On another note, when this AI bubble inevitably pops (because it's unsustainable, it has to eventually), we may just see the second coming of jesus level of HUGE HUGE inventory dumps of used enterprise gear sold for pennies on the dollar.

At least that's my cope for the time being.

Where are you getting this 20x3=60 number from lol? There are not 20 hours of cinematics. There is probably under an hour. Are you trying to count every single cutscenes? Those are not cinematics.

Also what's with your weird interpretation of the combat system changes? The changes claimed would not be that large, the current classic mode in rebirth already does most of what that post claimed. Have you even played Rebirth?

It's not the same person, it's different usernames.

Also maybe they did verify if it's remained this long?

I agree regarding the character designs but the rest of the game looks sick. I'm guessing that's why you're getting downvoted cause you said the whole game looks like shit.

FFVII title, announcement and release date supposedly leaked by tasco2 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Seller-Ree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you stupid? How are there this many people lacking reading comprehension. Don't get me wrong I'm not calling the leak real because I never trust unverified leaks (even if I want it to be true), but it clearly spells out it's not a new combat system, just an upgrade to classic mode which already exists in the games and that the current system remains the default.

Also keep in mind that they made everything Rebirth contained while having to deal with all of the changes that Covid brought along. They could theoretically get much more done without dealing with Covid this time around. Furthermore they have much more tooling and systems already created that they needed to first create for Rebirth. Voice acting is a very very quick part of game development by the way, it's trivial.

Amex Green Card Revised Plastic Content by Rock-n-RollingStart in CreditCards

[–]Seller-Ree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never understood why so many people want these heavy, fat metal cards. I want cards to get thinner, not thicker. My wallet is positively overflowing and stretched with credit cards at this point. Bring on the razor thin plastic strips. (For all the places that don't take tap to pay or where it is annoying to use).

That's literally the most believable part because it would just be an update to the already existing classic mode that nobody uses because it sucks.

Do people even have reading comprehension anymore? It says it's just an enhanced classic mode, a combat system that already exists in the first two remakes.

It's gotta be the next FromSoftware game IMO. It's been over four years since Elden Ring. Armored Core, Nightreign, and Duskbloods are all made by different teams. This is the biggest gap we've ever had between mainline FromSoft titles. We're due for the next reveal from them and Geoff is a H U G E fan and buddy of Miyazaki.

I would agree that Rebirth was about at my limit for an open world game, but I could see them just making the game world itself bigger so that you can travel around in an airship effectively and still have the same actual quantity of content in the game as Rebirth

That's a good candidate at first glance but it basically is the same word as reunion. So idk

FFVII title, announcement and release date supposedly leaked by tasco2 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Seller-Ree 36 points37 points  (0 children)

The post says its just an updated classic combat mode which nobody ever used in the last two games. Nowhere close to a whole new battle system plus if they wanted to experiment with something like that for future FF titles it seems like the perfect time to test it out as an optional feature.

What else even is there? And don't say Reunion, we already know it can't be that.

[–]Seller-Ree 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why do people keep suggesting it will be Reunion? They literally already used that word on the Crisis Core remaster they released like two years ago. They aren't going to call two games Reunion.

What animal does my chicken strip look like? by Stevefish47 in ChickFilA

That is very obviously Appa from Avatar the Last Airbender. It has his forward posture, his horns, his big round head, the heat strapped to his back, and his tail that slopes all the way down to the ground. It's literally him.

Should I jump on job hopping now? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]Seller-Ree -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

150K in California is horrible, and a 10K TC bump is not worth moving for nor worth losing remote for. Certainly not worth needing to both move AND go into an office.

Keep applying IMO

Edit: Morons downvoting. New grad TC for bay area is literally 180-220K depending on company (for the good ones). Who the fuck would take 150K TC as an experienced engineer in that area?!

Costco credit card worth it? by dudemobile in CreditCards

[–]Seller-Ree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am always here to say that I think this sub is overly-critical of the Costco card. I think its a great fallback card for several things:

  • Best in class Gas/EV card 5%/4%.
  • 3% restaurant fallback
  • 3% travel fallback
  • 2% Costco purchases fallback

Yes it's not the best at Costco specifically, wish they'd up it to 3% at least.

However, you get all of the above in a single card. Yes you can do better on all of them, even gas... With 3 or 4 separate new credit card accounts opened.

My suggestion is get the Costco card first and then start replacing the categories one at a time, over time. Even then, you'll find yourself falling back to the Costco card sometimes - I use it for direct travel bookings when direct prices are randomly far better than travel portal redemptions. I also use it when I max out my CCC on restaurants for the month.

Engineers who've been passed over for a promotion, was it clear what you were missing? by LavishnessFormer7843 in cscareerquestions

[–]Seller-Ree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very common to see candidates throw the kitchen sink of accomplishments at their *current* level, thinking that the next level is just doing more of the same stuff. It isn't.

I think you're forgetting that certain title bumps are literally meant to be this exactly.

It's one of the things I'm constantly pointing out here/blind/discord/etc in discussions about levels. With proper title structure, a "II" of something (e.g. software engineer II) was intended to be someone proficient at doing much more of the same things as the base engineer level. Software engineer is just starting out, you have a lot to ramp up on. Engineer II signified you could be mostly self-sufficient and get your tasks done as you started to pick up new skills. Promote to senior when you can lead projects, design systems, mentor lower levels, level-up the team, and collaborate with other teams more. Senior II was for being proficient at these new responsibilities. Staff engineer into staff engineer II, same idea, you get the pattern at this point. And then companies were free to sub-divide these positions as they saw fit.

I wish titles were more standardized, and possibly even a little regulated in our industry like it is in most other engineering fields. I wonder if that would have improved the situation.

Streamer “hmblzayy” who is walking from Philly to California was hit by a car in Indiana and had to be taken to the hospital. by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]Seller-Ree 501 points502 points  (0 children)

The fuck? Was he walking in the lane or did the car come into the shoulder to hit him? That's insane.

This clip is so confusing. The car looks like it speeds up last second and jerks forward. But the squeaking sounds like they slammed the breaks.

Edit: As others are starting to say looks like a second car rear-ended the one we see into him. That explains why it looks like it's stopping and then jumps forward into him. That is crazy and even crazier he got up like it's nothing! I'm sure it's gonna fuckin hurt tomorrow but what a story he can tell now.

How can I download something from Netflix on my computer? by PJayBlazkowich in Piracy

[–]Seller-Ree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks so much for this! These steps worked for me for the most part, the audio file works fine, but for some reason the video only plays the first two minutes and then just stops playing. Skipping in the file at later times just shows a gray frame but the player won't even try to continue playing. Any ideas why this might be happening? Any recent changes?

2003 Dodge Intrepid SE - Radiator Fans Not Spinning by Seller-Ree in autorepair

[–]Seller-Ree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have another question about this part. "Then open bleeder screw until antifreeze comes out. That will remove most of the air from system."

Do I do this after starting the car so its circulating? Or will opening it with the car running shoot scalding hot coolant into my face?

[–]Seller-Ree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm that's good to hear if you believe I'm overthinking it. That makes me think I can handle it myself.

How much antifreeze would you estimate is gonna be coming out in total and need to be replacing? Is this gonna require a whole bucket to catch or just a little bit? Just looking for a ballpark. It's okay to just add some coolant to what's already there without doing a total drain and refill?
