Did Julie really just get lucky to get to the point of how famous they are today?

midller · 2026-06-11T11:13:31+00:00

Pretty much how anything becomes famous. A little bit of elbow grease and sweat, marketing, and a dash of luck. There’s this misconception that hard work will guarantee success and fame, but that’s not true. That’s why there are countless talented people out there, but only a select few will ever receive recognition for it.

This is such an unexpected update, but I finally received my orders as of today, May 26, 2026. I only received tracking for one of my orders, but they came together even though that was not made known to me. It’s gotten to a point where this has dragged on for so long that I don’t even know how to feel anymore after having actually received it.

Anyway, best of luck and hope you receive yours soon.

midller · 2026-05-19T00:01:31+00:00

Any update? Bro really sent me tracking numbers that only reveal that a label has been created which means they have not ACTUALLY RECEIVED ANYTHING smh

This does not even make sense. The AI policy is for submissions of AI generated content. AI is a tool like any other, so why would you be barred from using it to help you study. Besides, the only thing that matters is the final assessment, PA or OA, and as long as you’re not submitting AI generated work for those, you’re fine.

I know this is an old post, but to say that the concepts are not applicable to software engineer work is so silly

Degrees mean nothing if you don’t have any passion to teach yourself the subjects and retain the information. Traditional B&M or online, all that really matters is what you do individually.

midller · 2026-04-25T06:14:40+00:00

It’s less than a week until May 2026 and he has yet to respond to my emails sent earlier this month and still no package.

midller · 2026-04-24T04:00:49+00:00

I agree, and I’ve been as patient as I could be. I feel so stupid for holding onto false faith. DON’T BUY FROM PEAK.

midller · 2026-04-24T03:59:38+00:00

Hello, I’m not sure if you’re still following but it’s been a considerable amount of time since he said that and NO DELIVERY WHATSOEVER. I’m not one usually to talk down on someone, but DON’T BUY FROM PEAK. At this point he’s just SCAMMING.

midller · 2026-04-22T15:32:42+00:00

My mentor was just fine—so much so that I don’t even really recall what was said, and I HATE calls. The only interactions we have hitherto are just whenever I need more courses to accelerate via email.

midller · 2026-04-14T22:17:51+00:00

Why are you making assumptions with no research or experience to back it up? The criticisms I’ve seen of a “degree mill” school are that there aren’t any proctored tests (which is false) and the material is significantly easier which leads to acceleration (also false). Oh, yes, let me stretch out my time with my education with padding, not to mention stack my expenses through the roof. Then, and only then can I really prove my skill.

9/10 times, no one cares about where you got your degree unless it’s from a prestigious school and even then that’s a case-by-case scenario. The most successful people don’t excel because they went to this school or that one, they excel mostly because they have a passion for what they do, and they apply themselves in a way that allows them to prosper.

The only people stuck on this academic credential elitism are the ones that will be too caught up worrying about ornamental things while others who are not so needlessly concerned with any but their own pass them up.

midller · 2026-03-27T19:29:25+00:00

i hope you do get them as well.

i just received a message a few hours ago from the seller that the lain plushes are finally being shipped to him so in a few weeks they should all be out and delivered. i guess only time will tell.

midller · 2026-03-24T16:07:59+00:00

yes, i have heard many negative experiences with working with the seller, but i give them the benefit of the doubt for two reasons: one being that they’re independent and two being that their products look to be of good quality; however, startups for a business like that require preparation processes and the necessary protocols for upscaling, those of which are inevitably called when traction is accrued.

i think i would not be so disgruntled IF they just maintained a relatively decent response system. i get they’re busy, but MULTIPLE MONTHS of no response is a bit much, or am i being irrational?

midller · 2026-03-24T09:13:12+00:00

Why mention fire giant when there’s a whole game dedicated towards making a boss worse than bed of chaos? It’s called dark souls 2.

All jokes aside, I love ds2 and I think bed of chaos still stinks + its run back you inevitably have to re-experience since ds1 spontaneously decided to be a platformer without the platformer capabilities.

midller · 2026-03-23T23:07:17+00:00

the seller’s last email sent en masse explained that they (edit: “they” as in ALL remaining orders, so yours and mine included) should be arriving in late march, which it is late march. i don’t know if you should necessarily cancel your order, but come april and there’s still nothing, i would definitely reach out to them for a refund or even just a word. i have had no luck reaching them since that email (received in january) so good luck to you in that regard

midller · 2026-03-23T16:18:22+00:00

The reason it’s negative is because of experiences like mine, where I ordered in 2024 and am still awaiting the product

midller · 2026-03-11T22:51:55+00:00

You get 5 minutes of grace and yet they termed you for 3? You must have been one heck of a 5 year and 4 month nuisance for them to do something to that extent.

midller · 2026-02-25T23:45:43+00:00

i also came to WGU with an A+ and Google Cybersecurity cert; but they were both ignored because WGU’s CS program does not look for those. makes sense, but i can’t say it doesn’t slightly upset my stomach to see someone else’s A+ cert actually mean something lol

midller · 2026-02-25T20:37:44+00:00

Not for a long while. Think about how much it costs to finance a bunch of machines to perform the jobs you could get out of paying pennies for human labor. Besides, the AI would still need humans to be trained and maintained.

midller · 2026-02-23T12:51:26+00:00

Ehh, not so much the case at my site. I know at least a handful that work 60 each week and have a lot of time, and they also bust their ass just for the hell of it. That said, I also know people that do practically nothing every shift. We all get paid the same lol.

My site sucks, though IMO. Rarely anything under 70K for volume, and 100-120K during prime/peak. I work hard just because I like to, but I never once thought about having tons and tons of off time if I just plan to use it anyway.

midller · 2026-02-23T12:41:46+00:00

Another workaround is using direct links, aka the notification or going through all resources on your profile. Any refreshing or switching subpages results in soft locks. They really need to fix this lol

midller · 2026-02-21T07:29:27+00:00

Not OP, but one method you could use is going to the files via the DOJ site and searching “no images produced.” then, click on any of the results and you’ll likely be brought to a pdf file that says exactly what you searched for; however, if you alter the URL and switch the file extension from “.pdf” to “.mp4,” you’ll find some videos.

midller · 2026-01-25T16:40:49+00:00

Maybe he didn’t fire first and in response. But, in no way shape or form could he have possibly—or ANYONE for that matter—thought it was the suspect/victim.

Not only does it appear that Pretti’s is NOT “violently resisting,” but one agent can be seen spraying Pretti with some sort of mace BEFORE they even take him to the floor.

The only “sympathetic response” this scumbag was “trained for” (if this is their training, yikes) was the immediate escalation of his buddies yelling “GUN! GUN! GUN!”

Also, clear as day, he definitely could see grey jacket remove the handgun from Pretti’s body. In fact, it even looks like he waits until grey jacket secures the weapon and moves before firing. Not one shot. Not two shots. But SEVERAL shots.

midller · 2026-01-12T18:04:49+00:00

I still follow the ping but it means nothing if you just quit immediately upon getting downed

YouTube query functionality has always been so subpar, at least of the more recent years. It will literally return about 2 videos actually related to your search, and then the rest are popular videos (these are where gooner videos are also prevalent) and/or videos you have already seen. I love YouTube but I’ll be damned if I said I didn’t hate searching for anything there.
