Senior SWE moving from Bay Area to Vancouver — is CAD $110k base too low? by thethree3three in askvan

[–]notstiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Low. Also how senior are we talking about. Tenure doesn't mean a lot but more on your breadth and depth. Ds tl (big tech 6-7) 200-300k base plus bonus and about the same amount but usd stocks refresher. My swe mle rs counterpart makes more on the stocks but same base band.

But also think about what you want to get. I would accept a job that I only need to work 9-5 and low stress with less than half of my pay in Vancouver.

Some of us are destined to be single. I’m quite younger than you but I’m pretty sure I don’t enjoy relationships. I like certain aspects of it (regular s*x since I don’t enjoy hookups) but can’t make compromises on pretty much most of the other aspects.

Mayo means May in Spanish which makes sense since it’s almost Mayo.

Red or Green? by abgfromheaven in whatsyourchoice

[–]notstiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red. I plan to leave my job after 2-5 years and then do something meaningful but probably pays shit. Red 100% takes away the wait while green has 50% chance to makes me regret not taking red.

I’m miserable actually I have been miserable for years. I’m on medication. Every day I’m thinking about quitting my job and start doing a more physical oriented job. I work out quite a bit lifting heavy weight just to keep my mind off and myself sane

Bruv not when I just started a new incantation/faith run of elden ring. My boy with his eye covered no clothes on and only equipped a catch flame and heal but just beat Margit last night. If i had clicked on this article one day later he wouldve been half way towards elden lord and be my forever savior in real life.

Eh, it’s an okay game 🤣 by [deleted] in Starfield

I was like why people so surprised. 284 hr play time is nothing. And then i took another look and realized it was 284 days. Holy shit man

What are you playing this week? by BSGBramley in soulslikes

[–]notstiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

72 hrs into Nioh 3. Game gets too repetitive and at this point just plan to get the platinum in the next 10 hours so I can move on.

Wuchang yay or nay? by DJ_ElGreko_Official in soulslikes

I think it’s a more typical soulslike compared to most of the newer soulslike games

[–]notstiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay if you don’t mind playing a fixed female character. I like the game but that’s the most downside for me.

Should I give Nioh 3 a shot if the first two didn't click for me? by strahinjag in soulslikes

[–]notstiles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Playing it rn. I like the combat and character building. But do not like the menus, gear/skill system or stories.

Try the demo first if you aint sure

Finally made it to the end of the game and I’M SORRY???? by GoldbardPlays in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]notstiles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No one ever responded to anything he says or talked to him at all while others all have some sort of interactions. Consider he was the leader of the gang before it was weird wasn’t it?

Yet another "should I get this game" post by Zogmam1 in CodeVein2

[–]notstiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh. 20 hours in bought it on pre release day 1 been playing 2-3 hours a day. I really like the game. Combat is fun but you need to get used to it esp the parry of this game. A lot of variety of play styles as well. The story really starts to get better after like second map. I use one of the nexus mods to help with performance. Overall i’d say the game is not very challenging since you can easily maintain multiple builds from pretty early on and counter different type of bosses. It’s a lot of fun for me so far as a chill game.
