That one anyway I lost interest after talking to the interviewer. It was clear to me that he didn’t want me, and he didn’t even join the call for about 30 minutes.
Had to call the recruiter about 3 times in 10 minute intervals before they connected and said the interviewer will be joining.
Got done with 2 rounds of interviews at 2 other companies, but it’s been over a month after that so I assume it’s not proceeding further ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I continue my search…
Precisely that’s what he wanted to say; look at a display and read what the thought was before they wrote the description ! How naive of me…
I was on an interview call, and I was responding to his queries about a specific tool because that is what was mentioned in the job post.
After 2-3 questions, he says talk about some other tool which is okay, but then he starts asking questions outside of the technical requirements which I only knew surface level information about.
Upon pointing it out to him, he says there may be anything written on the job post, you should know how to read between the lines. I was a little confused, and realised it was not worth it to argue with someone who seemed disinterested in the interview itself.
Edit: wording changes.
My motorcycle.
It was bought due to a necessity.
I didn’t quite get the motorcycle I was looking for, and had to settle for this one from a different manufacturer. During the short test ride the problems were not glaring, it was when I rode it for a somewhat long duration that I came to know how bad it was. What’s worse is things changed and my necessity to need a personal mode of transport was eliminated, so I barely need to use it daily anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Tried getting a few modifications done to make it a more comfortable ride, and while it’s better than stock now it’s still not where I need it to be.
You and I are part of a very small user set. I would be happy with 5.5 inch screen as well if my SoT can be 8 hours or more.
What is your threat model like ? Who are you intending to guard yourself against ?
Is it an assembled PC or a pre-built ? Pre-builts may come with some form of tracking. OS support also may be a concern on some pre-builts.
Maybe something like Debian 12 testing might be a good Linux option to consider, of course Windows or Mac are not recommended for the privacy conscious amongst us. Debian is not the most user friendly to get installer image of, but it has a fairly straightforward GUI based setup for a fresh install.
In case Windows is a requirement then probably look into the Tron script, helps automate a lot of things you might need as privacy settings (among other actions performed by the script).
Note: These are to be treated as opinions, not advice.
Any particular resources that you trust to share proper information?
Hasn’t VLC in general been forgotten by the devs ? I don’t remember last when I updated VLC (I don’t have automatic updates enabled).
Not that this is a concern for my usecase though, I’m okay as long as it is chugging along.
Edit: I meant to specify that I don’t just mean the android port, Windows and Linux as well.
I got the joke, my response was in extension to it :)
Reading this, I’m not able to interpret what emotion applies here.
To get governments interested in it… for tracking it’s own netizens… because just about everyone is dealing with CSAM!
Like many people of the Lemmy-verse, I know how to drive a manual (can’t say I am best, or better than average even).
Cannot afford to own a car in this economy. Have a geared motorcycle tho.
TL;DR of the article - Arcane > Cyberpunk Edgerunners > Castlevania > Sonic Boom > The Last of Us > The Witcher.
Yep, it ran for a whole season.
Edit: I don’t remember which season it was on, it was a couple of seasons ago. Probably just after the Ben Swolo thing became popular.
The entire joke that Last Week Tonight with John Oliver ran about this was fantastic.
They did figure out having 1 service for watching a huge library of movies/TV with a Netflix. But they have started imploding because of corporate greed, which is bringing back piracy by the masses.
User action is what will be the launcher.
I click on AC Origins in my Steam install should launch the game, not another launcher which has to then go and invoke the game.
Oh, KDE on Wayland seemed to have messed with something about display for my i5 6400 + RX 6600, because when I switched to GNOME on Xorg the problems went away.
Then I only needed to figure out how to get Ubisoft Launcher/Connect installed in the same prefix folder as Assassin’s Creed Origins. I despise whoever came up with the idea of launcher-launching-launcher, and for what ? Validating key ?
I was gonna write about the fascist aspects of the country, but I wouldn’t say that it’s something completely unknown; many of my peers are okay with fascism just because there is no centerist alternative, as what we have already seen leftists are not going to be better given the same amount of power.
When it comes to religion, it should have been a personal thing rather than systematically integrating it with each aspect of our lives like how it was initially intended.
Sometime earlier in my life I took a decision of not going to my place of worship; this helped decouple my belief in something bigger that I don’t understand, and a cult made by man.
I just want to play fun games that have a great and comprehendible story.
They would also need to be natively made for PC (along with any other platform that the devs/pubs might want). I understand why console ports exist but one can wish.
Some AAA game examples/concerns off the top of my head:
MGS V ? Fun gameplay, couldn’t make head or tail of the story without viewing content from others, and still I feel it’s way too confusing.
AC ? Things were in a good direction from a story standpoint at one point in time years ago but they lost it, didn’t enjoy the new RPG-like direction as much either. Gameplay was a power fantasy thing I guess. Whether I like it or not is dependent on my mood during the session.
Skyrim ? Fun game, never got around to actually “finishing” the game because there would always be a break and I would entirely forget where and what I was doing earlier.
Souls-likes ? I don’t have a problem admitting that my skills are pretty sucky. Effort required to the rewards are pretty bad for me, and there is no particular story that I have seen other than community theories.
I’m working on my years long backlog, in case anyone wants to make recommendations it’ll probably take a long time for me to get to it if it isn’t in the current list…
