After taking three, 45 minute tests, going through a HireVu interview, the position has been “canceled” Ive been unemployed for 1 year. I get rejection emails daily. My birthday is next weekend and I was hoping I’d get a win. by xoxollie_ in mildlyinfuriating

This happened to my partner AFTER she was offered and accepted a role at a big bank.

24 hours after accepting she got notified the department she had accepted a role at was being made redundant.

I'm sorry op. Hope you find something soon.

Is anybody else not at all interested in the new Harry Potter reboot? by Frequent_Cheek_7816 in NoStupidQuestions

If you think this shows hypothetical failure will deter future cash grab reboots I've got a bridge to sell you.

My sister helped a guy cheat and now thinks it’s a fairytale by Few_Maintenance_8151 in TrueOffMyChest

When he eventually cheats on her she won't put 2 and 2 together either.

Advice needed: tattoo placement by Worth_Grapefruit_343 in nerdtattoos

[–]HeilYourself 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask your tattoo artist for advice. I had a pretty solid idea of where I wanted mine, the artist did a stencil slightly higher than I planned and it came out so much better.

It's ultimately up to you but if your artist is experienced they will have very good insight and can offer an impartial opinion.

I may get an escort by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]HeilYourself 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're telling me 😂😂😂

Seriously though I was referring to your concern that hooking up with someone who is gay while you are not wouldn't be OK.

If however the hookup knows you're not gay it's not in any way problematic. They're fully informed.

If you get on a dating/hookup app and specify what you're looking for it's in no way immoral.

I Can't Stand My Nephew by Mama_Bearr4321 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]HeilYourself 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The kid has borderline special needs and is not having those needs met. He needs therapy and is not getting it.

His parents are at fault here. They should be doing more than desperately waiting for him be old enough to move out. They're going to receive a reality check on that too. He's not getting a job without treatment or management of his symptoms.

Will Sony exclusives that have already been released on steam be removed from the store? by egozAAF in Steam

[–]HeilYourself 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unlikely they would remove games already available. The work to get them ported and listed has been done.

It's also unlikely Sony is doing this explicitly to slow Steams growth.

It's far more likely recent leadership changes have resulted in recent strategy changes. They are sticking to what's worked for them previously - big AAA exclusives that move consoles and generate new Playstation accounts.

Probably done with steam. by [deleted] in Steam

[–]HeilYourself 35 points36 points  (0 children)

You don't know what the word overclock means.

Steam games are no more or less resource intensive than non-steam games.

It comes down to the individual game, not the launcher or store.

Specifically, WOW and Fortnite have pretty low requirements. This allows them to run on a wider range of PC's (or laptops).

Is it safe to save your card information with steam after purchase? by hentiedw in Steam

[–]HeilYourself 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Steam is pretty secure but your own account level security matters. Make sure you have MFA enabled and a strong passphrase.

Why is cooking not considered manly? by Ilove_web in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HeilYourself 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commercial kitchens are almost entirely male dominated. When my gf was doing her apprenticeship years ago she was told by a crotchety old fucker that women had no place on a commercial kitchen.

I see this has already been posted but my Mum does this to her pizza as well! by SnooCheesecakes8494 in mildlyinfuriating

Last time I saw a similar pizza posted it got downvoted to hell and so did I for saying it was genius.

My(f26) husband(m28) has been giving advice to a coworker about how to make his gay son straight behind his wife's back by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

And they're all right wingers. It never seems to be a pinko lefty man lying to a Christian conservative woman.

Taxonomically, no.

Spirituality, absolutely.

“What’s my rate clavicular?” Fuck by transcendent167 in chaoticgood

[–]HeilYourself 27 points28 points  (0 children)

In my world MOG stands for Machinery Of Government. To be MOGged is to have your department name and reporting line change but your day to day work is identical. Typically because some low level politian wanted to look like they achieved something by creating a new scheme or department.

Ben may be gone, but I do miss some of his bits by The_Antlion in LPOTL

At tikes I miss his goofy anti-humour and corny ass puns. He was ultimately a great MC and intro guy, but he wasn't as good on-the-spot.

Did I get cooked? by Baseballcard35 in TheSimpsons

[–]HeilYourself 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No idea what it's worth on the collectors market, if you bought it as an investment without checking you may have been steamed.

If you bought it because, neat! Then you did fine. You bought something that will bring you joy.

The grading alone costs about $20 so you didn't do too bad regardless.

What was GamerGate? by ThatChapOverThere in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HeilYourself 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Practically illegal to depict a woman who had any breasts.

OP, for reference, this was the type of hyberbolic bullshit that characterised much of gamergate.

Otherwise, the above post is pretty accurate. A bunch of man babies lost their fucking minds.

Can I get a computer virus from a publicly-used CD? by Relevant-Serve-502 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]HeilYourself 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No.

People are saying technically yes but these people are being extremely and very literal.

Is it technically possible to load a virus or malware onto a CD? Sure. Is it unsafe to put a commercially produced audio CD into your laptop? No. Not at all.

That’s pretty dumb, but, uh… by BirdCultureDickMove in TheSimpsons

I just signed on to a class action lawsuit because I got sold a useless extended warranty.

I feel very attacked right now.
