Who is/was a great role model for your generation of boys/men? by WalkableProgrammer in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

My parents were shit but he always made sure I was taken care of. Did his best to protect me from adult issues and even though his son, my dad, has screwed home over a lot, he has never talked poorly about my dad to me. He’s just a man’s man and I try to let him know he’s the one who made me what I am today.

And Reddit is doing the same shit. Idk why they think it’s a good idea to give people monetary incentive to be batshit crazy

MW3(new) doesn’t seem as bad as people say (lemmy.world)

I’m a pc guy but came from console, so I haven’t play cod in years. I’m way more excited for CS2 but I got the new COD to play with some friends.

I know people talk about how awful it is but I’m actually enjoying the gameplay. My biggest gripe rn is the UI. I can’t figure out how anything works but sitting down and getting a kill every 2 min is classic COD and pretty fun

Will taking a job in one sector set my career path

Hey I’ve been pretty luck last week and I managed to get 2 job offers.

One is a good gig at a massive, old school financial group. I’m talking I have to wear a suit and tie. My biggest worry though is the tech is old and my coworkers and higher ups don’t seem bleeding edge so I doubt I’ll be flexing my developer muscles. Plus they have a volleyball intramural league

The other company is contracted for 6 months with a really cool tech IoT company. Job through Insight Global, Full remote, Has amazing Glassdoor reviews, cool projects, I crushed their technical interview so I feel like I can actually contribute.

I’m leaning towards the financial group because money matters and I want to feel secure.

What I’m worried about is after 2 years I’ll be 27 and I’m scared that working as a SWE for a financial group won’t look as good so I’ll never be able to work on a project that I’m passionate about again

Any advice?

This isn’t meant to be a negative post. I wanted to tweak how I handle some things and have gotten better but I it made me think.

Could you turn someone 360 completely? Like from a freak to a mighty, a chad to a chud, a person to a stealers fan?

I love my job and can’t picture myself in another career but it does suck after being told that this field was the most stable career

FPS gripe (lemmy.world)

I used to be a console gamer. Bo2 on the Xbox 360 was my favorite game of all time. I moved to csgo, once I got a pc.

My gripe with fps games on the deck is it doesn’t feel like a console fps, it feels like a pc game. I obviously understand why but I wish I could think of a way to change that. The controls just feel awful to me

Bro minecraft isn't for the young anymore. My office has a self-hosted server, lol. Not my thing, but I accept that playing minecraft makes people relaxed and happy
