I’ve met people that have gotten decent stuff off there. Their clothes seem nice and the electronics are hit and miss.

It’s about the same rate of crap to quality as EBay these days, and Amazon is only marginally better.

Weird…very weird. AWS owns nearly 50% over 30% of the web, but they’re going after MS for a shitty product (Azure), which is at 20-25%

Agreed…the community editions of their tools are solid, but if you’re doing cloud stuff, get your company to pay for it. It blows VS Code out of the water.

VS Code is OK if you can’t afford the JetBrains ultimate subscription. I never want to see a VS Code launch configuration again.

Really? That scene where you’re lost on the beach was at least 45 minutes. It may have been hours…I’d get to the next part, the cut scene would start and Id put up with it for 5 minutes then go mow the grass or something. That was painful to get through.

Eh…I struggled through the second half…it wasn’t worth it. So many convoluted cut scenes to tell you what the last convoluted cut scene just said.

They would’ve done better with the IP to license it to Nintendo. Smash is the end all for this type of game.

They are not relevant to the election…unless we are talking about how Trump is complicit in them.

Ahhh…the “Look…CLINTON” defense…I haven’t heard that one in a couple months. Yes…Bill was a dipshit womanizer, he also hasn’t been relevant in a decade.

They ARE still talking about Biden. The whole hair sniffing thing that went around. One of them brought that up the other day…Dude…you know Biden isn’t in the race anymore right?

I fought with Ubuntu for a weekend trying to get it to run my game library. I failed.

I will give it a swing again when steam stops W10 support.

It W10 for gaming and Linux for everything else at this point.

By anytime, it’ll be hidden in a hot fix 6 to 12 months from now.

They’ll hire remote drivers from India soon enough.

That’s a fair comment I guess…but it’s the reality of the game. The US was a free market through it’s early history and today is the result of that.

It’s just how the free market ends, always. It starts with a few winners consolidating, abusing their monopoly and buying their government protections, and poof…welcome to late stage capitalism.

“Free Market” people always disregard human nature at it’s worst. There will always be people and orgs that game the system. You simply can’t prevent that. The US is absolutely an end game free market.

This is textbook late stage free market ideals at work. This is how the free market always ends.

No…stack I can usually figure out from the context of questions what went wrong. AI will very confidently and eloquently give you a very subtle bullshit answer.

What’s really ugly is it makes really good code with fucking terrible bugs. My last job for all of six weeks was trying to fix and integrations wrapper of an integrations wrapper on a 3rd party library of integrations.

It looked like really good code, but the architecture was fucked beyond repair. I was supposed to support it for a fortune 50. I quit before they could put me in the on call rotation.

Ok…that’s not bootlicking…that’s a legit plea for some poor fuck in the poorest of situations.

I’ve been in situations where I know I’m about to fuck my coworkers over and I let them know beforehand. Management can eat my dick however.

Bob, you might want to take a sick day on Wednesday…why?..just do it…here’s my linked in info.

Dude…you need to get off X and watch something other than Newsmax
