Amazing for its time. Having a portable version of it was extra great

Definitely. Perhaps the only good use of those movies.

You’d be surprised. I worked for Blockbuster Video multiple times, and there was a population of customers who LOVED the ripoff versions of movies. Snakes On A Train for instance.

I asked one of these customers one time what the draw of these movies was because he knew that they weren’t the originals. He told me that they served as something he could put on in the background and not feel guilty about only half paying attention to it.

I guarantee that guy is streaming that same garbage constantly today.

I pretty much always consider games through the lens of my Steam Deck. If it’s a cross-platform game that would run well on the Deck, then I get it for the Deck.

And this is primarily because I can freely install those games to other PCs. If my Nintendo Switch were to get destroyed, then I lose my games with it (outside of emulation, of course). I don’t want games being so temporary. I still play games that are nearing 50 years old!

And it was inadequate then

And if you buy a game on PC, it doesn’t stop being playable in a generation or two like consoles.

You shouldn’t feel shame. You’re just part of the club now. It seems to me that borking your system using a terminal is just a right of passage

Let’s not absolve HR from their hand in this process. They’re the ones that setup ATSs based on keywords they don’t understand, and they’re the ones that do initial contact and interviews, in general anyway.

I’ve worked at quite a few organizations at this point in my life, and only rarely did a hiring manager get more say than a choice among the pre-selected pool that HR provided. When that wasn’t the case for me, it was because the company or organization was too small to have a full team handling HR stuff. Once it was the company’s accountant (sweet lady though).

You’re not wrong, but HR doesn’t really add much to this process when the people with the experience and understanding to choose better employees don’t get to participate until a second round.

Any guides out there on how to do this?

Isn’t it obvious which tool you use to give you a guide?

Yeah but they’re the ones hiring all the incompetent employees

Good news: I have a solution to the problem

Bad news: it’s going to require giant fans, massive controlled fires, and all of the dank bud in Canada

Take it up with the Lemmy union rep, pal

If they do, then may the old gods and the new have mercy on your hole

Soon to be shitting bricks, eh?

Agreed, except Isaac Hayes never wanted to quit. The fucking Scientologists did it “for him” while he was incapacitated in the hospital. Reportedly, Hayes loved doing the show and wouldn’t have quit on his own.

Trey and Matt have simply said that they miss their friend.

Thanks for that. I’m not a Discord user, so I hadn’t seen that. It’s not a total reversal of their previous position, but that is a little different. They didn’t say they’re definitely going to stop the open source plugin, but that is certainly not a commitment to it either.

I would say that open source means anyone is free to fork their work and continue on with it if they can’t. They’re trying to make a living like anyone else, and they’re trying to be self employed. The reality of that situation is that most of their decisions need to be through the lens of how they feed and clothe themselves.

I guess I’ll be the black sheep here.

I like Junk Store. I’ve had a better experience with the Decky Loader plugin than I have had with Heroic, namely Heroic made it difficult to login to my accounts and refused to stay logged in. I’m not criticizing Heroic, and I’m appreciative of it as an open source project. Perhaps those issues have even been resolved since I last used it. At the time though, I wanted to stop logging into my accounts each time I wanted to see my libraries, so I gave Junk Store a chance.

I still use it, and I just decided to try out this new version. I’ve been using Linux since the late 90s, and it’s been my primary OS on all my systems since 2008. I’m no longer accustomed to paying for a lot of software (games aside), but doing so will help keep the free (and open source) Decky Loader version going for everyone.

I understand not liking subscriptions, and $40 is a bit high, but keep in mind it’s optional. The plugin version remains and will remain free according to the husband and wife team behind Junk Store. They’re very easy people to talk to if you need anything at all, and they have a passion for what they’re doing. I think it’s super shitty to call them greedy because they’re offering a paid option alongside the free one.

There’s a lot of variability in materials, even before you get into the “+” or “pro” versions.

I’ve been printing Voron parts in ASA plastic for the last several weeks, and some of what I’ve used smells very strong but prints best on the cool part of the range, others smell hardly at all but print better hot. (I’m filtering fumes, worry not)

Yeah PETG does require different temperatures than PLA. Glad you got it sorted

That’s ridiculous. I’ve never had optical camouflage, advanced weaponry, and I’ve never hunted a human.
