When I was early in my career I was in an Engineering rotation program. At one of the locations I was at I sat right outside this older VP’s office. He would HAND WRITE drafts of emails and then have his secretary type and send them on his behalf.

He was a nice enough guy, but yea it’s no surprise to me that people from that generation cannot wrap their minds around remote work. I mean, who would type his emails if he didn’t have a secretary sitting 20 feet from his desk?

Makes sense, harder to do as you get older. If you catch it on a sale though and you’re curious I think it scratches the itch unlike D3.

Hard agree with you that D2 was better than D3 in every way. I also bought D2r and played it a bit at launch.

Have you played any D4 yet? As someone who never loved D3 I will say that D4 has been refreshing. I have some low level gripes with it, but overall I am really enjoying it.

Yea this is kinda the opposite. By the way, did that guy manage to not shit for three days?

It’s been a bad month for billionaires. Glad I’m poor.

Real cool dude /s

I don’t understand this clown’s strategy. “Let me outflank Trump on his right while simultaneously claiming he’s too far right to be electable.”

Factory jobs do pay living wages. I worked at a Fortune 500 factory in rural AL and the entry level jobs (running the street sweeper inside the factory) started at $28/hr. Operators that took OT would make over $100k/yr. The operators that worked there 20+ years made more money than I did as an engineer.

I’ve worked in factories in California, Ohio, Alabama, and my peers have worked all over (different companies). Factory jobs pay very decent and often have a hard time finding employees.

I had this problem with Cyberpunk and eventually just stopped playing. Every time I’d get a cool new weapon and want to go beat up on some street fighting scrubs only to get my ass kicked.

I prefer difficulty scaling where it’s somewhat linked to areas. Kind of like Diablo 2. So if I’m leveled up and beat Act V I can go back and tear through Andariel runs if I want, but Act V still has some challenging areas. I don’t think the entire world needs to scale as you progress.
