We’re now finding out the damaging results of the mandated return to the office–and it’s worse than we thought

Jump

  • Not OP, but yes and no. I work as customer service/tech support. We get abused by customers harshly every day. Work from home, for me, was great at first, but the isolation combined with the daily abuse or other trauma (worked in telephone porting for a while, and old people who can't keep their phone numbers or have to be with no phone service for a while get legit traumatized, and I felt I was causing it) caused me to become depressed, overeat, develop a heavy alcohol habit, and basically not move around much. I gained 100 pounds from 2019-2022. I am still struggling to lose it.

    RTO for me was not a thing I wanted to do, but I needed to.

    Also, I am thankfully no longer answering phone calls anymore, just taking chats. People are still assholes, but they cannot yell at you or use their voice to emotionally manipulate you.

    • It's so nice to see them all growing, but this is just the truth, sorry.

  • Connect is not broken that I've noticed after the first week or so.

  • I'd generally agree, but it also feels like that user base would troll their way to this result eventually. I'd still say let them dig the hole first.

  • I can usually tell how mentally ill someone is by how often they use the word "woke" lol

  • Does kernel anti cheat really help anything, though? I'm curious about it. Like, how much worse would cheating be without it? I play Apex on Linux. It runs EAC and yes, there are some cheaters but it's not that bad from what I can tell.

  • Yes! Not only do I have a Deck, but I've switched my main PC to Linux. Sick of Micro$oft's shit!

  • First Light is awesome front to back. Second Son drags slightly but has great characters.

  • Still deep in Tears of the Kingdom, but I am close to 100% of shrines and light roots. Have not even tried fighting Ganon yet, but with my power level it shouldn't be that tough. Gonna finish it this week and then hop back to Final Fantasy 16, which I binge played release weekend and got over 50% through according to the PS5 progress indicator.

  • What an amazing game it is!! It's a shame we don't have remakes of 1&2 on modern console or PC yet.

  • Forza Horizon is just a sheer joy to play. 4 or 5, you can't go wrong. I'm not that into car games, but I have sunk hundreds of hours into both.
