Sometimes, it's backwards
  • That's solid advice. I think I have my identity wrapped up too much in my career, so when I dislike my job, I feel unsatisfied in life. I will try to see it as means to an end more than who I am.

  • Sometimes, it's backwards
  • I tried using VScode to play around with Golang. I had to quit coding to take care of something else. I hit save, and suddenly I have way fewer lines of code. WTF? Why did/would saving delete code? After much digging, it turns out because the all knowing VSCode thought because I had not yet referenced my variables, I never would, and since my code I wanted to save and continue later wouldn't compile, it must be quelled. Off with its head!

    Anyway, I decided to use vim instead. When I did :wq, the file was saved exactly as I had typed it.

  • Sometimes, it's backwards
  • I definitely have moments like this too. I have been reflecting more lately and trying to decide if the feeling is temporary or permanent. I have been pondering what else I would do. Are you considering a career change, and if so, what would you do instead? I don't know if I could transition to something else without going back to school, and it would kill me a bit inside to take out more student loans.

  • Two Linux users walk into a bar
  • The one asks how to do something. The other gives 13 steps of instructions. The 14th step is "???? I don't know. This is where I got stuck too in the same way as OP."

  • i need an rv, and lab equipment, and a helper
  • That makes more sense. I thought it was dryg dealer.

  • Some people don't appreciate cold weather
  • If Ted Cruz was a bird.

  • Sovcit has some plates, going to the Supreme Court.
  • As a sovereign citizen, and not a citizen of the United States, I am curious which constitutional freedom he is defending.

  • Sovcit talked with Shelley, who rightfully decided she doesn't get paid enough for this shit.
  • God bless me, indeed. I can't believe I read the whole thing.

  • Readers prefer to click on a clear, simple headline − like this one
  • They give the example of "job" vs "occupation" but then talk about the headlines "Meghan and Harry are talking to Oprah. Here’s why they shouldn’t say too much” vs. “Are Meghan and Harry spilling royal tea to Oprah? Don’t bet on it.”

    This doesn't seem to fit the simple words narrative they just set up. To me, this is standard language vs. slang. The first one sounds like it may be objective and fact-based, and the second sounds like it was written by a gabby middle schooler.

    I would likely not be interested in the content either way, but I would be far more likely to click on the drivel-free headline.

  • The tallest salt mine in Romania , Slanic Prahova
  • Fun fact: Salina Turda does not mean salt turd.

  • Starbucks replaces boss after sales slump
  • All of them near my old place removed all of their seats and tables. I stopped going entirely. I went for the atmosphere, and their coffee was nice to enjoy in that location. I don't like Starbucks coffee enough to go seek it out and take it somewhere else.

  • Putin calls for international scheme promoting 'Russian values'
  • The problem is that we already value our land as much as Russia does, so we resist them taking it.

  • Receipts
  • Because to them politics is a team sport.

  • This will surely stop people making fun of HR
  • 20% is the going rate, or 10% if you work at a buffet.

  • Google is killing infinite scroll on search results
  • There sure are a lot of "Google enshittifies Google" articles lately.

  • Almost all of the American ones I've heard of are terrifying.
  • All of the best creatures are on the block chain.

    What is the best U.S. bank for accessing money in South Korea?

    Hello, Korea community. I taught English in Korea for a few years over a decade ago. At the time, my bank I used in the U.S. was Wells Fargo. I had an absolutely awful experience with them while in Korea. I never once had access to the money in the Wells Fargo account the entire time I lived in Korea.

    I told them ahead of time I was moving to Korea and to allow transactions there. I don't know if they did, but it got overriden/expired, or if they just pretended to. Either way, when I tried to get money out of that account it failed every time. They would alert me to "fraudulent activity" and lock my card. I had to call, tell them it's me, I live in Korea, like I said, so please unblock my card and allow transactions from Korea. I did this probably ten times before giving up. I was so mad about it that the first thing I did when I moved back to the U.S. was close my Wells Fargo account.

    I am looking at living in Korea again for a time, but I don't want a repeat of last time. Does anyone have any recommendations for banks that understand that sometimes people actually leave the U.S. and still may need access to their money? I am not opposed to even trying to bank with Wells Fargo again if they are no longer terrible from Korea.

    I will have a Korean bank account, and get pay to the Korean account, but may need access to money in my U.S. account for emergency cash.

    EverQuest beans

    Seeing all of the bean memes made me start to wonder how many beans there are in EverQuest. Here's an Allakhazam list of beans in EverQuest. The various Luclin green beans seems to have pretty crazy stats.

    Saw a recent ad for eBay about how reliable it is. Me remembering the last time I used eBay.

    A question on Eldrig the Old (Skyfire, Bard epic 1.0)

    I'm working on the bard epic 1.0, and I am on the part in Skyfire where I need to spawn and kill Eldrig the Old.

    I've read up on Allakhzam, and the accepted ways to do this are to either 1) Have two friends stand at certain spawn points while I high sun the mobs back to their spawns to find the right spawn cycle, or 2) Have five friends join me while I get an instance of Skyfire, and then just drop it if Eldrig the Old isn't up, and get a new instance until I find him up.

    My question is, is there any decent, reliable way that anyone has found for a solo bard to do this? I pretty well have only been working on the epic when my friends can't play. Otherwise, I'm grouping with them doing higher level stuff. Is the best method for doing this solo to just kill everything that moves and keep watching track with fingers crossed? Or is there a better way?

    When did you start playing?

    I started playing with some friends during the beta test. We were all gnomes so we would have the same starting city. I played a rogue. If I recall correctly, the others were magician and cleric.

    I played EQ when it went live, and played until Gates of Discord. Since then I seem to have a cycle of playing for 1-2 years before taking 1-2 years off. EverQuest is the game I always end up returning to, though.
