.
As a person who handled (solo help desk for that shift) the change over of a health networks electronic medical records systems, I receive no training and was told that they had consultants on hand to transfer them to - yeah well in 4 hours over 2000 calls came in. And of course I got yelled at by a dick hole boss (if your adult children won’t speak to you, and you’ve never met your grandchildren, you are the problem) about people who didn’t want to wait in line for one person to answer the phone and dropped the call.
That boss was ultimately the reason I left that company in favor of a previous employer who offered a lot less problems. Stayed there until the pandemic (hospitality IT) and its been a shit show ever since.
I went from hourly call center to on call 24/7 and being the only point of contact.
When my phone notifies me, just any notification, I panic. The phone rings, I panic. Its been over a year since I left.
Yes, its part and parcel to other issues of mental health, but… Man, do you know how often you get notifications? I’ve turned most off and still some days I’m ready to smash my phone so it will shut up and I can breathe normally.
Worked in a shady little PC repair shop.
If the owner was in one of the stores, he would “personally oversee” shall we say data retention? If the customer was a young (legal, as in not CP, but creepy age difference) woman.
Yeah, he backed up their data and looked for nudes. I was too young to know how to handle it, so when he said he couldn’t pay me (even after it was due) I told him to fuck off.
I hope he fucked one of the day time strippers he spent most of his “office time” (the office being a strip club) with and wound up with an incurable STD.
I hope his wife found out. I hope she took him for everything.
Thank you for differentiating.
The original “skin head” movement was mostly factory workers in Britain who cut their hair short (not necessarily shaved bald) for safety around equipment, and some of the most popular music among the group was stuff by “rude boys” Jamaican primarily I believe.
It was working class solidarity with no intentions of racism.
The neo Nazi groups coopted the term, and delved into punk music to find disenfranchised people who would buy into their rhetoric.
There are also other skin head groups that exist today - SHARP for example, standing for SkinHeads Against Racial Prejudice.
Espouse hateful rhetoric around these guys and you’re liable to wind up on the wrong side of a brick to the head.
Why do I know all this? I have a penchant for research, and in the past few years I’ve been shaving my head because I decided to own my thinning hairline instead of have some ridiculous comb over type shit and hide it.
I have had an encounter with a racist white dude at a 711, and he’s ranting at the cashier and looks to me and said “Right brother?!”. No, it was absurdly horrible (misguided) and I threatened to call the cops if he didn’t leave the store and hopefully the neighborhood. He left when he realized he didn’t have any support.
I was witness to what burnt piss does on a hot muffler.
It stinks, for miles. And months.
I have to call out Mirror’s Edge, it is a great experience if you have the right mindset.
Trying to play it with an FPS philosophy is not the way.
