I just want to second saying you’d Google it in the interview if it comes up. I got my first job because of this in software engineering a long time ago.

Interviewer: “If you didn’t know how to solve a technical problem, what’s the first thing you’d do?” Me: “Well… to be honest, I’d probably Google it…” Interviewer: “Oh yeah that’s actually exactly what we want!”

It did feel stupid to say at the time but it made sense after.

Not only that, but the insistence on seeing everything as zero-sum is fucking ridiculous.

“Well we didn’t even take down a massive corporation with an install base of hundreds of millions!! Hmph. Why even bother ☹️”

How old are these people? Are they for real? Lol

“Oh come on, it’s DIFFERENT. Thank you for your money.”

I will say, as someone who used rTorrent some time ago to automate torrent downloading and whatnot, it was awesome. I’m glad to see it still going and gaining popularity.

Stable software doing its job out of the way is what I want.

I started playing Monster Hunter Rise! I’ve played Monster Hunter: World before for a bit, so I understand something of how it works.

That didn’t stop me from trying to skip ahead in quests and getting pummeled a bunch of times though. Whoops!

I’m also finally trying to get a little further in American Truck Simulator. I’ve had it for a few years and have struggled to play consistently.

Lmao you’re so fixated on sim racing, you responded to it twice in the same post!

We can say that about anything, but lots of us choose not to because it’s more fun. You should try, it’s not hard.

“A flight simulator doesn’t feel like actually flying.” “Reading a book isn’t like actually being there.”

Neat.

+1 I would love a link too! Beautiful.

Haha glad I’m not the only one.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a really clever game but I tapped out at three fingers.

A quote I think about is “a falling knife has no handle.”

I’ve never dropped a knife but I’m hoping if I do I’ll be prepared!
