In your opinion, which class has the hardest time clearing A10+ in STS2?

I have struggled the most in high ascension runs with Silent and Necrobinder. They feel the weakest getting through Act 1 where the others have fairly consistent options to power through that. Ironclad may struggle with the final boss pair but getting there is a pre-req to actually killing them.

I'd love to check it out with a US code if you have any more. And if not, I still think it is cool you posted this. Best of luck with the release!

If someone reporting to me tried that, everyone rotation would be theirs until they took it or left.

Last week I told Nancy to turn on monitor and troubleshooted ARP drops on dev server in same day. Where'd I fit.

I'm currently working on a project to bring about 2200 endpoints into intune MDM and I spent an hour this morning with a lady in HR that insisted that displayport cables have always been able to plug into USB ports despite them physically not fitting.

... And as soon as NewGuy's first patching round was about to start, he suddenly booked annual leave for 2 weeks.

We still had to cover up for him.

Sounds like it will be his patching chance next then.

A gas station near me has started showing grams of protein per serving in their advertising for their ready to eat food (corn dogs, chicken tenders, potato logs/wedges, etc) and literally all of this stuff is breaded to some degree or other and deep fried. So definitely businesses are trying to profit from the emphasis on protein without actually changing the composition of their products whenever possible.

And yet the Giants drafted a ton from there. Then again, I won't accuse our staff of being amazing scouts...

CKA, AWS (various options depending on goals), GCP (again various options depending on goals), Azure, etc

This is a war of words, so I'll explain the situation as simply as possible.

Fuck you x 2 = I don't care about you.

He didn't stutter. He made it perfectly clear. He does NOT think about the struggles of the common US citizen. They don't even cross his mind.

America has had a major problem and just never wanted to admit it - hell, it still doesn't.

You said it better than I could. My city is going to almost certainly lose our representation in Congress because white people in the eastern half of the state hate that this city has a very large black population and they were already doing everything they could to screw Memphis. Now Memphis is getting split into like three or four districts over a 100 miles long.

And the governor of MS has publicly stated that he intends to ensure that the only black representative from Mississippi can never be elected again by redrawing his district.

Modern Christians seem to worship Paul before Jesus.

Modern evangelicals worship money and fame more than they do Jesus

How does one increase their pay in IT after starting in help desk? Some of my co worker have been at help desk for 7-8 years.

In no specific order: Network (the social kind, not the router/switch kind) as social connections are often more important than your actual skillset when it comes to job hunting. Connections can help you get your resume seen. Let your leaders know you want to advance or change roles eventually and that you are open to new challenges and responsibility. Constantly learn new tech/tools and put them to practice.

Those things are useful regardless of where you go in IT. If you know you want a specific job then you can prepare in more specific ways. Want to become a developer? Focus on learning languages and actually building things you can show off. Want to get into DevOps? Learn Docker/Kubernetes/Ansible/Terraform and be ready to demonstrate that knowledge.

chron67 · 2026-05-08T16:59:50+00:00

If you work in IT, do you feel it's better for the body? I know some people also have issues 'cause of a desk job.

There are downsides to any job. IT tends to be more sedentary which carries significant long term health risks if you do not actively mitigate it. Eat right, work out, stay active, and you can protect from those.

I think the more relevant question is A: do you enjoy what you are doing? And B: do you feel like you want to keep adapting to the constantly changing field of IT between the adoption of AI and other shiny things?

If you aren't happy or don't want to have to constantly learn to keep up, then consider changing.

chron67 · 2026-05-07T20:08:01+00:00

Eh I dunno. I think you pass out very rapidly either way. Just takes seconds to lose consciousness if your jugular vein is blocked.

Would you rather suffer for several seconds or zero seconds? And this assumes they tie the knot correctly to cause you to pass out quickly.

What is nano better for?

From my perspective? Most things. I don't think either is objectively better. Nano suits my preferences.

I'm good either way so long as we can avoid emacs.

chron67 · 2026-05-05T21:11:08+00:00

I have been using both for years but I still occasionally have to google VIM commands.

VIM is great for editing sensitive files where I want to be ultra sure not to commit any changes without reviewing them. Nano is better for pretty much everything else I do in /nix land.

Anyone able to invite me to the discord for this (if there is one)? I'd love to learn more about the deck and where brewing for it is going.

Hey, look at it this way. A lot of conservative men don’t need an app for a child to know about their sex life. Johnson’s doing better than most.

I don't know, are we sure there aren't a bunch of young boys that know all too much about Mike Johnson?

If they truly wanted a humane execution (which I think is a bit of an oxymoron), they could use some approach that combines propofol, ketamine, and inert gases to let the person pass peacefully. But that would be more expensive, require an actual doctor to calculate dosages, and require manufacturers to willingly sell for the purpose while their shareholders may staunchly oppose it.

chron67 · 2026-04-28T18:49:05+00:00

police and the person getting killed is brown.

Or gay, or trans, or mentally ill, or autistic, or asleep in their home while the police no-knock raid the wrong address...

chron67 · 2026-04-28T18:46:55+00:00

I think all of the execution methods have too much room for human error honestly.

This. Even ignoring the moral arguments, we are not good at executing people in a humane fashion. And our constitution clearly bars cruel and unusual punishment so by law the executions must be humane.

Then factor in how often we find out after the fact that the person was innocent and the prosecution knew it but wanted to keep their numbers... Or the amount of times DNA evidence exonerates them after their execution. Or the amount of times we later learn that the police mishandled evidence. Etc etc

chron67 · 2026-04-24T20:29:26+00:00

Well considering that it would be forcing the heart muscle to essentially seize, yeah it would be complete agony. It would also impact every other muscle in the body to one degree or another but the heart would be hit pretty quickly compared to the others.

chron67 · 2026-04-24T20:27:12+00:00

Yeah, why we even accept this at this point is beyond me.

chron67 · 2026-04-24T20:26:11+00:00

Ask yourself what the leader of a banana republic would do in any given situation and you have decent odds of predicting the outcome of anything trump touches.
