@swapnakpanda No, this is called a “union” as they tried to get out of paying the bonuses and the union strikes forced them to. Get your reporting accurate if you’re going to engagement farm.
@brockpierson Yep. Trying to help create an Eve server Emulator. Game needs to have private servers. It’s the only way to preserve specific versions of the game.
Back in the early 90s, before the Internet, we had "Defrag and Chill". You'd start Disk Defragmenter on your 540MB hard drive, dim the lights, crack open a Surge, and just vibe while the little blue bars crawled across the screen like they were solving world peace. Forty-five minutes of pure, unfiltered anticipation. No notifications. No algorithms. Just the two of you, the gentle grinding of the hard drive, and the sacred promise that your Solitaire games were about to feel 3% snappier.
This is MS_DOS 6.22, which I worked on, but I honestly have no idea who wrote defrag. Iconic utility though!
I was laid off a couple weeks ago.. 25 Years of experience as a software/game/fintech engineer.
Replaced by a guy in product with 0 experience, but he has a claude subscription at 1/8th the cost(true story).
I received 6 months severance at least, and I'm the happiest I've been in a long time.
I'm using this runway to go all in on myself and #indiegames. I'm done building others dreams only to watch them run away with my work to find success.
If you want to follow my journey over the coming months as I put all of my experience to work building a Final Fantasy XI inspired MMORPG solo, follow and come along! It would mean the world to me!
Dear Microsoft, when I hit the Windows Start menu key and start typing a word to autocomplete a search, I never, ever, EVER want it to return results of something not on my computer. Ever. Like, ever, ever, never.
