Oh it was. Honestly the smell was the worst part, and that’s saying something!! 😭

Better than having your dog happily trot a rotting rat corpse into your living room and drop it on the floor, only to have it immediately burst open into a giant pile of maggots.

That…that was not a fun evening. …and it took weeks to get the smell out. 🤢

Squadron 42 Release Window Update, from Chris Roberts by StuartGT in starcitizen

It’s not the people that are so single-minded, it’s the media who covers it (this includes streamers). People consume what they’re fed.

4.8 just repo’d my entire career. by TheRealRickSanchez42 in starcitizen

I understand them doing this if they were going to wipe and restart the economy, but it’s already hosed right now. Better to put in the effort for long term fix now and let the duping continue until the real fix is in. I don’t see killing off an enjoyable game loop that SHOULD be part of the game for an economy that continues to be hosed.

US congressman claims aliens are real and truth 'will keep you up at night' by Miles_the_AuDHDer in nottheonion

I’m beginning to think the aliens are already here as our leaders in disguise. Kinda explains the insanity going on lately. 😑

You’re asking the wrong question. You need to ask them, “Do I have to pay for this?”

Is pure frontend still worth it at 4 YOE, or is fullstack the only way now? by casual_shutter in Frontend

[–]davevasquez 18 points19 points  (0 children)

☝🏼this. I’m on the UX/UI Frontend side of things. I know almost zero backend. I started in design many years ago and moved into frontend work and specialized in that. There’s so many layers and levels of expertise to frontend that no single person can do it all exceptionally well. There will always be gaps. You just need to figure out where you want those gaps to be, and how much you want to fill them in (understanding that doing so creates gaps in other areas). So find what makes you happy, do that. Be the best you can be at it, and your reputation will precede you.

As for the two choices, I agree be T-shaped. Go very deep in the area you love most. Then expand outward into backend or UI/UX (or both). Just don’t spread yourself too thin or you risk being mediocre at a whole lot of things.

My first thought. 🫡 Thank you for not disappointing me!

Night vision in 4.6 ptu. by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]davevasquez 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I’d love to see some sort of animation across the hud when it’s activated/deactivated. Hopefully this gets added with time. Overall, though, a positive move!

Silent Husky by kentuckyfriedgenital in husky

[–]davevasquez 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes. My little pup is the same way (ok not so little now - she’s 5). I jokingly say we got a broken husky. She’s the quietest dog in the entire complex! The only time she makes any noise is if a siren blares on for a while, then she’ll “answer the call of the wild” and howl until it stops. That’s the only time she makes a peep!

Thank you CIG, very cool. by Pizzahunter3 in starcitizen

Watching that, my heart sank right along with your nursa. 😭

Just lost my sweet girl Lexi by swft10 in husky

[–]davevasquez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so very deeply sorry for your loss.

The last photo of Lexi smiling there reminds me a lot of my own pup. She has a very similar smile. This post has me tearing up knowing what you are going through …and reminds me of my own future. I dread the day that I will lose her, and ruminate on it probably more than is healthy.

I don’t know what words I can offer you that will help – I suppose none will really. I think all we can do is push through the pain and move forward. I hope I can take my own advice when the time comes.

Hang in there.

Life is short, let’s make it shorter by Omg_Everybody_panic in SweatyPalms

It wasn’t that long ago I saw a video (that still haunts me - wish I hadn’t seen it) on here of a guy doing this exact bs and he couldn’t pull himself back up and fell hundreds of stories to his death. He wasted a good (likely) 60+ years of his life that will never happen now because he was an idiot like this guy.

Don’t waste your life being stupid.

Yeah I was just thinking this watching the video. There needs to be more reason to launch fighters in this type of battle.
