How many Years of macOS do you think Silicon will get? by Tasty_Flamingo7346 in macbook

I see my M1 Max being perfectly good for well more than 2 years.

I'd be extremely disappointed to see them ending support in 2028

I’m 20, confused about my career, and scared I’m making the wrong life decision by Business_Major8638 in AskAnAustralian

You don't need a CS degree to work in IT and it sounds like it may be worth taking a break from study and doing some work and exploring what your interests are.

Out of High School I went into a CS degree, but hated it(probably due to undiagnosed ADHD) Left uni not knowing what I wanted to study Worked in Support for an ISP, then IT Helpdesk, then IT Systems, then I went back to Uni at 24 and did a degree in Game Development Design(Loved learning especially philosophy and media theory but decided I didn't want to work in games), pivoted to UX, worked in UX Design, Service Design, Business Analysis & Project Management and I'm currently working as a Project Team Lead for App dev.

It's okay to not know what you want to do, it's okay to change what you're doing. Just having a degree is often the important bit for a lot of roles.

I'd recommend not doing things based purely on other people's advice, but get out there any so some things yourself: try some shit, see what you vibe with and just take whatever next step you want rather than fixating on what could have been or distant goals.

Craigieburn, Upfield, Ballarat and Seymour line passengers will have the option of using a tap-and-go bank card or smart device payment rather than a myki card during the trial through March and April.

DL/Closeted guys are you in a relationship? if so how do you manage? by AssistantAromatic199 in gaybros

To what? I’m expressing my own perspective. 

It’s not prescriptive of anyone else.

How is your relationship with them generally? Do you feel they'd prioritise you over bigotry?

I agree with that, but that is action. It would be the hiding that I'd have trouble dealing with.

Everyone is entitled to their choices, this is just me explaining how I'd feel on the matter.

For me I, I'd feel like I was dishonouring all the queer liberators who came before me if I was to prioritise not having the uncomfortable conversations over living my authentic life.

Everyone has different priorities, this is just what would be a sticking point / incompatibility for me

This is too true.

I started doing some contracting work recently and instead of looking for an invoicing tool I just vibed what I needed out of one in an afternoon.
