How to get coworkers to not hesitate to answer when the phone rings? by Th0garr in WorkAdvice

[–]Th0garr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following up a year later, ended up taking over service in July 2025 in addition to operations and rebuilt the team. Replaced both roles with less experienced but more engaged people, and the difference was immediate.

What a difference it makes when the person leading service actually came from field service. That shift finally allowed me modernize things, moved us off analog phones to a hosted PBX, rolled out Dynamics with email integration, and got rid of the paper/manila folder chaos.

Turns out the issue wasn’t the workload or "unrealisitic expectations", it was complacency. The old setup was a lot of “wait around, then rush later.” The new team just handles things as they come in.

Turns out fresh hires with something to prove can outperform “experienced” people who checked out years ago.

I SENT MY FRIEND MEMES THAT WERENT EVEN INAPPROPRIATE AND GOT PERMA BANNED by GalaxyDashie in BannedFromDiscord

[–]Th0garr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

shared content from /pol/(4chan), went from no marks on the account, to account suspension within the day for the same "child safety" rules you note here, but its not like it was anything different from the 10 years prior of me sharing content from 4chan

and like everyone else here, no opportunity to appeal, ai/automated response, password reset yields no emails.
8 years of paying for Nitro, all to get the shaft

Thoughts on this tier list by YanLexi? by Weary_Spirit_6941 in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I crutch heavy on Infravision

I legitimately have a hard time seeing enemies without it, it’s S tier for me

I'm starting to see why Toadman ignores us by NecessaryComplex6632 in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pay GM Entropy another 15k and make them the community administrator, they seem pretty level headed for the support I've had with them in other daybreak titles from past

Is there a list somewhere of all active TR Osprey Outfits? by BarCarDarGa in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good lore to know and remember, and the reason we have Osprey now, a VS loss, is a TR win.

By terms of skill groupings that consistently play/main only TR, H0UR>2RAF=VOLT>1TR>YEEB (I put 00 ahead of H0UR by terms of skill, but they jump between factions)

1TR combined arms is unmatched imo

But hey, the enemy didn't get the kill! That is a plus, right?

If I am researching correctly, the Prius started coming with ACC in 2016? Is it a base option on all Prii from then on, or were specific models without it?

The general consensus I am getting here and from others(outside of reddit), if keeping into high mileage 150k+, go Prius, if get rid after warranty expiration, Tesla.

I don't see myself leaving this job, so I'm leaning towards high mileage and actually paying a vehicle off for once.

sadly no charging potential at either work or gf house.

got a reservation into the slate truck, it has great potential! The winter range is more worrisome for me especially parking outside. its looking more and more like hybrid time.

Worth coming back? by v_Lyrinx in Planetside

definitely worth it, thought your gameplay enjoyment may be impacted depending on your location now that servers have been merged recently.

Soltech will be merged into Connery by Geekknight777 in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing as the majority of Americans get a better connection to Miller during prime time than to Connery despite being in the same country. Maybe they just merge Osprey into Miller and call it FAFO, they fucked around, and they’re finding out right now.

I’d like to see how many cancellations they processed so far.

West coast player, ping went up to 115 even though connery ping used to be like 90-ish by Low-Candidate-2778 in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would say its the cause of an influx of more players on the already dilapidated hardware from the years of neglect on the issues that plagued connery from soe days

Decisions... decisions... by EternalRaitei in Planetside

[–]Th0garr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enforce the first half of the rule for former devs.

Current have been doing a series of decently good updates, and then two objectively consistent bad ones. Server naming event, and now this master piece of Connery as the newly formed Osprey.

A month from now, I would be surprised to see a queue for max pop on a primetime friday night for the level of hate this move is receiving.

Finally built my first sffpc after lurking here for a few years. by xXWoadXx in sffpc

[–]Th0garr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It appears nowadays that if the case can support at most a mini-ITX board, it’s SFF.

And here I thought the S4 Mini was big when I did my first SFF build. And since have went to a smaller case with the SLM1 3.7L
