Gods I FEEL you! Same, same and same. I can’t afford to do this either, but did it for my sanity.
Tried more for my physical health, marching and kayaking for miles around the woods and swamps. Just couldn’t get the human connection.
I’m hired and I SANG today while canoeing! We shall see.
Anyone notice Trump clearly didn’t write that, because it’s clearly written? Remember how bugfuck he was getting over the last year and how we rarely see that anymore?
Just how bugfuck is he now and who’s controlling him?
I’m a total loser, redefining my life to do what I want, taking a scary risk for a massive pay cut. Shoot me now.
Stick with IT! There’s nothing inherently bad about the space, lots of room to move around and do different things, make solid money. 20-years of anything will burn you out unless you’re not very bright.
Made me look too! Holy shit those are loaded questions.
Yeah, but you got held back 4 times.
All true! And they cast older guys to give the character gravitas.
I feel ya! But… everything else you said, yeah. If I were given one, I’d drive it around for a couple of months and sell it.
People used to think the notion of rocks falling out of a clear blue sky was bullshit. And here we are.
If you enjoy tech, keep going for it. There’s nothing inherently shitty about the work, at any level, and it pays. As with any career, we sometimes burn out.
Finally, someone watched the video, life changing. Yeah, I had none of that and I want it back.
You have no idea how much more sane that made me feel.
While true, I’m over 50 and have never seen such mechanized destruction in my lifetime. And yes, now I’m woke to the fact that my country has supported this shit the whole time.
Interesting thought experiment!
Even a monster motor mounted to bedrock isn’t going to produce the force of tectonic plates. Think of the masses involved.
LOL, just commented it was 10G out of Rod Stewart in my childhood.
70s elementary school: Rod Stewart having 10 gallons of sperm pumped out of his stomach.
For the heat and electricity, it’s stunning how much compute I get from my somewhat modern gear vs. my 40U rack of 10-years ago.
Had a woman I met at a bar asked me what I would do if she ripped one. Paraphrasing, it’s been 20-years, “Laugh my ass off if you straight owned it!”
She also asked my opinion on abortion. Paused a moment, and paraphrasing again, “Not my business. I’m a man.” “RIGHT ANSWER!”
She was fun to date a few times, but kids, nurses can be very strange!
