Ubisoft’s bread and butter were never assassin’s creed type hardcore games, but those trashy looking pet sims you could find in the bargain bin. The only reason they’re able to make the hardcore gamerz stuff is because of the financial security the shitty pet games brought in

I think people are going to get very good at identifying fakes. Only is older people will be tricked.

Suffering comes from ‘thirst’. As I recall, not karma

The US encourages international business competition, but not if you do it better than they do.

Okay you’re a nurse. You should get over yourself and just do it the way the other nurse is showing you. Be humble 🫶

I have no enemies

Love all the people that see repercussions for protesting and their first thought is ‘boy, those guys sure we’re stupid. Now they’ve lost their jobs’

Maybe the people doing the protests accepted that as a risk they were willing to take? Perhaps even the next steps were mass resignations? Hmmmmmm

I only know she’s not my boss and my role is the same as her.

They’ve been in the role longer than you have, that gives them seniority over you.

I don’t understand why you believe you know my role better than me.

You’ve been purposely vague about your role so I am left to make a best guess.

I wouldn’t do this over email. To be effective, the message has to be said next time she feels entitled to ‘correct’ me.

You should do it over email so there is a written record and no miscommunication. You could even CC your supervisor if you wajt to play hardball.

Your currently strategy is to snap at her the next time she annoys you. Not a good look for a new hire.

That one day they will harvest my brain and let it live a vat of dopamine

Is the end result the same? Sometimes the right process gets better end results. Especially if you’re a new hire, it’s worth considering doing it their way just out of humility.

I feel you believe you are my boss. You are not. Stop telling me how to work. It’s tiring. You have your way of doing things, I’ve got mine, both equally good. Should you have a problem with this, contact the charge or manager. I’m gonna go work now.

This is an extremely aggressive way to speak to someone. It’s a little wild that this is what you came up with trying to be neutral and diplomatic. Genuinely makes me question if you’re understanding this person and your role correctly.

If you’re certain that doing it your way is just as good then I recommend the following message:

Hi [person’s name]! I wanted to thank you for your help getting me situated into this new role at [company name]. I really appreciate the difficulties of integrating a new team member, and I want you to know I’m 100% committed to doing good work together.

My personal experience with projects like these involves a work flow that looks more like [x, y, z], and the clients that I’ve worked for using this process were always happy with the results. The process you showed me where it’s [a, b, c] doesn’t make as much sense to me, perhaps we can schedule some time to go over why it’s more effective doing it [a, b, c] rather than [x, y, z]? Otherwise, just for the sake of completing the project ASAP I would prefer using the way I have more experience with.

Happy to discuss this with you further at anytime and excited about the great things we’ll be making together 😁

That’s a bullet proof corporate email any manager would take a look at and know you’re not the problem.

D’oh!

It’s on Amazon Prime if you want to check it out

Coherence, it’s like 85 minutes long and came out a decade or so ago. No script, the actors ad-libed their lines with only minor directions.

It’s a lot like Primer meets the Man from Earth

Everytime they land a hit on you, learn from it, and then simply avoid that attack in the future.

Ya gotta avoid their attacks. Then, strike them when they least expect it.

I just try to avoid giving money to the living bad ones

There is anxiety associated with feeling like you’re not working as hard as you think you out should be.

If they do,that’s it

Tobacco, alcohol, etc.

They need more MDMA and cocaine though.

Graphic Designer

Friend left his job just as a contract was ending for me so I just took over for him.

Since this is probably a young person asking whose looking to start their career: I applied to a lot of jobs and lied on my resume until I got lucky with a small business that took a chance on me.

I’d praise them for answering the difficult question correctly and then ask if they’d mind giving a short presentation to the class on how they reached to solution… for tomorrow’s class.

You’re highlighting the issue. Allowing them to save face. And now they’re forced to really understand it well enough to give a lesson on it to their classmates.

Less walkable / car dependent, further away from medical attention or emergency services, the community is awful

Take me back to 2007

Some additional advice:

Chasing happiness as an adult is difficult. It’s better to seek being satisfied instead.

D3 with K2 supplement can help.

If you want something that’s legal (but probably shouldn’t be) I recommend kratom. Look for something that says Super Green. The less you take the more energy and vitality it gives you, the more you take the more it feels like an opiate.

Graphic Design skills are low key some of the most valuable in any field.

If you learn graphic design and are good with IT then there’s a lot of small companies that need an ‘everything guy’.

You see them advertised as graphic design jobs but with executives assistant responsibilities in the descriptions.

You can’t hide secrets from the future, with math you can try, but I bet in the future they laugh at the half assed schemes and algorithm you amassed to enhance your cryptographs from the past

One day there will be a worm that goes around the internet and will be able to link each comment and/or post to the actual physical person that made them. A global database will be created where anyone can look up an individual person and see everything they’ve posted on the internet, even if it was behind an anonymous username.

This is largely propelled forward by teenage boys and YouTubers and steamers who cater to teenage boys.

I remember being a young boy and getting enraged at Jack Thompson. It felt like he was going after me personally.

These youngsters perceive their primary identities—male, white, and gamer—as under siege. The mere hint of such challenges triggers a stress response, flooding their brains with cortisol. Consequently, when they retaliate by harassing developers, they experience a rush of dopamine. It completely turns off their higher thinking, they’re only interested in the next hit.

I don’t have time to read the article, but I do have time to unleash a paragraph stream of consciousness that asks questions that may or may not be delusions on my part

How many etherium transactions are able to be processed in one second? Still just 30?

Didn’t fall for it but one time I was recruited to be a secret shopper. They mailed me a cheque for 6,000 dollars with instructions to deposit the money into my chequing account and use it to make a money transfer with Western Union.

Once I got over the initial shock of the money I did some googling and found out how the scam worked. The troubling thing is that I was communicating with my parents the whole time and they never once clued in that what was happening was suspicious.
