Has anyone set one of these up? A friend of mine just found one in a box during their move, and asked if this project was still active.
- Comment on What Are Ya'll Playing? 1 week ago:
Playing through Golden Sun again after picking it up and dropping it an hour in for the last few years. I remember getting into the Djinn/class system a lot when I played it growing up, and its still a pretty unique system. Im kinda regretting not playing the QoL/reworked ROM hack, but thats for another play through in a few years

I came across 2 of them at an ITAD I was working at a few years ago. A few of us were in a bidding war between ourselves until it got listed on eBay and sold for a lot more than any of us wanted to put down (and way more than we were making, fuck that job)

Going through a DC consolidation project now and the line techs are fucking clean. I’m slightly excited to overnight patch so I can make this place look good.

If you can get them to pitch in for a drive for your birthday its worth it. If not, hopefully they watch it before the array starts filling up

Yes this is the world. It fucked and we hope to change it. Even thought you were stoned it makes sense. Feel and house people
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 5 weeks ago:
I messed around with pills pretty bad back in 2012 and ended up with seratonin syndrome one night. Good things have happened since but nothing ever felt normal since then. Ive never talked to a doctor or psychologist about it (really anyone now that I think about it) but I swear my brain never recovered fully. Mix that in with some concussions a few years before from HS football and I feel like my brain is just broken. It might just been depression, but stuff seemed so much brighter before.
Sorry for my own rambling, but I wish you well and understand where you are coming from.

I still remember listening to Blackstar when I heard he passed. There was something so weird and ethereal about that moment I tend to agree thats when things went from bad to shit.

Thanks! Finishing up the work day but will take a closer look soon

Could I use this to set a monthly job that runs and updates my local copy? Does it download/update changes made since my last sync or would it just redownload and replace the previous months in this situation?
- Comment on Computer Science, a popular college major, has one of the highest unemployment rates 1 month ago:
Kinda glad I took the community college IT/infra route when I went back to school a little bit ago, but still scared for the future lol.
- Comment on Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10 1 month ago:
Businesses are locked in and the people making the decisions aren’t IT people. I did the Win11 conversion at my last job and have been working on it at my current position. It might just be my social bubble, but the only people worried about Win10 is corpo.
- Comment on Nier creator Yoko Taro reveals the sad reality of modern AAA game development, “there’s less weird people making games” 3 months ago:
I’ve mainly been an Indie gamer since 2012 or so. My last gaming build is almost 7 years old, but I think the last AAA game I played was during lockdown and that was just because it was a way to hang with friends. At this point I just play indie ports on my phone.
Funny enough, after going through my Steam recently played, the last AAA game I enjoyed was Nier.

It really does lol. I wasn’t too concerned about this project and have been focusing on the next phase plus a few other projects in the pipeline, but knowing this really helped. My mom is having surgery tomorrow so I’ll have to take care of her for the next few days, plus my wife’s car was throwing some nasty codes that had me stressed. At least now I know work is in a good place as I take a few days off to take care of my mom and tinker with a car.

End of life hardware replacement at work. Deadline for the project is in a few weeks. Our engineering team just sent out a new BIOS upgrade for devices that get them up to TPM 2.0 which is the main requirement for the project. We went from ~5 completions a week to under one now to stay on track. Wasn’t really too worried about it but it will make work a piece of cake for a little.
