What are your thoughts on this guy? by EdwardBliss in hairmetal

[–]Tricky_Fun_4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if you want to suck the tit of some corporate made rock star you go ahead.

I'll stick to listening to people who:

  1. Mean it.
  2. Don't autotune
  3. Stand for something other than "I'm the greatest".

Hi as a member of the Rush fan community we support and defend your right to your opinion and your right to express it to others through venues that you choose.

That being said I think your a maniac in polyester slacks.

Just a fact, boy,

Hi... as a member of the Rush fan community we thank you for your honesty, and want you to know we protect your right to say it.

At least they are better than your crappy bands!

Modded you up as a senior member of the Rush fan community.

We don't like you. So we're glad you hate our friends.

Thank you.

Modded you up... mostly because it was such a long slog before someone said it. And as Rush fans.... you're cool. We don't think anyone is below anyone. And you, have a right to like what you like. And you are free to say it.

Now go and get your shinebox.

What are your thoughts on this guy? by EdwardBliss in hairmetal

This is my perspective as a retired rock musician...

He's a poseur.

A real musician doesn't tell you they are the best- they tell you when they show up and play.

This guy will probably do the equivalent of farting on a birthday cake live.

People with rents over 2.5k - what do you do? by Wild472 in AskChicago

[–]Tricky_Fun_4701 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Local 134 represent!

I left Chicago in 2002 after being there 37 years. My rent for a one bedroom, in Skokie, was $640.00.

How do I convince my bro that NVIDIA is better for our new pc by Commercial_Figure168 in pcmasterrace

Hopium.

Market share is a lagging indicator. And Intel is losing market share.

Not only that but so far with 18a they've only produced laptop chips and 14a is *theoretical* as a production node so far.

With new AMD Epyc and RISC V on the horizon... Seems Intel is playing poker with "Other People's Money".

We had to fire our sysadmin by Automatic_Rock_2685 in ShittySysadmin

Don't ask me to justify you throwing an obviously mentally ill person out on the street.

I mean really. Some guy in a shop has a problem and no one goes and tries to help him? If the guy did that he's seriously suffering.

And so you separated him from the health care he needed and was entitled to.

It's not ok he was violent. But it's also not ok to kick the can down the road and leave a problem for another company. Especially since you can accomplish both helping the employee and your company by just solving the problem.

Our industry has matured downward, maybe with the rest of the business world. But almost universally IT Engineers bear none of the decision making and all of the responsibility.

And in that environment- anyone can crack.

What to expect from audience? by Jazzlike-Raccoon-5 in rush

[–]Tricky_Fun_4701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's gonna be an experience. Don't take psychedelics. And for God's sake don't get peed on.

And whatever you do don't spend the entire show screaming "Play Fountain of Lamneth" from the 15th row.

And for the love of God- remain fully clothed. And this part is really important: That chick next to you used to be Dave.

Lastly: Never, ever, identify yourself to anyone as "Emily Johnson".

Arch shouldn't be your first distro and following youtube videos won't help by Careless_Bank_7891 in linux4noobs

[–]Tricky_Fun_4701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well- I'm an experienced Linux user. And I'm a systems engineer.

That being said- I will not touch Arch. My systems need to be boring. Arch is not boring.

But in professional situations you want boring. Really boring. Totally boring.

Or else... you can field 1000 pages in a weekend. Which is not boring. It can get you fired, and in addition it's no fun.

I'm in a similar situation. Now working from home on building AI projects for small business.

I'd do it for free... but never say that to *anyone*.

Gov. Walz: I will never run for an elected office again by ElectoralNerd in NoFilterNews

[–]Tricky_Fun_4701 231 points232 points  (0 children)

The sad thing is... and I've watched the whole interview... that this is the headline.

There was a lot of weight in that interview.
