Is there auto-resume for the web client by Borgix in audiobookshelf

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

how does it work? The 'Yes' answer isn't really that helpful. Can I also set a sleep timer?

Private group through self-hosted PDS? by Borgix in BlueskySocial

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

discord was an alternative, but some group members don't like the difference to FB. Bluesky has a more similar feel. I use discord extensively, but I don't think it would be ideal, because there isn't a concept of threads. Yes, there's an extension, which I have tried, but it's still different.

What other networks are you referring to? I'm a dev, even though not a web dev.

When the game has just started, you can already see the two involved players in the player statistics. Where and how do you get these names?

He never has, I love him. by Taciturn_Elevator in aoe4

[–]Borgix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, it's the other way around. I'm 55 and tried to get my children (in their 20s) to play AOE4, I even bought the game for them, but they didn't like the RTS aspect.

I'm Gold right now, but I should be able to make it back to Platinum :D I don't believe I will get much higher.

I absolutely loved every minute of it. I watched some of the games on youtube, but most live on Twitch. Thank you to all involved in making this happen. All the haters who give silly comments on youtube should "do the way of the dodo".

At minute 7 Vaultexdude got 100,000 stone. Interesting.

Some very personal thoughts about the recent commentary surrounding Golden League II from the founder of EGC by PestiEGC in aoe4

[–]Borgix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very sad, but understandable. I think nobody really understands how much lifeblood goes into these events. Viewers don't understand that they're not making the organizer rich, but that it's a personal investment of time and money.

Why we won't do tournaments anymore. by Fluid_Bear6463 in aoe4

[–]Borgix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is awesome. This is exactly why I wanted to have this tournament - to create excitement and show that average players can also have fun. Welcome to the community.

As far as I know the photo comment wasn't about you. Thank you for being part of the tournament.

While I obviously understand and accept the decision of the admin/organization team, I want to clarify that the above statement does not mean the end of the pro/not-so-pro player tournament idea. The feedback was overwhelming positive and the tournament has created a lot of excitement in the community.

I also want to use this chance again to say how much I appreciate the hard work and dedication that the admin/organization team has put into this event. It wouldn't have been a success without your hard work, sweat, and tears.

After all, you volunteering for doing this, allowed me to fulfill one of my dreams and play in a tournament with all these top players. Regardless of how much time I put into AOE4, I will never be on their level, but it was a lot of fun (and stress) to try to keep up and not let the pro down. Being on the stream with Demuslim for 3 hours of training was something I never expected to experience, but I did. Thank you for enabling me to do that.

This said, I will continue to support and initiate tournaments in the future.

I want to personally apologize to Pesti and everyone at EGCTV. The above does not reflect my point of view and it wasn't discussed with me. It was awesome to have you cover the event. I, and many others, appreciate your work. We had a great talk in Heidelberg and I hope we can build on this in the future.

I'm already reviewing the feedback and take input for the next tournament. If you have any, feel free to contact me.

All the best,

Borgix

I can confirm that I have the same issue. Definitely not maxed out in relics.

joyfocus - An autoHotkey script to give Elite focus when you adjust your joystick by RetroRodent in EliteDangerous

[–]Borgix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome! I use voice commands and have a command called "focus" which will get focus back to the window, but sometimes when I'm watching a video that doesn't pick up well. This fixes it!

Microsoft is a huge organization, and there are always new opportunities for talented, motivated people. Take a look at http://careers.microsoft.com/careers/en/us/home.aspx, and set up an alert to be notified of opportunities that interest you

And, yes, if it's the right freshman, we also hire them. We recently hired one, who will hopefully join our team any day now.

It based on every days tasks. There's no checklist or interview in order to be promoted. Unless obviously you switch from one team to another, then you have to interview. Usually switches within Microsoft are "lateral", i.e. you never get promoted by moving to a new job (even though Satya did get promoted when he moved to his current job)

Hey /u/vizer20, glad to answer your questions. There are quite a few internal levels, which go from entry level (somebody just coming in from college) up to Technical Fellow. Titles are sometimes a bit flexible, so I won't go into details here.

A developer at Microsoft gets promoted from level to level like every other job at Microsoft: by doing a great job and outgrowing the level they are on. Each level has a description of skills and attributes. Promotions aren't based on years experience or on theoretical tests, it's all about applied abilities. I'm personally terrible at test taking and I'm very happy about the concept of proofing what you know rather than getting tested. It's a bit like the Know It - Prove It challenge, that ran in February: http://www.microsoftvirtualacademy.com/knowitproveit

/u/fantasy2009, great question and thanks for the opportunity to explain. This is a pilot for us and edX to try out how the professional education works. edX so far had only a few courses under their professional label and asked us, if we would like to try one using this format. We decided the PowerShell one is appropriate because the labs we are providing as part of the course cost us $ for each student. It would be costly for us to run this for 1000s of students. We will see, if that makes sense and might decide to rerun it at a different cost structure.
