@Wipqozn Just finished getting my 6th character to F5. I didn't know who to do next so I just randomized the order for the remaining cast and I'll stick to that.

Unionhawk

opens code file no

41 lines of using no.

14k lines long NO

Frank

Well, yelled at my boss yesterday for not testing his code before deployment.

Today, I hear that we might not migrate our access apps to the web, because it might make more business sense to not need a coder.

SaintWacko

@Frank Well shit

That's retaliation if I've ever heard it

Frank

@SaintWacko Yeeeeeeeep.

He wants to maybe keep them as access apps. Just fix them up enough so they don't need maintenance.

Frank

There's working myself out of a job, and then there's deciding my job isn't needed anymore.

Unionhawk

SaintWacko

Wait, shit, wrong place

Unionhawk

19:26

SaintWacko

@Ash Can you move that to TIF?

Unionhawk

SaintWacko

I guess it doesn't really matter

Unionhawk

more a sandbox item imo

Ave

today's drinking topic: god fuck I'll have to work for 45 more years with only like 15 days off per year other than weekends

SaintWacko

19:27

It was supposed to be a test as to whether Amazon links would onebox

Unionhawk

but I'm not moving it

SaintWacko

@Unionhawk True

BUT

It's also the HOTAS being discussed earlier

Unionhawk

perfect

ON TOPIC

Ave

Unionhawk

@Ave if we have 45 years left on this planet tbh

Ave

19:28

i actually progressed for once

@Unionhawk oh shit now i need more to drink

SaintWacko

@Ave Welcome to the club

Now I need a drink

Playing Dungeon World tonight, and the kids are at their dads', so I'll drink tonight

Gonna make myself a Fitzgerald

Also, @Ave, did you ever end up getting a knife?

Also also, I completely failed to mooch at lunchtime

There are some people from corporate in town this week to be available for my project

And when I'm stuck in meetings with them all day, I extract my toll by making them buy me lunch on the corporate card

So today, we're figuring out lunch, and I suggest a place across the street that's a bit pricier, but has fantastic prime rib au jus

So it's nice when someone else is paying :D

Ave

@SaintWacko yea i ordered it

SaintWacko

Well, it turned out that half of them had to leave to go back, and another one of them was busy, so just one of them ended up going to lunch with me

And neither of us had a corporate card, so I had to buy my own lunch :(

It was tragic

Unionhawk

can it be hometime like, now

SaintWacko

@Ave 👍

Unionhawk

19:33

fine

Ave

we never get corp cards

SaintWacko

I just haven't had any need for one, and the other guy is a contractor

Ave

i pay off pocket then go and file smth and get paid for the amount i spend

its like pay day but early

SaintWacko

Same

Ave

SaintWacko

19:33

LadyWacko gets paid for mileage, and has to drive a lot

@SaintWacko Not sure what it is, but I've never really liked gin cocktails.

Then again, pretty much all of the ones I've had included lime juice.

And I'm not a fan of lime juice.

Nzall

God, I feel that poor squirrel's pain myself

I fucked up so bad. Blizzard released the announced Emissary hotfix literally minutes after I turned in the emissary from Tuesday because I thought it wouldn't come before I would go to bed.

1300G down the drain...

user15026

Emissary hotfix?

Nzall

They buffed the emissary rewards for gold and azerite. Gold is now 2K instead of 700, azerite is 1600 instead of 1000

user15026

19:43

daaaaang

Nzall

Because noone was really doing those 2 because it was faster to grind herbs or do island expeditions for the rewards

user15026

@Nzall yep, I ignored them for that reason lol

@Ave except if Bolsonaro wins, come work in Brazil. You will probably still need to work another 45 years but each year worked get you 30 day off(not including the weekends and holidays that dont happen during your vacation)

The Librarian of Congress and US Copyright Office just proposed new rules that will give consumers and independent repair experts wide latitude to legally hack embedded software on their devices in order to repair or maintain them

oh fuck, wrong room? Maybe?

Unionhawk

shrug

Nzall

I never really know whether tech news really should belong there

Yuuki

"Librarian of Congress" is one of those jobs that I feel like has something super secret going on that you'd see in a YA fantasy novel.

Ave

@Moacir i can't wait to earn 1000brl/mo

user15026

@Yuuki It's probably horribly boring but I'd still love to work there

Moacir

@Ave Free healthcare

Shitty sometimes, but free

user15026

@Yuuki I literally laughed out loud at that

Yuuki

@Ave But then I can't make puns about Turkish currency...

Ave

same here

also @Ash thanks a lot for telling us about the cape

without it I wouldn't have a job today

user15026

Hell yeah, I am super glad the cape helped you!

Moacir

I think I am out of the loop. What cape?

user15026

20:06

I call it the cape of competency

Ave

Jul 26 at 21:28, by Ash

@GodEmperorDune THIS IS A PERFECT TIME FOR THE CAPE!

original post

user15026

Awesome, thanks @Ave

Moacir

This is an awesome method

Ave

I'm just now imagining ash putting on a cape and doing an anime transformation sequence etc and turning into a cishet white male

Moacir

Was Spawn like that?

No, I think I am misremembering things

Q: Does sitting around do anything?

There are some places in the game where you can sit down and the music will slow down as the camera pans from one side to the other from various angles. It doesn't seem to serve much purpose besides that. Are there any seating places where something different happens if you just sit around for a ...

Turns out I'm a perfect fit for Reddit

Moacir

@Nzall A prolific reposter that steals OC from other users?

user15026

@Ave grins this is how i picture it in my head!

Nzall

Instead of showering an hour ago, I first spent 45 minutes arguing with another random user about how I didn't understand a random math theorem, until it suddenly clicked

@Moacir no, someone who shirks basic necessities in favor of arguing with strangers online about shit that doesn't matter

@Nzall I'm so sorry for your loss

Q: Why cant I update my Gta 5 and access online?

I own a PS3super slim. I was updating my GTA 5 and while doing so the PS3 was accidentally shut down. This happened while the screen displayed update no. 14/20 (as in 6 more updates were pending). Now as it happens with other games, the option to update your game should come as soon as the game...
