Couple things

  1. Start applying for things you're not sure and you know you aren't qualified for. Often recruiters or HR people don't actually know what the fuck the job needs and just sorta copies similar job titles recs. Once you're able to talk to the actual hiring manager, then you can see if you're a good culture fit and if they can give you some on the job training.

  2. Get a job at something not really what you wanna do but feels related enough. For me, my big break into my career was working at a call center for a hospital. It was not IT related, but it got me office experience that I spun into IT experience.

My "production" home lab is 3 Optiplex 3050 with i7-7700. They work great and are pretty low power.

Its how you can tell PDP fans weren't paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn't gain any traction and he abandoned it.

Or maybe it just didn't help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.

Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn't peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.

That was among the most brain rot tier shit I've ever seen.

He's also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There's a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled "Subscribe to PewDiePie" besides being a topical meme.

Odd since it's arguably just as easy to make a new reddit account

When I stopped watching in 2018/2019 he had his collection of edgy scandals, but I mostly worry about his book club that featured Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson amongst the authors he's recommended.

I have no idea if he's stopped/apologized/started being at least progressive. But that's why I wrote him off years ago

I doubt it will be a meaningful change.

And I don't know how much I want to share a community with Pewds community. He had been pushing fascist ideas for a while. I have no clue honestly if he's gotten better, but those are my misgivings.

They didn't say they're poorly dressed. Just ugly
