Shit happens.

When I reformat or get a new one. ~5 years.

I like the philosophy of buying the cheap color first and then buying the sturdier color – if the first one breaks.

Took a bit - but glad to see it does go over lighter frameworks than running k8s.

More profitable if you’re onsite.

Superglue and laxatives may or may not have been used as a method of torture - so maybe it’s documented.

Somewhere around now I try to get like 80% of things entered – then I procrastinate on the last %20.

How much weight am I planning on gaining?

My wardrobe is pretty minimal, but it’s mostly duplicates. So I feel like with my crappy hand backstitch abilities I can mend and patchwork things together for a while.

For whatever reason I wear two pairs of socks layered, and the outer wool ones do get holes that I probably can’t fix. So those socks would potentially be my limitation.

TLDR: I think I’m good until death - might only be wearing sandals in retirement.

What happened to Tazmanian Devil?

My lovely anxiety keeps it ever changing.

No love for eggs?

For the same reason, I don’t like using CLIs.

IDEs?

I regularly self throttle to 5 Mbs – you’ll survive.

If anything there might be a slim chance that you’ll hit your data cap of 350gb.

Assuming you’re just doing 480/720p streaming you should be good. But if you download 2-3 recentish games that might kick you over.

You might try turning on data gathering on your router if it offers it to see how much you are using.

If possible - feel free to go on walks by yourself during breaks or go listen/watch something under a tree nearby but out of sight. Maybe find a coworker or two to go on walks with you.

You don’t have to go 100% social or antisocial - but maybe sprinkling in one or the other could help re-energize.

I typically have on-sites once a quarter and 4 days of meetings and dinners can be quite a swing from my usual remote hermit lifestyle. In addition to sporadic walk breaks between meetings, I will try to duck out an hour or two before we all go out for dinner – my coworkers are pretty understanding that I’m using this time to recharge or run/workout.

I kind of just set the bar that “this” is the level of enthusiasm and energy you can expect from me – I’m not a cheerleader.

Improving your social skills is a valid goal. But in the context of a workplace – make sure it’s aligned. Will people listen to you and your guidance on a project? Have you built up enough rapport to delegate or assign work? Etc.

Great color scheme.

Some people consolidate on things in their 60s after retirement and don’t necessarily want more things. If this person has shown signs of that - then something disposable like food/snacks/sweets.

I feel like this pretty much answers it.

API changes killing Apollo.

I have a hard time recommending Whataburger to others – you’re not missing anything special if you’ve never had it.

But – it’s my go-to. Give me some meatycheesyblobness and spicey ketchup please.

You might fact check that.

Yup - I am keeping an eye out for something like this.

Verizon wouldn’t sell anything larger than a 15gb plan - glad those days of juggling SIM cards are past.

But yeah - Starlink has helped a lot. I still have 3 big cell prover SIM cards and modems/router for redundancy.

My residence is registered at my parents house. I’m fortunate for that – not sure what I’ll do when they pass.

The companies I work for are typically smaller - my bosses and teams usually know I’m a bit of a vagrant. When I get acquired by larger companies I’m a little more tight lipped and vigilant with VPN use.

I move every 2 weeks in an RV. So I roughly wake up in 26 different places over the year.

Internet is rough. But has gotten better over the years since I started.

I could imagine that socially it might be difficult for some.

But largely my routine is similar to if I were in a house/apartment:

Weekdays: work, cook/eat, walk/hike/explore, games, sleep. Weekends: groceries, cook/eat, chores/maintenance, relocate if needed, walk/hike/explore, games, sleep.

Oh - I usually remind people they’re giving up a dishwasher and laundry machines unless they’re going pretty big on their RV purchase.

Recently I’ve been parking during the summer and flying to different countries. It’s more or less the same - solid internet is a challenge and you get to work on a potential language barrier.

Good excuse to buy a drone.

You don’t have to confirm/deny - but I’m going to pretend this niche is selling tiefling horns/ears.

…. we’re confident these socks aren’t being stiffened with bodily fluid?

I don’t immediately know what in particular transitions someone from killer to “serial” killer.

But I could see if it was someone who wiped out a van of people or a husband coming back home to his wife cheating with a couple and murdering them being potentially released after a long sentence.

I would add an addendum that they’re 3 separate murders cases and not a single event.

I’m envisioning someone just throwing around Lego bricks constantly.

1. This doesn’t look like it was written by someone that isn’t intelligent.

2. You’re probably self medicating yourself through ADHD and/or anxiety and it’s also not helping with the anxiety and/or depression you might be experiencing.

3. 20s is prime “what do I do with my life” for most - and it doesn’t always go away as you age.

Boss saved money on throwing a team building event…

+1 - I dug in deep during Covid and find myself still logging in occasionally for World Versus World.

What roles in tech do you consider needing a Masters?

+1 to being out of contact – It can honestly wait until the next time you’re near a work computer. (I’m hoping a work laptop or something is involved here.)

Our retirement is tied to it.

I have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about – but I might check if some harness extension with the same pinout exists and if it could be relocated to the interior.

Throwing a smaller 12v fan or some kind of ducting to direct air across the heatsink would certainly be the cheapest/easiest first pass solution.

I need laugh tracks so I know when to laugh.
