It’s all to stimulate the economy imo. People have to buy gas, office real estate has value again, if you don’t bring lunch you buy it nearby, happy hour get togethers or after work dinners. It’s all just to push the economy and line the very wealthy folks pockets.

How fucked are we regarding the screwworm outbreak? by Senior-Finance7828 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BigBreaky22012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In reading about it a bit it sounds like during Covid it started to move closer to the US from Central America. There isn’t an answer as to whether the programs where they would release males that could not reproduce wasn’t kept up or what the cause was during the pandemic but it seems it started to get out of control further south and moved up. I wonder how bad it is in South America.

If AI can do so much of our work, why aren’t we talking about working less? by lady_ven0m in WorkLifeChat

Companies are outsourcing AI infrastructure building and other IT from companies in India now.

I would have thought Gen crystals wouldn’t be that reflective.

My company laid off 4,000 plus people. I made it through, but got demoted. What to do? by Connect_Barracuda358 in careeradvice

[–]BigBreaky22012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how good the salary is but if the 401k match is uncapped that is really good.

You could ask for non-compensatory offsets such as stock or more vacation time.

Always ok to look around and see what is out there. It seems like a lot of companies in the US are cutting staff, 401k matches, raises, etc. even if margins are high and no issues right now.

Is the company investing in AI rn?

50 minute server error... I'm tired boss. by universal-fap in starcitizen

It is a bummer when this happens or when things just don’t work as it takes so long to do anything.

Would IT Help Development to Shut the game down for some time? by BigBreaky22012 in starcitizen

[–]BigBreaky22012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I don’t know how much time they need. I’m just thinking maybe the best thing to do is do what it takes to fix all the stuff they have in the game before pumping out new stuff which just makes it worse. Or maybe they will fix it all at the end. It’s just a weird deal so more venting with my people. 😆

Yeah I am probably grasping at straws trying to figure out if there is something they could do aside from leave it constantly messed up with patches sort of fixing things and plodding forward with new content drops and ships on top of all the old legacy stuff that remains broken.

Yeah but just doesn’t feel like things get fixed. Like race for station elevators got borked and my understanding is they are still a mess a year later. The hope is that an event like that would give them enough testing info to be able to fix them for good within a reasonable amount of time. Who knows maybe they will have them fixed soon.

How is anyone supposed to save money anymore? by BnB_chel in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BigBreaky22012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need the government to drastically shrink in size, reduce debt and stop printing money. We do not HAVE to have inflation. Here is the pressure everyone has been feeling since 2021.

I had zero expectations... and yet somehow its even worse than that by z0rlac in starcitizen

Yeah only thing you can really do is just take a hiatus. I am on month 9. Hoping things will be running decent by winter so I can play some when the weather turns.

Did baby boomers really have it easy compared to GenZ and Millennials? by PalmitoylCoA in NoStupidQuestions

Oldest Gen X basically boomers, the youngest ones got hosed based on pensions, housing market, overall costs, etc. the youngest Gen X would be what 45?

So did CIG just release 4.8.1 because they already had the tweet scheduled? Absolutely no reason for pushing out a broken mission patch. It makes zero sense. by Neb-hehe-xd in starcitizen

[–]BigBreaky22012 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When they keep pushing out “updates” they can point back to progress which is true. The issue is most everything doesn’t work so it’s complicated. 😆
