FirstAidKite posted:Why are you angry at your boss? I pushed a bug fix yesterday that I worked to get out as quick as I could because this sprint is almost over and its the last of this release version, and I got it done in time to get it pushed in and tested. My boss didn't see it yesterday, (she usually leaves early to go pick up her kids) then today she was busy with meetings and didn't see it, I reminded her in case she missed the notification and she thanked me for reminding her, then she got busy with other stuff. She didn't finally look at the fix until right before she left, and then she rejected the fix without saying anything to me and left. When I noticed I had a notification that there was a message on the merge request she was already gone, and the notification was that the query was wrong; which it absolutely was not. She mis-interpreted the bug requirements because she was in a hurry and didn't bother to even ask me about it. Really frustrating because now I look bad like I'm slow and lazy, this will have to get pushed back, and its 100% not my fault. But again I'm leaving this place so whatevs, put that stuff behind me I guess. Its just real annoying because the management keeps getting promotions and raises but they're not really doing a good job of managing, meanwhile the engineers are kicking rear end and we're having to work extra hours to pick up the slack from management. Oh my god, I'm Dilbert. (Nah my boss isn't anything as bad as PHB)

FirstAidKite posted:Hi everybody I'm getting into the halloween spirit by playing resident evil 0 (a game people don't seem to like but I think it's cool) I wish I could turn back into a 11 year old when I play anything creepy because I used to get legit afraid when I played horror games (I know Resident Evil isn't really horror compared to Silent Hill/Siren etc but the classic RE games still creeped me a lot back then) There were multiple points playing through Silent Hill the first time where I had to turn off the game because I was too afraid to keep going which was just super cool because I could never get anything like that out of movies/books/etc Maybe I need to play a VR horror game or something

I'm replaying Resident Evil 2 for the season and I'm on Claire B, right before you get to the lab with Sherri. Sherry. The little girl. It is giving me all the early 2000's teenager feels all over again and I can't wait to do the same with 3.

Hello chat thread, someone tell me if there is a thread for Easy Allies anywhere around here. I've known about them since they started after Gametrailers went down but only recently started looking at their stuff, and I just realized how mindblowing it is to see game journalists that actually really like video games. Guys have so much enthusiasm for gaming, its nuts. Also my halloween game has been replaying RE4 again. Regenerators still give me the willies, I'm thankful I've forgotten what most of their attacks look like since I kill them so quickly nowadays but their raspy breathing and hosed up design is still amazingly creepy

Even lovely foreign jumpscare games where it is just a quick voice clip and a dumb model they bought from the unity store is enough to put me on edge and I just can't handle that poo poo.

That's what I did for the last year lol, but every once in awhile I put in some effort and am justly rewarded  I helped train the guy who's gonna replace me, and he's awful. He has a master's degree but not much experience, shouldn't have passed the interview but again, management is poo poo. He has no clue and has to be walked through everything, never used linux before, doesn't know how to google for solutions to problems, etc. So they can enjoy that! They gonna miss me.

precision posted:Where? In both San Diego and Bumfuck Tennessee (where my in-laws live) it takes the same amount of time as swiping, you just insert instead of swipe. Weird. The usual process for chip readers goes like: "Oh, does your chip reader work?" *insert* . . . . . "Approved!" "Okay, please sign in the box there." . . . . . . . "Um, you can remove your card now..." "Oh sorry. [joke about chip readers being slow]" The best method for both parties would be just letting the employee do the swiping/inserting but oh well Real hurthling! posted:America got chip readers rolled out finally in like may and they take up to like 30 seconds to get authorization. We wont have contactless for years The chip readers at my job actually are compatible with stuff like Apple Pay, it's just that very few people actively use those methods and most of my coworkers don't know they work

If you get the 15-day trial of PS+, can you then apply a three-month card at the end of that period? Thinking of doing that before the end of the month to maximize my free games.

Greetings, gamers. I accidentally purchased some overproof rum instead of the regular kind. I haven't had it in about half a decade, and when I sipped some, it produced an unpleasant sensation on the fillings in my teeth. I don't know if this rum is just crappy or if I have gotten too old for things that are 75.5 percent alcohol by volume. If this were FO4, I bet I could use it as an effective weapon, but as it is, I will have to have a bunch of guests over and convince them to drink it, I guess.

I have had some issues with drinking in my time but one thing that I would never, ever do is drive under the influence, and I've lost a lot of respect for friends who were social drinkers that had this weird "I'm fine, I can drive after four beers, I paced myself" thing going on. I think it's less a problem with alcohol or addiction and more a problem that driving a car is easily the most dangerous thing most people regularly do, and they just don't have any respect for that fact.

my brothers and i used to do a monthly event we called Drinking and Driving, but it was just the three of us getting together in one place, drinking a lot of whiskey, and catching up while we traded the controller and played GTA, then we would take the train home.

I've never been drunk enough to make spelling mistakes, hell I don't even spell things wrong when I try to type on LSD. I've always thought that people who type posts with lots of spelling mistakes and say they're drunk are teenagers trying to sound drunk, not actual drunks.

The new DBZ game came out today and it looks loving boss. Unfortunately I'm not in the financial situation I was when the first one came out so I can't blow $60 on it (especially with Dishonored 2 around the corner) but goddamn I want some gokus in my life.

I know it honestly probably doesn't make it better but the current launch version doesn't really contain too much content over the first one. You're better off waiting down the line for when you can get the game + the inevitable DBSuper DLC Season Pass stuff for cheaper so you'll get the best of all worlds. Most of the new stuff right now is balance changes and improvements to the general interface more than new stuff.

This is basically the thing I'm so fuckin pissed about. Destroying your own life with alcohol is one thing. I've spent plenty of time doing it. But the second you get behind the wheel you're now threatening to destroy someone else life. As in kill them. And destroy the lives of everyone around them. At least no one was hurt this time. That's something to be thankful for. I'm not going to let myself be any more mad about it.

Yeah, like my train station has garage and I am daily shocked the number of people checking their phones as they leave the garage, which has so much foot traffic there is almost bound to be someone crossing (and it doesn't have a light). It's also very close to a bike trail. It doesn't matter that driving out of the station is a thing they've got to do every day. They should be checking their phones and loving with their radio before they start to drive, or at the very least look down before they're coming to an area where they are more or less 100 percent guaranteed to be in contact with both pedestrians and cyclists.
