I don’t know if they’re all bastards, but HR is absolutely not your friend. Human Resources <> protections for employees. Instead, Human Resources = protection for the company

It’s funny that it doesn’t have a headphone jack but it clearly has a little notch in the center where those usually go

Say the line, Bart!

Can you imagine Sony losing their shit because they found out people were watching Hotel Transylvania on non-Sony brand DVD players?

This is the one

Better to stay put, accept slightly less money for another year and look at it again when I’ve got the time and energy to cope with it.

but Watch Out

Seriously, though, this is hitting the nail on the head. That dangling carrot of job security can be so exploitative when there’s so many unknowns (many of them confidence-based in a dev’s situation). I’ve heard that little evil voice (recently) telling me “yeah, you could probably go back to physical labor when you can’t find any more work as a dev. you’ll do okay out there”

I work hard for my company. But paying me raises to deal with inflation? Rewarding my efforts and loyalty? Why bother when they can just hold out and pay my identical wage to someone greener and less jaded in a couple short years?

I mean, I would prefer to stay at the same place than hopping around, but I’ve never gotten a raise that pays as good as a new job at a different company

/* 2006-10-31: The default prefix used to be “sqlite_”. But then Mcafee started using SQLite in their anti-virus product and it started putting files with the “sqlite” name in the c:/temp folder. This annoyed many windows users. Those users would then do a Google search for “sqlite”, find the telephone numbers of the developers and call to wake them up at night and complain. For this reason, the default name prefix is changed to be “sqlite” spelled backwards. So the temp files are still identified, but anybody smart enough to figure out the code is also likely smart enough to know that calling the developer will not help get rid of the file. */

The Day After Tomorrow. It is exquisitely bad. In the third act, they run out of ways to make weather the bad guy and randomly drop in a pack of wolves to attack everyone. It’s a hilariously entertaining disaster movie

I learned from this poop challenge that I basically do it every week (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) and had never realized it. I’ve been living a meme for a long time I guess

Do you have any recollection of the guide you used? I’d be curious to look around for it just in case it’s not stuck inside the reddit void. So far I’ve had luck limiting the fps to 30 and setting the gpu clock to 1200 (granted, I am only in the first sky island area and haven’t been anywhere near lava yet)

Is it worth trying to play this on the deck yet? I’ve been dragging my feet because I don’t really care much about making it run and better than it does on the switch; I just find the switch itself in handheld mode stupid uncomfortable and would mainly want to be able to play on the deck instead of switching between devices
