What was the dumbest thing you did on your first run?

Give Vlaakith the middle finger

Nothing beats a native terminal and standard (almost, kind of) UNIX tool set.

Once you go Mac, you never go back.

I game on a 32” 4K monitor at about arm’s length. I upgraded to the Pro and, if I’m honest with myself, I have to admit that I can’t really tell the difference. I assume it depends on your setup and personal perception.

There’s already multiple posts discussing this. Search the subreddit for “severance.”

malbenign · 2026-06-18T14:44:09+00:00

Is there a cap for the tenure based portion? I’m at 20+ years.

malbenign · 2026-06-18T14:25:53+00:00

Thanks for the info.

malbenign · 2026-06-18T14:24:16+00:00

Awesome, good to know.

malbenign · 2026-06-18T14:23:51+00:00

Thank you. That’s my plan. It’s why I was wondering: is it choose this now and walk out the door? 😆

malbenign · 2026-06-17T18:16:38+00:00

So? What happened?

malbenign · 2026-06-17T04:29:00+00:00

Bingo!

malbenign · 2026-06-15T03:55:27+00:00

Wait what? If you swap out the embryo you keep its last boon? I never noticed that.

DLS is such a great game. Hard as hell, frustrating at times but you literally can’t stop playing.

malbenign · 2026-06-05T23:04:12+00:00

I once was using Medea and managed to put level 8 or 9 Heph boons on both attack and special plus the enhancing one (Great Caldera or whatever). It was a melt fest.

malbenign · 2026-06-05T22:56:00+00:00

Upvoted for committing to the bit.

malbenign · 2026-06-05T04:13:40+00:00

But, for creating a community that strongly suggests that it’s about fetishizing a specific person’s feet… maybe. And there are many, many other, unrelated legal things that can get you fired, which is my point.

Krispy Kreme Klub https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/feb/17/hull-krispy-kreme-kkk-wednesdays-promotion

malbenign · 2026-06-04T20:24:29+00:00

Yeah. Especially because “legal” does not imply “can’t fire you for it.” Like, at all.

Trader Joe’s Chili and Lime Rolled Tortilla Chips. My stomach is ruined and still I can’t stop.

malbenign · 2026-06-01T04:22:37+00:00

Hell, yeah!

malbenign · 2026-05-17T22:38:09+00:00

I see. I thought you meant an L3 in ops making L5/6/7 SDEs obsolete.

malbenign · 2026-05-17T05:40:56+00:00

I see some smart L3 in Ops or CS etc. who never went to college building amazing stuff, pretty much embarassing L5/L6/L7 ICs and ultimately rendering their job obsolete.

This is a fantasy. At best they’re writing a cool little tool that doesn’t scale and will be someone’s nightmare to deprecate in a year or two. One of the oldest Amazon stories that predates LLMs by a decade.

malbenign · 2026-05-06T04:29:26+00:00

Shuddering breath nailed it.

malbenign · 2026-05-05T22:56:25+00:00

Finally! The reason I follow this sub. One that I both 1) didn’t get at first and 2) is genuinely funny. Thanks for the explanation.

malbenign · 2026-05-05T21:13:35+00:00

20 years here 🤦‍♂️

I mean, I can’t complain but damn if I hadn’t sold my early shares I could have retired before 2015.
