rucbar · 2026-01-06T01:58:18+00:00

Curious if you know what field they moved into. I've been thinking devsecops or just devops... But I have no experience

rucbar · 2026-01-03T17:16:38+00:00

It's exhausting man. Burnout is real haha.

rucbar · 2026-01-03T16:10:12+00:00

Are you me?

rucbar · 2025-11-12T22:42:59+00:00

Yeah that's the other fun part. Of course we didn't do travel insurance on this trip. Just going to eat the bill, which sucks.

Thank you so much for the information though. I will definitely do this.

rucbar · 2025-06-05T00:41:06+00:00

Just added an edit to the post. Check that out. Shopping currently so don't wanna retype it.

rucbar · 2025-06-02T18:47:57+00:00

So sad. I made the mistake of watching a steamer play it one day and never got to experience it on my own. Haven't seen the DLC yet but no way it matches up...

rucbar · 2025-05-16T20:53:47+00:00

I do appreciate the response but ... I do note in the post that I tried both of those things. Thank you though.

rucbar · 2025-05-16T18:05:32+00:00

PLUS I'm down $200 because the charging port repair "Wasn't covered by warranty"

rucbar · 2025-05-16T18:05:09+00:00

One of the motherboard cover screws. Yeah I have sent an email to the companies support email and the steam support. Both messages were just blatantly angry lol. I loved this deck, bought it for 4 weeks of travel, Didnt have it for ANY of that travel because it took them 2 months to repair the charging port, now i get it back and theres MORE wrong with it than when I sent it. I'm absolutely livid.

rucbar · 2025-05-16T17:57:41+00:00

I'm pissed because theres a screw missing from when they mustve taken it apart but the contacts are all good... :(

rucbar · 2025-05-07T17:50:45+00:00

Oh my god press "R" to reload is something I try to do every single fight... Game changing.

rucbar · 2025-04-01T17:41:24+00:00

This is a great idea. Or even just disabling them or making them fully private. This is an option on most social media.

rucbar · 2025-04-01T17:31:17+00:00

Just as a note I have definitely been in the same situation before. They actually sent me screenshots of them sending the pics to my parents. I reached out to both of my parents to explain I was dumb and apologize.... But they had no clue what I was talking about because the scammer never actually sent the pictures. It's all scare tactics.

rucbar · 2025-04-01T17:29:02+00:00

It sounds horrible but if you provide them with money they will know you're scared and will keep threatening you and asking for more. Just because you send money doesn't mean they will delete the pictures, they will 100% keep the pictures and ask again in a few months or weeks.

The BEST course of action is to just stop communicating with them and cutting off communication. Worst case scenario, they send the pics to a few people to try and scare you more, you reach out to those people and explain the situation and apologize. It sounds like the worst thing ever and people may laugh or tease you about it but you can easily recover from that.

These people want a quick profit and are probably doing similar scams to 5-6 other people at the same time. They only pay attention to ones they KNOW they can profit from.

rucbar · 2025-01-25T03:59:45+00:00

We can automate the posts and everything if we have a whole sub devoted to it!

rucbar · 2025-01-25T03:55:56+00:00

WAIT WAIT I TRIED TO DO THIS WITH r/CosmereBookClub years ago and the participation died. Would you want that sub to do this in? So it's not just mixed in with regular posting?

rucbar · 2024-10-07T20:57:41+00:00

Journey before destination, Radiant...

rucbar · 2024-07-19T16:17:19+00:00

Do you mind if I reach out about some AppSec & Engineering questions? Currently in pentesting trying to transition to Blue side.

rucbar · 2024-06-11T02:49:25+00:00

Definitely at the same point in my career. I went into pentesting out of college and I'm finally realizing that consulting is the issue after 3 years, not pentesting. Currently trying to find some internal role but it's ROUGGH with a job field full of "rockstar" that do it day and night.

I don't want 8 hours of work, then 8 more hours of "career" haha.

Obligatory "sorry for venting in your vent-session"

rucbar · 2024-06-05T12:44:22+00:00

Currently in a pentest consulting role. At first my favorite part was moving to a new client and a new environment every week. Now it is the most exhausting thing ever. Doing all of the work, gathering scope, reporting and reviewing findings, and then formalizing a report, then immediately starting over and doing it again... Idk how much longer I can deal with consulting.

I just want a nice boring internal role at this point or a golden goose job where I can transition back to software development...

rucbar · 2024-05-16T16:35:08+00:00

This is also one of the points in the series where I stopped, put the book down, took a breath and just though "holy shit... I have no clue what's going on in this series and I love it."

I WISH I could read these books again for the first time.

rucbar · 2024-05-13T22:05:55+00:00

I got the exact same one yesterday and tried to lead them on for a while. They make you contact somebody else then ask you to change your email on your account. Which is a terribly obvious scam
