  • Nintendo Confirms EU‑Only Switch 2 Revision With User‑Replaceable Batteries

    Jump

  • I love Nintendo. I've bought every single one of their consoles. I am skipping the Switch 2 though.

    I feel like giving someone a Switch 2 is a bit like a white elephant. I can't say that I'm a fan of what's happening lately. It's a shame because the industry is where it is because of them. It's a shame they can't treat their customers a little better.

  • Brand Manager getting ready for Pride Month [Smooth Dunk]

    Jump

  • I worked at a company which did the gay pride logo switch.

    I know it doesn't mean much from people but the ones who pushed changing the logos were from our LGBT employees.

  • Jucika and the family dinner

    Jump

  • what's funny is that I built that into my routine and I try to have conversations during family get-togethers

    My parents seem to have broken that routine when smartphones came about will check their phone at the dinner table ... my brother just has Reddit out all the time and scrolls if he feels the slightest bit bored. His kids are watching YouTube on the TV but they like talking ... but he doesn't feel the need to engage. His wife doesn't seem to be all that engaged. Could be either due to him being on his phone all the time or doesn't have much to say ...

    If you've never seen Michael Hanake movies then it's hard to describe. It's not like horror like any of the others just getting us to confront things were uncomfortable with.

  • It's an experience, it's kinda horror but not really. Stars Antonio Banderas.

  • To add onto this, I had to look up:

    Daguerreotype[note 1] was the first publicly available photographic process, widely used from the 1830s to 1850s. "Daguerreotype" also refers to an image created through this process.

  • In case anyone wasn't aware. Eminem wanted to make the final rap battle a little more "real". So he struck up a convo with Anthony Mackie and chatted and then used it in that final rap battle.

  • What idiom did you initially misunderstand, but you prefer your interpretation?

    Jump

  • I honestly like "milk toast" over milquetoast.

    I always thought of it being so plain or bland having it made sense. Rather than a reference to a 1920s comic character.

    Also, it doesn't really fit but a coworker uses the phrase

    "we'll burn that bridge when we get to it"

    This is more of a fix of two phrases which is we'll cross that bridge when we get to it and don't burn your bridges.

  • "xTherapy"

    Jump

  • Reminds me of when I did group "men" therapy and the guy running it recommended we all read Jordan Peterson.

    I don't think he had any ill-intent, but I was like -- eww ... I stopped attending and hope they all stuck to that one book and only that.

  • I knew some bad devs that didn't have CS degrees. They joined because they thought the money would be good and the companies wanted to reduce labour costs.

    It's really hard to explain to someone what loops are that doesn't get it.

    However some of the "worst" devs that I've worked with aren't incompetent coders. They're good "coders" that are fucking shit to work with. They refuse to fix their own bugs, blame you for their mistakes, ignore your feedback and management fucking loves them and gives them carte blanche. I'm talking over ten years ago but we implemented some cache system who refused to publish their docs online to "strengthen" relationships with their customers. Anyways, the dude implements it, doesn't document anything (much like the product itself). Days past after implementation and I see what looks like a cache bug and I say, "Sergii, can we look at this together?" His reply? "No, I'm sick of looking at it" ... I go to the manager and he says, "yeah I get what he means, I'd not wanna looks at it either" ... great.
