+1 to JetBrains.
I started using them like 8 years ago and have never looked back. My dad introduced them to me when I was doing some homework on a family trip and my laptop was dead. After that, I used them for every class in college, then used them at a job where they didn’t provide an IDE but I had the subscription.
Even when I’m not developing at home consistently, it’s just so much better to have it than not.
Hey, some of us are trying to do a huge server migration before we switch so that we can make sure all of our stuff is backed up properly.
I can’t wait to go back, especially since proton is so much better.
Hopefully my Nvidia card doesn’t suck too bad.
I’m starting to switch over to Proton. I haven’t paid for it yet but my plan is to start paying and potentially grab usernames on other sites so I can have a consistent email across any site I decide to use.
The difference is that Dwarf Fortress only released on Steam because they had financial worries due to some health scares. They decided to release it on steam and charge for it but they wanted to deliver a major overhaul of the UI to justify selling it, even though people wanted to pay them for years.
DF has been in development for 20 years but it’s essentially a full game that they’ve been making better. Yeah it’s buggy (they simulate so goddamn much of course it’ll have bugs), but it’s at least a full experience that you can replay many times and never have the same experience.
Star Citizen does not deliver a full game, it’s just a glorified tech demo. It’s cool tech, but it’s not worth playing in my opinion.
Man I miss when we did live action trailers.
Go check out the ones for Halo 3: ODST back in the day. Shit was wild and got people super hype for a game release.
Live action trailers are just fun and I hope they do more.
God I hate Xfinity. The other day I kept having my Internet go down and I thought it was my network switch but I could still see other devices, I thought it was the router but the router only noticed it after 30 seconds, and then I thought it was the modem until I saw in the app that there was an “outage” to my service.
I called them 3 times before someone finally stopped trying to blame me for using a 3rd party modem and that they had to fix something.
The day another company comes in and provides fiber, I’m out.
Yup. Buy CDs, vinyl or digital from Bandcamp or from the artist direct and then host it on Plex.
I’ve thought about trying jellyfin but Plexamp is just so nice that I don’t think I could leave it.
A few of my communities came over but the big one I’m missing is the college football sub with flairs and everything so I can discriminate against those of lesser teams.
The one here just isn’t the same.
I think that, to this day, the only item I have ever bought because of an ad was my eargasm ear plugs. I may have seen them somewhere else first but an ad popped up and I happened to be in the market so I got them and don’t regret it at all. Otherwise I buy things because I do the research, not because they push the ads out.
The first page of my resume covers my technical skills, a summary of myself, and my most recent jobs.
When you go past that, it gets to older jobs that are still relevant, then into school, then to side projects, volunteer, etc. basically, if you liked the first page, the rest of it gives them more about who I am.
I think at this point it’s either 3 or 4 pages and every time I’ve gotten a job it’s been one where they asked me about the hobbies on the bottom of the last page, which meant they liked what they saw and liked my interview well enough.
When I update it for my next search, I’ll take my first internship off because it’s no longer relevant, but most everything else is.
