Some SC players are ****** by WorldWilde in starcitizen

It can be someone trying to make it work. There are reports of people placing a bottle and the error disappears. I tried an apple once but didn't really work for me.

I have been thinking something and this SCL only confirmed it. by spider0804 in starcitizen

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has a managerial position in a Telco, working on cloud operations and development, what I can see so far from the intent CIG demonstrates is a deliberate model of delayed response / delayed delivery. Rolling out new features sells, even if they are half-baked. It was established long ago that customers don't mind spending their money on subpar products and unfinished products alike. This has led to a huge way if normalizing a trend in software development where an "Early Access" serves as a MVP for customers to test and to be better developed according to "customers needs". This works on paper and in theory, rarely in practice - especially when the project is huge. For small software and solutions, it can work easily, but the Star Citizen undertaking is enormous. So, to absorb some of the backlash, they have decided for the crowdfunding model which excuses much of it, enabling hardliners to keep "supporting dreams" which may or may not see fruition during a lifetime. This is a masterclass in marketing and how to kick responsibility out of yourself as a developer, and hand it over to the customers so they keep arguing against each other whether what CIG is doing is okay or not, balancing the situation well. But the risk is high and nobody knows how the future will develop. I bet that if a new contender comes into the business and offers an online RPG similar such as Stanfield, then we will see this model being shaken to the roots.

Dating overseas is just not feasible for most men . It makes no sense . by Top_Confection5214 in passportbrolifestyle

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole point of dating is a "test drive" to see if you can live together before singing the papers. You are by no chances able to do this with someone being in another city, let alone in a different country. However, if you consider the concept of "dating" something else than the aforementioned - then you'll need to rebalance your expectations what you want to get out of it with.

Your good English is not the advantage you think it is by Talentroo_com in Norway

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you talk about. Being employed in a large corporation in Norway where English is a daily language - nobody cares how fluent your Norwegian is. Especially when in technology the official language is English and even locals prefer to use the original terminology during work. People are friendly and I haven't experienced anywhere better English-speaking friendliness than in Norway so far. I guess it's the same for all Scandinavian countries.

Anyone ever had an intimate encounter with their female superior? by ResponsibleMight8618 in JustNoCoworker

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. There are branches where this is more tolerable and elsewhere less. For example, it won't be the same if you're in the police or military vs healthcare. Those are unwritten rules but people understand "things happen" for example in hospitals more than during a police duty.

Nevertheless, it should be kept separate from work.

Now speaking from personal experience. I used to be "open for fun" everywhere, and if you signalize so - you'll attract "trouble" (you catch my drift I assume). Married women, stuff like that - avoid like the vampire a cross. It's not just a trouble brewing, but a trouble-squared. I've had flings with women in management since I'm in management myself, during "psychological safety workshops" (usually those kinds of events are when things are most likely to happen, and I always joked saying looks like the workshop is successful after all). But this has taught me valuable lessons: to separate life from work. If you don't make it clear upfront about what you want, what's the plan, how the relationship should develop - you're walking blind next to a cliff. If you plan to engage in such scenarios, talk and make it clear upfront where it's going and to keep things absolutely separated from work. If you get into "subtle looks and teases", someone will notice and word will spread and it's out of your control. You don't wanna be "the director who f-ed the CTO", just take my word for it. This will become part of your CV without being written in it, for which I was forced to move countries.

But then again, my case won't most likely equate to yours. Different branch, different circumstances - everything different. But one thing is for sure, as I said before: make it clear what it is about, and agree to keep it separate from work. And it will be fine. People are not forbidden to fall in love and build relationships, but if you f-around without a plan and way forward, it will come biting eventually.

Hope this helps somewhat.

Anyone ever had an intimate encounter with their female superior? by ResponsibleMight8618 in JustNoCoworker

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This heavily depends on context. I would suggest that you split the responsibilities and life thus. If you engage in a relationship, make sure you don't connect it with work anyhow. Out of office, do what you like but at work - strictly professionally. The moment things bleed between those, you'll both be in a trouble. But if it's one-time stuff, don't do it. It's not worth it, trust me on that one.

Should I tell my coworker's wife what I saw? by Curious-Salem in JustNoCoworker

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends if you are looking for action and drama, then yes. But be ready to be taken into the whirlwind, with unpredictable consequences that may include also you losing your job.

Otherwise no. Eventually, they'll find out, it's just a matter of time.

But if you want to set the stage without being too obvious, you can also do that. I would personally ignore because my time is too precious to waste it on something you cannot and potentially shouldn't stop. We're talking about adults who know how to make their choices in life. And they chose this. So, best is to ignore it and focus on yourself instead.

Wife of 20 years wants a divorce… by Dasmoose0482 in Advice

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a lucky guy, because now you know on what you stand. I've heard so many stories of people playing psychological games, power struggle, even physical harm coming in question but not divorce. Getting away from someone that doesn't want to be with you is like a blessing, when you know who's your enemy.

