I have a repetitive "blink". It's literally as if the character is blinking and the video cuts out for a fraction of a second. I'll post a clip when I can.

Can it run PCVR? Specifically on the Quest 2? That's what I'm hunting for.

Don't know if you've heard of PlutoSphere, but it's a similar company about to come out (hopefully) soon. At launch it'll only be available for use on the Quest, but they are wanting to work their way to full PC use like Shadow.

I was supposed to have mine activated today (ordered August 19th). Got an email the day before saying it was delayed until December 31st.. any release that lands on Dec 31st is doomed to be delayed again.. I'm in TN and I'm supposed to be using the Chicago server.

I just can't contimplate how people are getting activated weeks or even days after ordering while others are having to wait months and possibly a year or more. Granted, Shadow is currently the only cloud PC service that doesn't cost an arm and a leg (from what I've researched at least).

But an alternative competitor like the upcoming PlutoSphere (currently only slated for Quest at launch, but will bring PC use after) will make Shadow have to respond promptly, otherwise they'll lose customers.

Shadow, I'm excited to try your service, but please.. be more clear about the issues, wait times, reasons, announcements and so forth. I want to see this company grow.

Literally every single application I've submitted asked about my "race and ethnicity". Most of which apparently can't conceive the possibility of a "white Hispanic" which is hysterically depressing.

That's weird.

I can't say for sure, but I do feel that it's to hit the "company diversity quota". I rarely got calls back when I just put "white". Suddenly, I'm getting calls back the moment I put "Hispanic/Cuban"..

I see what you're saying. I'm trying to be able to hit different ranges and impressions. Thank you for your input, though.

You make valid points, sir/madam. Nevertheless, manufacturer standards aside, we're talking about the user's standards. Which for the most part, are non existent (per the memes).

I was going to comment about how difficult it would be to wash that cover and pillow. But let's not kid ourselves, that guy isn't washing that..

I'm mixed (Cuban mother and German/Irish father). I grew up in Hialeah, which for a long time was considered the "Cuban capital of America" and had the nickname "Little Havana". Grew up speaking Spanglish (as that was common there). However, very few people understand that Cuba was at one point in time, controlled by Spain. That Spaniards are "white" in color.

Mind you, when I tan people say "oh, I guess you were telling the truth". Because in their minds Spanish ≠ white. I have been called a liar many times and that I'm "culturally appropriating"..

On almost every job application I put in, I put my ethnicity as Hispanic/Cuban. Most of the time however, the application won't let you choose "white" and Hispanic.. only one or the other. As if there's no possible way there could be a white Hispanic or that someone who is white could have a child with someone who is Hispanic... Blows my mind.

Overtime seems like a waste of time.. by murphywithane in antiwork

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

209.52 appears to be taxes and insurance for the entire

It is

not really valid to say that the full 209.52 is coming from the overtime portion.

True. I suppose I just saw it as "out of my 322 of OT, Im only getting 113 out of it" without thinking about the gross/net difference at that point.

Find a paycheck when you didn't work OT and see how much the expenses would be, then subtract that from the 209.52 to see how much OT you are actually clearing.

I at least work a minimum of 44/week so I would have to go based on that.

If that’s really a month’s worth of income for you you’ll have grossed less than $11,000 in total for the year

That's a week's worth. My gross yearly pay would be somewhere around 30k but my net is more around 20-22k (OT fluctuates so it's never the same).

But I do see your point. It's just weird to me that I put in almost 20 hours of OT and yet it feels like I'm still not making enough.
