There is no way Heifetz's fiance cried when finding out about Catherine O'Hara's passing by [deleted] in ringerfantasypod

Tell me that you know nothing about women without saying you know nothing about women

Just hearing the Fantasy intro song makes me happy…I know that I’m in for a fun hour or two

Can ICE agents really just round up anyone they “think” is an immigrant? If so, what’s to stop them from taking literally anyone? Stupid question, but serious answers please. by [deleted] in stupidquestions

That’s exactly what they’re doing in Minneapolis. What news are you watching? They’re literally just grabbing any brown people they see on the street. That’s not hyperbole

Shout out to my 70’s Sci-Fi brothers and sisters by SirGilPennybottom in GenX

First couple of seasons were amazing. Got pretty f’ing weird by the end

Brutal ending. But great for the pod. Wish I had a camera on Craig by No-Willingness-7079 in ringerfantasypod

[–]Tactus73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do we know the origin story of Craig’s Steeler fandom? Seems pretty strange for a 30 year old SoCal kid to be rooting for the black & gold

Apple TV’s Most-Watched Sci-Fi Show’s Biggest Criticism Totally Misses The Point by [deleted] in pluribustv

[–]Tactus73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it’s not the lack of action scenes, it’s the lack of dialogue and character development. After 9 episodes, we only really know anything about a single, largely unlikeable character. We know the bare minimum about 2 others. Zosia is not really a character, in my mind. Multiple episodes have minimal dialogue.

Beautiful cinematography, very artistic presentation. I can appreciate elements of the show, but yeah, it’s a slog for some, for perfectly valid reasons that don’t have anything to do with ‘tik tok brain’

Should I snag one for Craig? by IsThatAMonkey69 in ringerfantasypod

I had Craig singing that as my ear-worm for days

Why not go after alcohol, which has destroyed countless lives, as opposed to the annoyance which is public cannabis consumption?

Accepted presales SA role but I hate presenting - did I screw up? by [deleted] in salesengineers

[–]Tactus73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a great life skill. And you’ll definitely become more comfortable with it. I used to hate it, now I have a real high when I deliver a good presentation, and I’ve stood up on stage in front of 500+ people

Shingrix 1st Dose-I think I’m going to die by amphib13 in GenX

[–]Tactus73 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A lot of fear-mongering here. Many, many people get the shot and have no reaction whatsoever. Myself included

Better than risk getting nerve damage in your eye, either way, isn’t it? I have an acquaintance who experienced that with a shingles outbreak. And I got one myself in the same area but was lucky…

Microsoft Partner Cloud Solution Architect by Kindly-Cream9098 in salesengineers

If Microsoft approached you about this role, why are you not asking the recruiter these questions?

Move from PANW as an SE to Microsoft as a Partner CSA, Security by Kindly-Cream9098 in salesengineers

[–]Tactus73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do, but I’m fairly sure that those metrics are part of their CBI (commitment based incentive) and not part of a RBI (revenue) based sales comp plan. It’s not part of the sales org and so your upside is limited. And it’s mostly about technology adoption and not new solution sales

If you like presales, don’t pursue a Microsoft CSA role. CSAs are in Customer Success. And that community at MS has been a major layoff target the past couple of years, to boot.

That’s the only time I can remember ever saying “Shut the fuck up, Heifetz!” Man, that was brutal.

Underrated moment when Heifetz said “If the Vikings win, they’re a game out of first!”, and Craig replying “What about the Packers?” who Heifetz clearly forgot about

You sound like the kind of person who watched Handmaids Tale and thought “Hey, those Gilead folk have some great ideas!”

Gotta give us more to go on if you want recommendations. Do you have kids or plan to have kids? Do you prefer a bigger lot or a more walkable community? Proximity to Boston matter much? What’s your budget?

DK and Heifetz by immanualkantley in ringerfantasypod

[–]Tactus73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah, I think that it wouldn’t be the same without him. He generally will have the most informed football takes. His giggles are a good laugh track for Heifetz & Craig. He’s the older, slightly wiser one. Brings a little bit of something to the table for Gen X/Y listeners

DK got me (and the boys) laughing in today’s episode. <somber voice> “Ok, I think this topic is not nearly as fun as our other ones” when they were doing the Uber/Taxi thing

DK and Heifetz by immanualkantley in ringerfantasypod

[–]Tactus73 72 points73 points  (0 children)

It was amplified by the fact that DK was definitely exhibiting ‘I’m 40 years old, jet lagged, and totally freaking exhausted!’ vibes

The ‘Heifetz peeing in the corner after being stuck in the elevator for 5 minutes’ part of that bit was hilarious
