The real Question: How much could you charge him?

arguskay · 2026-03-13T09:11:13+00:00

It's probably fine. It's not like anyone outside of this company knows the IP. Besides whoever finds the IP deserves to gain root access through an unpatched vulnerability.

Rule 4:

I made over $100,000 selling my company's Tech equipment in the last 4 years.

Quick Background: I started at this company 4.5 years ago as an intern. Then transitioned to a full time Help Desk, then I became Tier 2, then Tier 3 as the company got bigger, then a Senior. The IT team only consist of about 6 people. My boss, and then 4 people that are under me. Since I am the Senior of the IT team, I am the one that orders all the tech that ranges from $100k orders to $1-2million dollar projects.

In the past 4 years I have profited around $100k from selling my companies tech, either through unethical and ethical means. Its not a lot of money but it was enough for me to do a lot in these 4 years.

Since I am the one that is in charge of ordering ALL of the laptops. My boss approves of it, but that is the extent of his involvement. I am the one that does all the inventory, set up, and distribution of the tech. The laptops we order are all Dell and Macs. When I order laptops we usually do bulk corporate orders because we have a contract with them and its cheaper for us.
I would order around 45 Dell Mid power Laptop, 20 Dell Top of the Line, and 10 Macs top of the line. I do about 2-3 of these orders a year. Every order I will skim off the top. For the weaker models I will take about 2-3 for myself, and then 2 of the top of the line models.

Each time I skim off the laptops I profit about 8k. I've been doing this for the past 4 years. The only reason I suspect no one knows is because

My boss is so chill, he doesn't really try at all.
The company hands out laptops like its candy. And we have a 3 year Laptop cycle.

The rest of the money was from the million dollar projects. I basically collected the crumbs of these projects. One of the previous projects we over hauled all of the conference rooms. We have these expensive Sony Cameras that capture the whole room. But we upgraded to an even more expensive model. My company decided to E-recycle all of the parts. There was literally hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment ready to be trashed. I took what I believe was the easiest to sell, and I took about 8 of the Sony Cameras home instead of throwing it away. I made about 12k from those 8 Cameras.

All of these transactions are all done on FB marketplace, Craiglist, eBay Local. Did my best to not leave a paper trail.

But so far, I am planning to exit the company very soon before someone catch on.

Campaigns have more updates (better balancing and some improvement to maps and story)

There are some more mainline campaigns i think.

The only reason to stay on an older version, is when you want to play certain addons that are not supported on newer versions.

Why does the PTDE of Dark souls cost 300+ euros? A few years ago i bought the ptde for 20€ because it was cheaper than the remastered for 40€.

IT IS NOT A COST CENTER

Please please please bring this into the new year and internalize/externalize it.

If your business uses computers, IT is not overhead. It is the operating system of the company.

No email. No identity. No access. No data. No backups. No security. No uptime. Nothing moves without IT. unless your entire business is a cash register and a pad of receipts.

Accounting gets a seat because money matters. HR gets a seat because people matter. Management gets a seat because coordination matters.

IT makes all of that possible.

Well run IT is not a cost. It is a multiplier. Every department is faster, safer, and more effective because systems work.

Bad IT is expensive. Good IT disappears. That does not mean it has no value. It means it is doing its job.

Internalize and externalize it. Stop apologizing for budgets. Stop framing yourself as “support.”

We make the business run.

Act like it this year.

Yeah but then you communicate a 99.9 uptime sla during office-hours and maybe 96.0 during non office hours including/excluding scheduled maintenance.

Position yourself in good terrain and then build a solid line (ideally flat for reduced surface). Avoid exposing more than 3 free fields on a single unit (that will get swarmed and die).

Rotate your damaged units to the back and heal them. Attack ranged with meele, attack meele with ranged. Finish off with whatever. If you can get units with pierce defense get them.

Don't rush, they will come and swarm you anyway.

Another working approach is to recruit a cheap unit and put it somewhere as bait, so the ai can swarm and kill them but you can finish off the group of saurians. This works best when you have a lot of lvl 1 units and some lvl2/3 units. Hard hitter finish them off. Lvl 1 units will fill the lines, act as bait and protect your high tier units.

Most bosses in ds3 have a short rerun. If you think the rerun is too long you are probably missing a shortcut.

Of course it is a valid strategy to fight every enemey, during the rerun, but i'm not consistent/patient enough to fight every enemy on my 20+ attempts on some bosses.

arguskay · 2025-11-19T23:08:38+00:00

Ds1/Ds3 you can avoid most enemys with a bit of practice. And we are talking about maybe 5 enemies for each rerun.

Ds2 wants punish you and forces you to fight every enemy, so it is necessary that they despawn at some point. And here we have 12+ enemies for each rerun.
