Ahhh Ticket to Rage. My wife’s family is not allowed to play that anymore.

Moder was so painful. Queen and Yagluth were so much easier in comparison.

Working our way through the Ashlands now and well, what a frustrating area as well. Had to campfire like crazy a kilometer out just to be able to breathe for two seconds without being swarmed. We ended up going kamikaze to siege a fortress for a base and suddenly I can actually play for more than 5 seconds without being attacked.

A lot of Valheim bosses are only difficult because of the massive amounts of health. Without the crazy high amounts of health, none of them seem to have difficult mechanics.

Thanks. I’m a “read the silmarillion and didn’t fall asleep” huge Tolkien fan. I’ll check it out!

Did this game turn out great?

I was super excited for it and then some very early reviews made it sound like the equivalent of a shitty mobile game.

After reviewing the footage, Sedef realized that the bears always opted for the Anzer honey, proving they have very good taste. According to The Guardian, Anzer honey is “produced from the nectar of 90 flowers that grow only in the mountains of the Anzer plateau.”

This is pretty interesting. Considering Anzer plateau is in Turkey and this took place in Turkey, I wonder if the bear prefers the honey because it’s truly better or the taste is familiar to the bear, being in Turkey and all.

Looking forward to raging while I jump rope at 120fps!

You’re probably right on the grand scheme of things. However, I find recruiters are a dime a dozen. When job postings in my area that match my skill set are posted, I get 5-6 recruiters messaging me for the same job. So, at least for me, I wouldn’t worry about burning bridges with a single recruiter.

I’ve been on the hiring end of those conversations before, and frankly I prefer it when a candidate withdraws.

This, so much, this.

I’ve done many interviews on the hiring side. They’re exhausting. If you’re not interested in the job, please don’t interview. No repercussions will be had and any (introverted) ICs that were going to be pulled into the interview will breath a sigh of relief.

This was probably written and printed off by an employee as a joke… and it’s really funny.

Not in IT, but in software dev and I have some of the same issues dealing with support calls. I usually start off with “I’m sure you’ve tried some of this, so sorry in advance but can you… <insert super basic troubleshooting shit here>”. Seems to always get them to humor me and try doing things like restarting the computer and/or software.

Europa Universalis IV. Have tried several times to play this myself, I quit and watch someone else to get my fix instead.

Starcraft 2. I’ve accepted that I’ll never being good at this game so I’ll watch uthermal do challenges instead.

Factory games. Usually watch play throughs when I get stuck and/or get to a point where my designs can’t scale without a lot of headache.

Death Note was my first non-Toonami anime (dbz/voltron/etc). It’s the only anime I could get my wife to check out. Truly awesome. I was 20 when I first watched it and thought Light was awesome. Watching it now 16 years later and man does it hit different. I now view Light as a complete psychopath and actively root against him. Love that my view of the characters is a complete 180 from my early years.

Legend of Vox Machina is freaking incredible and is probably my most re-watched “anime”.

Hell yea to chat timestamps!

This makes me wonder… wtf was the balrog’s day to day like all those years? Was he really just hibernating? I mean, the maiar get bored. I can’t imagine being a shadow hellfire demon makes you suddenly never get bored.

I spent nearly 6-7 years developing control systems applications in LabVIEW. While I loved working in LabVIEW, I don’t wish LabVIEW was more popular, but I would love to see a graphical programming language take off. The dataflow paradigm is really interesting to work with.

You mean Emerson now! :P

I’m a CLA who spent 9 years developing LabVIEW applications for control systems. NI always annoyed me with their terrible decision-making and inability to catch up with modern times in the software world. (Their merge tool is so bad, it’s next to impossible to have a multi-developer project)

You’re welcome, but I’m no angel! His ADHD frustrates the absolute hell out of me. Trying to play with him results in a shift in activity every 5 minutes. It’s painful when I get invested in drawing Godzilla pictures only to have to go play pretend Minecraft 5 minutes in.

Reading these is a survival mechanism for me!

On a side note: I’ve realized I share sooooooo many symptoms with him. Currently in progress getting tested for adult ADHD.

I’m with you. My kid has adhd and I read these comics, not for the humor, but to get an idea of what’s going on in his head.

Did you ever happen to visit /r/samandtolki before it was banned? They really gave Boogie hell. They documented lie after lie from the dude. It’s sad how much of a pathological liar Boogie is. The worst one I witnessed was him saying people were swating him. Mod of samandtolki did a FOIA request to Boogie’s local police department and got camera footage from the officer that visited Boogie’s home. Boogie was making a lot of suicide claims and a fan called a wellness check on him. One officer showed up and asked Boogie’s roommate some questions. That was it.

Just wait until the 30s when you start feeling the hangover effects BEFORE you go to bed.
