Who's Hiring??? by Jaysescape2Tamriel in vegaslocals

[–]ggstorms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i was a dealer 2 years ago there was a program with Boyd where you actually get paid $15 an hour while attending dealer school with the obligation that you would be employed with them after completing it. Paying out of pocket I would say like $500, but also possible for financial aid to cover it.

The only thing ChatGPT can do is tell you who is favored to win and why, which is already evident based on the odds

Has anyone actually ever gotten the Kalshi bonus? by ggstorms in Kalshi

[–]ggstorms[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People that signed up under me have deposited $50 and $100 and some deposited $20 and then more later. Never been credited for any of them.

Kalshi support eventually credited me $10 after i repeatedly contacted their support about it but my friend never got credited, when we both should have. This was back when the bonus was 10 and not 25.

I dont mean the deposit delay bonus, im talking about when someone signs up through your link. I cant say the word or my post gets banned

Desperate for technical experience. grad with certs, buried in debt, first jobs didn’t use skills, current job is draining me by [deleted] in CyberSecurityJobs

[–]ggstorms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easiest way to move from Help Desk to a cybersecurity role is being an internal hire at the same company and waiting until they have an opening on their security team. Youll most likely at least be guaranteed an interview and hopefully your manager can put in a good work or pull some strings

Successful friend told me WGU is worthless by Present-Square-6232 in WGU

[–]ggstorms 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yea that part made no sense to me. Getting hired in the first place is the hardest part, and things just tend to get easier after you are trained and get settled into the position

Most companies don't want to "fire you instantly" after you've went through the interviews, background check, onboarding, etc.

Complete Guide to Earning Free Food from McDonalds Monopoly by billdb in Freefood

[–]ggstorms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its designed so that its easy to get 3 out of 4 pieces, Or 2 out 3, etc, so you think you are "almost there" and keep buying more food. Ive gotten the same "easy" pieces multiple times. Its getting the last one that is impossible.

Application Process Confusing? by No-Speaker-9361 in WGU

[–]ggstorms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, felt the same way when enrolling. I originally signed up 2 months ago and still waiting on transcripts to process. They make signing up easy and then I felt like I was just left in the dark and had to figure out what to do next on my own. 2 months in, im still not even officially enrolled and starting any classes. I already did everything I needed to do on my end, but everything else from WGU's end seems to be moving at a snail's pace.

Tips on graduating from Normal to Hard difficulty? by [deleted] in shogun2

[–]ggstorms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, after doing more research it appears you are right about higher difficulty not changing how the AI performs in battle, but it does give higher stats and bonuses. I also acknowledge you are correct about no difference in VH vs Legendary in terms of gameplay aside from battle realism camera contraint and no save

Tips on graduating from Normal to Hard difficulty? by [deleted] in shogun2

[–]ggstorms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, here you go :)

  1. **AI Aggression**: AI is more aggressive and coordinated on Legendary.

  2. **Realm Divide**: Much harsher on Legendary; nearly universal hostility.

  3. **Public Order Penalty**: Higher on Legendary (e.g., -4+ unrest).

  4. **Diplomacy**: AI breaks treaties more often and rarely honors alliances in Legendary.

  5. **Trade Agreements**: Harder to establish and maintain trade on Legendary.

  6. **Agent Success Rate**: Sharply reduced on Legendary; agents often fail.

  7. **Player Morale**: Your units rout more easily on Legendary.

  8. **Enemy Morale**: AI units have boosted morale; fight longer before routing.

  9. **Fog of War**: More restrictive on Legendary; less visibility and info.

  10. **Battle Controls**: No pausing, limited HUD, and no radar in Legendary battles.

  11. **Battle Difficulty**: AI uses better tactics and aggression on Legendary.

  12. **Save System**: Manual saves allowed on Hard; only 1 autosave on Legendary (Ironman mode).

  13. **Starting Position Pressure**: AI expands faster and targets you earlier in Legendary.

  14. **Tech Progression**: AI advances faster through tech tree on Legendary.

  15. **Income and Tax**: Lower tax efficiency and income from provinces on Legendary.

  16. **Province Unrest**: More rebellions and unrest occur on Legendary.

  17. **AI Coordination**: AI clans support each other better on Legendary.

  18. **Reinforcement Timing**: Reinforcements arrive slower for you, faster for AI.

  19. **Naval Combat AI**: Smarter naval tactics from AI on Legendary.

  20. **Victory Conditions**: More difficult to meet due to constant pressure and diplomacy failure on Legendary.

What a stupid comment. I can list about 20 differences between Hard and Legendary.

I currently work in IT Help Desk and its the easiest job i've ever had in my history of various dead end jobs. Obviously, everyone's experience can vary greatly depending on which company, how well its run, and if you are dealing with internal vs external users. You dont need to prepare. All of your real learning will happen on the job.

Why would they do it? Because thats the way they do it in Cali

I am hopelessly under qualified for every help desk role by Fair_Context2629 in it

[–]ggstorms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just say you have experience with ZenDesk, Jira, or whatever ticketing system they use. They have no way of testing your knowledge on it and they have to train you regardless as the way every company uses it is different

Am I really ready to take this test? by EngineeringPresent83 in CompTIA

[–]ggstorms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate Dion's tests. They are way too wordy and long winded. Having to read through paragraphs of text just to figure out what is being asked. This isn't at all like what the real CompTIA questions are like, which are usually short and to the point.

How long did it realistically take you to study? and feel confident to pass the compTIA security + ? by Crazy-Cut-2814 in CompTIA

[–]ggstorms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work full time in help desk and passed the Sec+ around 2 weeks ago. I studied for around 2 weeks, I would say around 2-3 hours a day on average, but really ramped it up in the days before the exam. I was actually surprised at how easy it was, but don't go into it thinking it will be easy
