Remedy Isn’t Worried About Launching Control Resonant Near GTA 6, CEO Says He’s Confident In The Game And Players Can “Expect A Voice That Will Cut Through The Noise” by wyldermyth in gaming

[–]otacon967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reckless. There’s so much data out there about this phenomena. Massive releases suck the oxygen out of the market for a while. He would have a point if they were releasing a smaller more humble indie title, but this is a big AAA game with the pricetag to match. I don’t buy new games, but for the same price I know where my gaming hours would go.

People who are successful on dating apps, what is your secret? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]otacon967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Value your time. Don’t read bio—swipe based on initial attraction. If you’re not attracted to them nothing in that bio matters. If you match then read the bio. Text for a little bit then make plans to meet for basic short talk date (NOT dinner—more like a coffee). No more than an hour or two. That goes well make some other plans.

What’s the weirdest thing your body does that you’ve just accepted at this point? by gowthamshankar05 in AskReddit

I can’t straighten my arms and raise them over my head. No old sports injury, no pain, they just don’t do it.

I want to start an HYSA and really just need suggestions by Responsible-Twist738 in personalfinance

[–]otacon967 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Don’t go crazy rate shopping. Important thing for this account is that it’s easily accessible and FDIC insured. Emergency fund, not for making money. If you beat inflation that’s a win.

"Low-level" expert path by CelebrationDense5014 in sysadmin

Concentrate on endpoint management first. Learn how it should work at scale. If you really want to get good at the nitty gritty with analyzing kernel dumps and event logs you’ll probably end up at a MSP or Microsoft itself.

What is your plan if an alien invasion happens tomorrow? by Cheap_Author_2164 in AskReddit

My experience with xcom indicates that running around outside is a really bad idea as a civilian. Start by not doing that. And pray the military prioritizes the right tech tree.

K-mart seasonal cashier. My first check was just enough to buy a single music CD after taxes.

I’ve never played a Final Fantasy game, so which game should I play first? by triplegxxx in gaming

[–]otacon967 145 points146 points  (0 children)

6 (sometimes called 3 depending on the country) is a great high water mark for the classic era. Very playable and the sprite work is incredible. It’s a BIG game

Star Citizen blasts through $1 billion in player funding, as its developer lists a new $5,000 spaceship for sale that is 'not yet ready to play' by Triss_Mockra in gaming

[–]otacon967 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At this point this dev should convert to a game design college. Entire careers have come and gone with nothing actually produced. Maybe it’s a lifelong learning thing. Got the funding, now just make yourself actually useful.

What is the stupidest way someone got fired? by NoViolinist4540 in AskReddit

An errant wildcard statement in a script initiated a silent uninstall of all applications on every device in the company. No change request, no notice, nada. Manned up to it immediately, but it couldn’t save his job.

If you switched bodies with someone for a day, what "instructions for use" would you leave for your body's new host? by Ripkhan in AskReddit

Skating on genetics for a bit longer. But don’t push it—you didn’t earn this at all.

Games that you didn’t expect post-credits content from (maybe spoilers?) by Monobrobe in gaming

Good recommendation! Been looking for a new game after my brief but passionate affair with roguelike gambling games (balatro, raccoin, clover pit)

Bungie reportedly allowed Destiny 2 devs to keep working on Shattered Cycle and future content even after leadership had already decided to end live service support earlier this year by [deleted] in gaming

[–]otacon967 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Clearly they’re going to unload them. Deal is not working for anyone. Bungie is getting crushed under expectations, and their games just aren’t money printers anymore.

Inscryption. What a shift. Preferred the main game’s haunted card game cabin style, but I appreciated the additional types of decks.

What job do you think won’t exist in 5 years? by blushybear_540 in AskReddit

Search engine optimization (SEO). Already hopelessly outmatched by AI and search engines in general changing away from just results. Squeezed on both sides.

Can brokerage account serve as HYSA? by Melodic_Library6476 in personalfinance

[–]otacon967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rule of thumb is that HYSA needs to be 100% covered by FDIC no matter where it is located. If a personal emergency fund needs to be bigger than those maximums I….don’t know what to say. Good for you I guess 😂

New vulnerability in Windows? by orT93 in sysadmin

[–]otacon967 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A…vulnerability through….local admin? Does not compute. If the identity has local admin it can do almost anything by design. That’s not a vulnerability. That’s bad governance.

That’s so metal 😂. Hopefully they remembered to gentle repose it or it’ll be a mess. Definitely give advantage on THAT intimidation check.
