Did I ever tell you guys about that time I got a whole monitor for 1 Zar?
Probably but I shall again.
"twas the same auction at work where I got the R100 laptop. There was an LG Flatron W2243S listed with no reserve price. It had description "Faint line down middle of screen"
Figured what the hell, bid R1, mostly to see kif anyone else would. I won it. Literally just swapped out the vga cable and did a factory reset. All happy now. Only downside is that it's vga only but hey, what else are you gonna do with R1?5 -
Bitcoin ain't going to change shit. Speculate while it last. The development stalled since they start pushing that LN crap.14

Windows keeps changing my desktop icon positions, seemingly randomly.
Sometimes only one icon will be somewhere else, sometimes all icons are scattered all over the place and other times desktop cannot display newly created files anymore without me having to manually click refresh (F5). Yes, I have to manually refresh the ActiveDesktop (!!!).
This has pretty much been going on since Windows 98 for me, with it getting much worse over the years.
Probably due to the use of different-resolution monitors and different DPI scalings, aswell as sometimes turning a monitor on and off.

There's a senior dev at work who deflects and delays every project while working on his own freelance jobs most of the day. Fortunately, my performance is not tied to his.

Been looking into 2D maps for a game. I am learning how to use tools that do autotiling. I want to have generated worlds for terrain. It is interesting how the scope of what you are learning starts expanding rapidly and can overwhelm you. I started wanting to learn autotiling. This went from that to autogen, to modifying terrain, to how to store generated terrain, to how to store difference between autogen and player modified, to how to separate things into chunks, to how to store a whole world worth of data! Like dude, chill. Just learn how to use autotiling first. Then learn how autogen, then learn how to efficiently chunk things,. Also the 2d data won't be big so just store the data you genned so if modified. The worlds don't have to be ultra huge. Really stop freaking out what it could be and see what it is. JUST FUCKING ITERATE!
It is wild to watch yourself get featuritus without learning how to crawl fist. Just divide and conquer.29 -

My confession is that I love doing OPS where I can fix an issue I caused myself and people are actually grateful for just having it working.
All other cases not so much.... But please team don't identify me and put me on support 24/7 :'( -
When somebody says they are going to call me, I always fear this will destroy my flow and focus for the rest of the day.5

80% of people who comment online are small people. 100% of small people who read the previous sentence thought they belonged to the remaining 20%.
It's not who likes you, it's who hates you. If small people like me, I should be worried. If small people hate me, that means I'm not one of them, and I'm doing good.
The above is true for every online community at any moment in time.8 -
I currently have a design meeting with the CEO. He joined the meeting on his iPhone mini and the designs are for a desktop app.
What a joke5
