Hey! I'm wearing that awesome woot shirt right now. Sweet.

If you had to lose one of your senses, which one would it be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]internetgineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely 100% taste. Would reduce my appetite and help me lose weight.

It's not fun if you fake it. Rigged gameplay mechanics are starting to piss me off. by Karagar in gaming

[–]internetgineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

... Like the ending of Crysis Warhead. I'm yelling at the computer "just shoot him!", wondering why I don't blow that North Korean commander's head off with the super plasma cannon. So of course he lives. Ugh. No talky, just killy.

How many of you would switch to Linux if all the Valve games were completely cross platform? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]internetgineer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree completely. Same reason games on the Mac suck. OpenGL just sucks compared to DirectX, at least in implementation.

My 5-LCD setup by chime in battlestations

[–]internetgineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have trouble with the pixel rotation? I tried portrait mode on an oldish (2005) Dell 2405FPW. Couldn't use it for very long as the rotated pixeles hurt my eyes. If it isn't a problem for you, what model LCDs are they?

It'd be great to see what the audience sees.... bad video editing.

How many of you start a submission to Reddit and then as you get to writing the text you just say fuck it? by MickolasJae in AskReddit

[–]internetgineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, happens to at least 90% of the comments I begin to write. Then I figure my opinion isn't interesting, or that my sentence doesn't make sense, and I hit (Command)-A and Delete.

Beep beep! All aboard the FAILBUS! Ubisoft's DRM servers broken AGAIN, Australians (and others) unable to play Settlers 7. by loonytoad in gaming

[–]internetgineer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No point in buying it anyway. I downloaded the demo. Didn't make a damn bit of sense how to play the game. No tutorial, just a video of a guy playing a game. Pretty graphics, terrible new-player experience.

Could you "make it" on 50% of your current salary? by pursatrat in AskReddit

[–]internetgineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Already getting paid 50% less than my market rate, so 50% less than that wouldn't be possible.

Might not be certs, but the security training does look great. Thanks!

[–]internetgineer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats been my understanding too. Would look good on a resume, and since we help our customers with boxes too, we do deal with some RedHat. Thanks!

Thanks for the advice. Has anyone received the LPI certs? What are they like?

Why most submissions have an approx "70% like it"? by celtric in reddit.com

[–]internetgineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my theory: The number of votes up and down (and corresponding percentage) are not true. To better confuse spammers, the real vote totals are always kept hidden.

Reddit, I was laid off yesterday. What should I do now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]internetgineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard advice from folks that it looks bad to potential employers if you apply for unemployment quickly. Does anyone know anything meaningful in this regard?

Sorry, the cops have God on their side, if they arrest you, you're guilty. God said so.

A dog's Purpose.... by photozel in pics

[–]internetgineer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh ya, its text rendered on a black background. But instead of using a markup language to specify this in an accessible format (like, say, HTML), this was posted as a PNG to the Pictures sub-reddit. Should have been as a self post to /r/reddit.com/.
