I have played UT on and off since its original release. I am glad that there is no way to figure out my total hours played.
- Comment on In general, people on Lemmy don't want high effort or high quality posts that take longer than 30 seconds to digest. 2 days ago:
I decided to check out your posts on high quality gifs and they all seem to have the same problem. They are very difficult to follow. There are a number of reasons for this but more often than not, it is a combination of some or all of the problems.
- The font is way too small for mobile users
- Too verbose. No way I can read all that before transition.
- Transitions are too quick.
- Lack of font outline makes it hard to read at times.
I am not providing an opinion on the quality of the posts, only on their accessibility.

I have definitely seen naked women that closely resemble that figuring, so I don’t think it is that exaggerated anymore.

This is the correct answer. Why are they so violent?

No. It’s more like a weird sedative.

True, but life goes on…long after the fear of livin’ is gone.

Reishi messes me up something awful. Strongest and weirdest (definitely not good weird) reaction to a tea I have ever had.
- Comment on Having $270 billion dollars and spending the bulk of your time trying to make more money is like weighing 900 pounds and thinking "ooh, I bet I can get to 1000". 2 weeks ago:
I have a lot of entrepreneur and VC friends. One of them always says that it isn’t about the money. He says “Some people have fun playing video games, board games or Dungeons and Dragons. This is my Dungeons and Dragons”.
He says it a lot so shout out to whomever can guess who he is. Hint; he’s Austin based.

- Comment on YouTube tests removing viewer counts — here’s what we know 2 weeks ago:
Of course it does. You go in for a lesson and fall down the gear rabbit hole. Next thing you know you are watching endless hours of hear reviews and demos. A lesson is a single video where gear videos is an entire genre.
- Comment on YouTube tests removing viewer counts — here’s what we know 2 weeks ago:
LOL. You clearly have never heard of G.A.S. (gear acquisition syndrome). You get on YouTube to learn how to play guitar and next thing you know you’ve bought three guitars, a closet full of pedals, amps, amp modelers, etc., and you still don’t know how to play.

- Comment on If reality worked the way hiring managers and job interviews thought it did companies would have to fire everyone when they purchased new software since no one would have any experience using it. 2 weeks ago:
I think you’re missing the main context of the post, which is experience. It doesn’t matter if you were not an expert when you applied. What matters is that you are an expert when it is time to be, which includes the interview.
That said, common sense tells you that this is all about “additional skills” like specific softwares, not core technologies. If you’ve never heard about Java and you apply for a Senior Java Engineer position, you’re probably not going to do well.

I always assumed that some poor schmuck was trying to dig a hole because he needed a hole and the fucking thing kept flooding. He was pissed until his buddy realized that they had stumbled upon a magic portal to a lake which they could use to get water from.

I have been working in tech since ~1995. I also have been in a hiring position since 2002 and own the top firm in our field. Here is my advice; lie.
Let me clarify. A lie is only problematic if by the time you start in that new position, you do not have the skills to back it up. If you can do the job and do it well, no manager will ever give a fuck about what you put in your resume.
PS: In most cases, the school you graduated from will only matter for your first job. In most cases, your GPA will never matter.

- Comment on "You'll end up in a van down by the river" if you do drugs, don't go to college, etc. advice never includes the warning: "Don't suffer major Depression that gives you complete apathy for existence." 3 weeks ago:
Depends where you look. ~$260k still gets you a decent house in most places. The problem is that the same house was under $150k in 2019.
- Comment on "You'll end up in a van down by the river" if you do drugs, don't go to college, etc. advice never includes the warning: "Don't suffer major Depression that gives you complete apathy for existence." 3 weeks ago:
Absolutely. In 2020 (early days of the lockdown) I picked up a “new old stock” 2019 4x4 Sprinter Passenger van for $46k. I spent $5k Minimally converting it, and it has been my travel vehicle ever since (my wife and I do not fly).
The point of my response was that assuming that someone choosing to live in a van is because they can’t afford a house (as the previous comment implied) is incorrect. There are a tone of those Revel vans out there. Some people are choosing to live the van life because they want to, not because they have to.
