Exactly the same here too. As a teenager we also all pitched in on a CD burner when they first came out and kept it at the BBS's owners place, I just remember a single CD took forever back then when it was 1x and 2x recording speed. That allowed us to share a ton more without everyone having to get together on the LAN.

Are you sure you aren't just seeing the cache? Try cleaning cache, I'm not sure if a close of the app and reload is enough

Ah thats right they just sold the game not the studio

Yeah I was an early adopter myself, it was my gateway drug into rimworld and dwarf fortress. I stopped playing shortly after they sold the studio

Barrier to entry, with tech still being male dominated

I got my first job with AIX in the early 2000's after the previous admin did a reinstall of the OS vs an upgrade on prod, with unverified backups. It was a resume generating event.

They lost over 3 months of data and barely survived it.

I actually have a death date. It helps a lot with being able to plan my life and live in a way where I'll be happy with my life if I were to die tommorow.

If I reach that date then great, anything after I just consider a bonus lol

Or the all you can hug buffet

Not OP, but It doesn't matter to me what they are. It can be a call to discuss weekend plans, it can be an errand I have to run, it can even be an agreement with an friend to play a multiplayer game at X time. Something like a dentist appointment is the worst though.

I'm neurodivergent and not sure how much that matters to the phenomenon

Those are $100 bills

Especially if its a system that you have told management needs to be replaced but they aren't interested in spending the money..

I had the same problem too, I ended up buying a USB Bluetooth transmitter. I figured the board was bad until I replaced it and had the same problem with the new one

Can I interest you in some steamed hams?

It's a common saying, at least in north america. I didn't even think about it reading it, but when you brought it up it does really sound like a typo haha

Thats really interesting. I wonder how much the culture and expectations of norms in corporations makes a difference with this.

Have you worked in several all female crews as well? Its hard to judge when you don't have a baseline to consider.

This is spot on from my experience as well, you can even see this dynamic play out within individual departments in the same company.

I hear you on the cold part. So many tripped breakers from space heaters.. and that one time, a very angry UPS that got plugged into.

Yeah it happens because you are getting proper REM sleep and I know exactly what you mean about the intensity.

The same that they are not nightmares but are just intense to the point of exhausting some nights. Its like having to live two lives... I just want to sleep haha.
