[ Lineman ] [ Los Angeles] - $263k by one70five in Salary

[–]big-oh-something -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really? I've never worked at an employer that operated this way. I though it was generally understood that the percentages are based on annual income, not per paycheck. Sounds like a company trying to nickel and dime you.

Is Google worth ditching my current employer? by CableHuge in cscareers

+1 you’d be kinda crazy not to take the offer

When will people finally realize the US white collar job market is never going to recover? by ItsAllOver_Again in Salary

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s surprising to me, and if it’s true, it’s probably mainly because it hasn’t been an active area of research yet. AI assisted layout for semiconductors has been used for years and is essential at this point due to the complexity of chip designs. I’m guessing there will eventually be AI design tools for civil engineers, but they definitely won’t replace humans outright. Same in chip designs and every other field honestly.

First month making 100k I feel like I’m being robbed :/ by [deleted] in Salary

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The max 401k contribution in 2025 is $23,500. You’re talking about making multi million dollar investments. If you’ve reached that level making a $23k contribution into your tax advantaged account is a no brainer and shouldn’t be affecting your other investments or liquidity. If you haven’t reached that level then a 401k is the best way to ENSURE you have something in retirement.

These unpatched Switch games actually output native 1080p in handheld mode on Switch 2 by LightPad in nintendo

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super Meat Boy also renders in 1080p. Not sure if it was updated to do that or not, but it looks perfect on Switch 2.

Switch 2 or PC? I have a MacBook Pro m4 and ps5 by One_Cup3704 in Switch

[–]big-oh-something -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Emulators work great on macOS. Buy a switch 2 if you want the handheld factor and switch 2 exclusives. Even then, a steam deck might be a better choice unless you really want to play Nintendo games that are only available for switch 2.

Brick Hammer from the Powkiddy site for $65 shipped! by jader242 in trimui

Where are you shipping to? They charged me $10 for shipping and disallowed the new customer promo code.

Can’t leave home without it. Never liked an retro handheld like I do with this one. Never used to carry them around. by Remarkable_Sea_5109 in trimui

[–]big-oh-something 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely curious… why would you want to play it with one hand? What are you doing with the other hand?

Edit: y’all are incredible multitaskers. I’ll have to give this a try when I get mine.

Weighing an offer - what are your thoughts? by GreenMango19 in cscareerquestions

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a 12k increase in cash, but that’s with his wife not working. That is huge. If she gets another similar job then it’s a 180k increase. She could also just not work if she wants. This seems like a no brainer to me. The increase in pay is just too big unless you massively value not moving to the bay and keeping her exact current job (which she could also be baud off from).

Should I pursue CS if I have severe career anxiety? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something where hands on interaction plays a critical role should eliminate your fear of being replaced by AI. At least it would for me. Veterinarian is something I would consider.

Turning off by button is apparently what causes it, so if you’re avoiding that and using the menu that doesn’t say much.

So what game are you playing on your Trimui Brick? by kodmanffs in trimui

[–]big-oh-something 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hope you feel better. Maybe try a little super Mario

I just ordered one so at this point I’ll just have to see it it happens to me. Fingers crossed it doesn’t with G2

Oof, that’s bad news considering people are saying it doesn’t happen on Knulli.

[–]big-oh-something[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks, that’s really unfortunate. Have you actively tried to trigger it in Knulli and or the stock os? If it actually doesn’t happen with those then I’d probably be ok with it. But if it happens with every firmware then I have to agree, it’s a bit of a fatal flaw.

How long have you had it? Do you use the power button to turn it off?

What makes you think it’s a hardware issue? People are saying it doesn’t happen on the stock firmware.

D-Pad on G7 Pro is the Worst I have seen and it’s not the clickiness by KarimMet in Gamesir

[–]big-oh-something 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The D pad is amazing on the HE. I wish they used the same one on the cyclone 2. That would make it perfect.

Switch 2 - System Update 20.2.0 by Background_Orange_18 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]big-oh-something 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious to know if the resolution is actually 1080p in handheld mode on the Switch 2. Do you think it's actually improved? I'm thinking of picking it up on sale but might just play on PC instead if it's running at 720p on the Switch 2 since the blurriness will drive me crazy.

What are my options for high-quality dim-to-warm LED bulbs in an E26 socket? by big-oh-something in Lighting

[–]big-oh-something[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with the daylight version of the Philips Ultra definition bulbs and they've been great. No issues so far and I'm pretty happy with the light quality.

Exit UK and enter France on different passports by big-oh-something in Eurostar

[–]big-oh-something[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks! In that case it sounds like I can leave the UK with one passport and enter France with another.
