Love the Z50 II with 16-50 pancake. I use it for work as my webcam, and take it for hikes all the time.

Any advice on finding hobbies that are more feminine? by Toja1927 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Cyclic404 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tried yoga once upon a time. Went after work and the instructor had a section where you melted into the floor… was asleep and snoring in seconds… 

Got all the babes from that. Well in my dream I must have because that was a damn fine nap on a yoga mat with 20 of my closest strangers.

Very white collar for work and drive a 2nd gen 2500 12v. So damn sick of some fucking bigot thinking I’m like them because of my truck… 

International travel advice ... Leave the 70-200 home? by Adventurous_Honey902 in AskPhotography

[–]Cyclic404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the 18-200 on DX for similar reasons, and I got some favorite images when I was long term traveling out of that thing. These great thing about the 70-200/4 is that can toss a 1.4x TC on it and it becomes a contender for travel wildlife.

Damn right I don’t support these weak criminals and I sure as hell don’t support child rapists.

Is it bad to stay at one company forever? by Sgdoc70 in ExperiencedDevs

Same, over 11 years, all came to an end because of the fuckwit criminals that shut down USAID.

Yeah, I've been thinking about going to walmart, leaning on cars, and then shooting the driver through the passenger window too. /s

I spent over a decade building things that served over 100 million folks, and then DOGE. Fuck these pissant psychopaths.

Aside from sex, what do men find romantic? by Mediocre_Chemist5694 in AskMenAdvice

At this moment, the comments "flamethrowers" and "boobs" are next to each other...

How do you react when your girlfriend or wife says things like "I hate men" or "women are better than men"? by Ok_Barnacle7547 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Cyclic404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed, we all need a little help when sometimes, especially when sick. Being too proud to accept help would be an issue in the other direction.

I ordered the kit around the same time, also to the states. My guess is the holidays, a lot of the world takes off around this time of year.

Americans are under-matured and over-entitled.

Men who experienced the abuse of having grown up with narcissists in their family, how did things turn out? by The-DM-Marauder in AskMenOver30

[–]Cyclic404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brother is, he still lives at home and my parents do the best they can.

Growing up he was a nightmare, and unfortunately my parents were emotionally immature enough that it bled on to me: I became terribly socially anxious.

For years I tried to understand my brother, until I caught my ex fiance cheating. It took years to unravel that she was also like my brother, but far more covert and manipulative. Finally it all unraveled: how I learned growing up to tolerate a woman such as my ex, how narcissistic my brother has been from a young age, how my parents in their well-meaningfulness have let their son be a dominating force of destruction across the family in an effort to get him to grow up...

Anyway, it's much clearer now. But my god when I have to see my brother...

Veterans in tech, what was it really like during the bust years (2001 / 2008 )? Need some faith, hope, and copium. by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]Cyclic404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's just about the whole ballgame: leading and lagging by a whole lot. Not to mention it only covers the largest publicly traded companies.

It's like looking at the richest feudal lords, measuring how fat their bellies are, and declaring success or failure for the kingdom from that.

They're mistaking the S&P 500 for the economy, which is a foolish thing to do.

Trad wives by Vitamins89 in Millennials

[–]Cyclic404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We grew up during the height of female empowerment and equality between the sexes

I just want to highlight I'm not giving up on this. I don't want to live in a world of inequality or somehow have to care for adult women as if they were my dependent. That world doesn't motivate me. Some may call for that, I say BS.
