If anyone is looking for a search engine term, they are all Abrahamic religions, if memory serves.

I have to call out Mirror's Edge, it is a great experience if you have the right mindset.

Trying to play it with an FPS philosophy is not the way.

I thought teams sucked as a user experience... my last job, well my last job I was IT. If it involved a computer I was involved.

Anyways, administrating teams is a fucking god awful nightmare, honestly a lot of Microsoft's eco system is awful as a sysadmin. But teams and sharepoint take the cake for being fucked.

Agreed.

I have met good people who are Christian. They usually don't cowl all their behavior behind god.

There you're friends dad, who barely knows you, who helps you get your car running so his kid and friends can make it to a metal show. He didn't like metal, but he kept it to himself other than saying it wasn't his genre, which is a fair statement.

Why did he devote an afternoon and a couple trips to auto zone? Because all in all we were good kids. He wanted us to have fun, but to arrive (and ultimately) come home safe.

Unless things change drastically for their RPG division, I'll repeat what I've said since oblivion. Bethesda makes great modding platforms, the content within the game is a loose theme that modders can play with.

Yes the new Fallouts are just TES in the Apocalypse.

Yes starfield is little more than TES in space.

I buy Bethesda games for mod potential.

If they said no mods to all future games I wouldn't buy another one. I don't play ESO and I have never touched fallout 76 for this reason.

The Adams family game for the NES.

I never could get past the freezer section, but I never got to try much. It was my cousins' game and they lived in a different state.

Imagine losing your father in a tragic fashion, only for Hollywood execs to make a marketable facsimile of appearance and voice. If they could store his corpse and make it dance like a marionette they would.

Talk about retraumatizing the poor lady.

Sole IT person for a corporation and was on call 24/7/365.

It was just supposed to be a help desk position.

It was for an MSP that... Well, the whole thing was a nightmare, but I had lost my IT hospitality job due to covid and the place shuttering. I was desperate.

I've developed some PTSD like symptoms for when my phone goes off.

Notification, call, whatever. Immediate panic and I have to remember to breathe.

Even trimming every notification I can, it still happens several times throughout the day, and my phone only has audible notifications when I'm at home, most from my wife.

I left that job over a year ago and still I can't shake it.

I found a script for bypassing captive portals on Linux back in the day...

The full functionality of how it works escapes me at the moment, but essentially it searches the network for a host that possibly already connected through the captive portal and spoofs their MAC address.

This isn't the one I originally found, but its the same principal and a Kali tool, so it may be considered more secure than the original bash script I copied back in the day:

The only thing that comes to mind would probably be the latest iteration of the Starsiege: Tribes series. Or I mean, the OG Tribes was great, and still one of my most fondly remembered shooters. Probably still some servers somewhere...

Worked in a shady little PC repair shop.

If the owner was in one of the stores, he would "personally oversee" shall we say data retention? If the customer was a young (legal, as in not CP, but creepy age difference) woman.

Yeah, he backed up their data and looked for nudes. I was too young to know how to handle it, so when he said he couldn't pay me (even after it was due) I told him to fuck off.

I hope he fucked one of the day time strippers he spent most of his "office time" (the office being a strip club) with and wound up with an incurable STD.

I hope his wife found out. I hope she took him for everything.