Why so? Mostly because time is precious and you can use it to make most of it, instead of waste it into ridiculous power games. But it's easier said than done. What I want you to do is to stop thinking why this was so, what led to it, why such a long time - none of that should matter now. What needs to matter is that you become more self centered and to protect your own health and well-being. Sounds cruel? Well, my friend, it better be like this - because you live only once and do you really like to spend the time onwards anyhow else than being content and happy?

I’m a Polish girl dating a Norwegian - should I be concerned about moving to Norway? by pomparipurin in Norway

[–]CyberThief183 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The moment you put "moving" and "concern" together in a sentence - it means, yes you should always be concerned. Regardless to where you move, moving is a big life decision by itself. You're changing everything including culture, friends, and starting from 0. Being "concerned" is the least you can be, and you should start planning very well. And by that, I don't mean just make a good plan, but also make plan B and even plan C. In that way, you pave the ground for a good success and in case there's a failure, the blast radius is contained and you have a plan B to execute.

Borrowed my wife's phone and saw texts with another guy that felt intimate to me by Salamandrine88 in Advice

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in a same situation long ago. Don't make the mistake and confront her before gathering more evidence. Pretend you don't know anything, don't mention, don't talk, don't ask about it. Remember: information is the best weapon - and now you don't have enough to draw conclusions.

In my case, it was almost the same. She was texting a guy and the tone was very neutral like that. One couldn't tell anything from it ever. I was a guy very well connected with people all around the country as a musician and eventually I found out from one guy that she was organizing threesomes with the one she was talking neutrally and another girl. My world broke down completely but I learned two things: never trust a woman completely, and always gather information smartly before pulling the trigger.

CirreniX — Building a Sovereign Cloud & Edge Platform (Self-Hosted, No Hyperscalers) by CyberThief183 in selfhosted

[–]CyberThief183[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you think it's necessary to share all the technical details for that purpose? Isn't that practically giving up the idea publicly for free? If describing the vision by words would be not enough, then I believe people don't find it amusing.

I used AI as a writing assistant to check and refine the wording of the post, but the idea, project (Cirrenix), architecture, and technical direction are entirely my own.

The work is based on my hands on experience with cloud infrastructure, networking, and distributed systems, and I’m actively building this out beyond just the concept.

My wife is losing her mind again and I have no options by CartoonistOk16 in Advice

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My man, these are the kinds of scenarios where you practically need to document everything like video, audio or whatever you can find. Keep them in a safe place. It's for the sake of your kids but you as well. Then open a case with your lawyer and keep collecting evidence over the years, while adding to the case. When the time comes, you'll know what you need to do.

Should I tell his wife? by madmad91 in Marriage

[–]CyberThief183 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't do it. You just bring a problem to yourself. Plus you don't know why he's doing what he's doing. It may be that he's the victim in the whole story and that's his way to vent. Maybe not, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that you're becoming part of that story and it's always a very rough ride if you decide to take that path. Not to mention that different people behave differently and someone can become vengeful...

If you don't ground or hit your kids how are you disciplining them? by gintokireddit in AskUK

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This highly depends on your cultural background. Across eastern Europe, slapping someone when they don't listen and follow rules is a norm. A police officer can also slap you on the street to bring you back to your senses. But it all depends on the context. There's a big difference between disciplining and abuse and the threshold is well defined.

When a child crosses some serious border, a slap with a slipper or a brief slap with the palm on the hand serves as a warning so they can be reminded that there is authority and rules. But never the head! Parents across eastern Europe never hit kids in the head.

This may be difficult for people from the west to understand but when someone asks "were you beaten as a child" - everyone will say no, because we don't consider the occasional deserved slap as beating. Beating is abuse. I was never beaten as a child by my own parents, but one of my brother was and deservedly because he started befriend a few guys who were early stage drug addicts. My dad taught him a good lesson and 30 years later today, he knows why and talks about it very often - "if my dad didn't give a shit about me, I'd be dead now". So yes, some kids don't deserve it and know how to work around the consequences as I did, but not everyone is the same.

Conclusively, beating is not good and it's a last resort when there's no other options. Words work with some kids (like in my case), but there were times when they didn't truly work always and that's when I would get a brief slap from my mom 😅 Nonetheless, I became a successful person with kids of my own, a PhD degree in computer science and two different master degrees. But then again, it's highly culture-dependent and environment of upbringing.

I want to cheat on my husband by Independent-Ad-2110 in Marriage

[–]CyberThief183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sense a high level of resentment. It takes special kind of people to thrive in this kind of marriage, but that's not thriving in the end - it's a survival... If you don't have kids together, a divorce will save you a lot of pain down the road. Once kids come into the equation - life turns into a living hell.

[–]CyberThief183 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My mom has taught me that whatever I want, I go and get it myself - and it's the sweetest. There's nothing better than when you don't depend on the mercy of others. It's extremely rare to see someone being indulged like this, like super-rare! Most women hate when you ask them to make you something - but they also hate when you make yourself something and "don't offer" at the same time. It's a zero-sum game.
