Personally I would want to know what kind of games. There’s a wide range. Monopoly? Catan? A six hour indie extravaganza? Same with cards and video games. Like I would go to a sekiro tournament but avoid a CoD thing.

I dislike AI. It’s like the one ring. Stop trying to use it. But all these people think they’re stronger than Boromir.

Technology@beehaw.org•DoorDash Spent $1.4 Million Trying to Stop Mamdani From Becoming Mayor. Now We Know Why.
60·9 days agoHaha get fucked DoorDash. I’ll pick up my own food before using them.
Now that song by the clash is in my head again
I’m all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

Gaming@lemmy.ml•This is basically me whenever people ask if I play videogames
731·25 days agoI’ve had several girlfriends who were like “you play video games? Like… <worried expression> call of duty?”
They were all relieved when I was like no.
Less relieved when I got them to play cuphead co-op.
I will continue to not buy EA products. Fuck 'em
Fuck. Fuck all this AI slop.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Has anyone tried Amber for writing bash scripts? Would you recommend it?
3·2 months agoInteresting. I dislike writing bash scripts so this might appeal to me, but probably not before a stable 1.x release.

Technology@beehaw.org•Ghosted After a Job Interview? Report the Company
51·2 months agoI guess? But imagine if enough people took a couple minutes to post about how organization XYZ sucks, and (because the stock markets are irrational vibes based) that caused their stocks to drop a few points. That’s the only thing they care about. I’m willing to put in a few minutes if it might emotionally harm an asshole.

My hypothetical is a lot of recruiters are kind of bad at their job, but there’s so many desperate candidates that they don’t need to do much to get passable results.

Technology@beehaw.org•Ghosted After a Job Interview? Report the Company
25·2 months agoA hiring manager told me when she fills a position, it automatically sends the email to the other candidates. It’s not a human touch.
I leave my PR in draft until the checks pass. I don’t want anyone reviewing it when it’s broken.

Technology@lemmy.ml•China Just Dropped Another Bomb on America's Frontier AI Companies
2·3 months agoImagine a context where the reader is looking at the news for the first time that day. They think they missed news in the morning, perhaps the US starting aggressions, and now China has dropped another bomb.
I’m sure you can imagine such a scenario

Technology@lemmy.ml•China Just Dropped Another Bomb on America's Frontier AI Companies
27·3 months agoBecause I thought China had literally bombed the US for a very tense moment before I finished reading the headline. Especially because of how the words wrapped. I didn’t need that stress.

94·3 months agoCan we please not write headlines like that when we’re on the verge of ww3 and literal bombs might be dropped on the US in the coming months?

1·3 months agoBut on the flipside, it’s hard for me to stay concentrated while at home.
While I believe that is true for you, I don’t believe it justifies the lost time, health, and environmental damage of mandating in-office for everyone.
The office is super distracting for many people.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Behold the future of programming
6·3 months agoOh, I read your thing backwards then.
I can’t imagine wanting to go into the office on the regular. The commute. The lost time (can math out to like a 20% pay cut, if you spend two hours a day traveling + getting ready). The sickness. The lack of control over environment (temperature, sound).
Can’t relate to it. And I’m a very social person that likes interacting with people.


Agree with the other poster - too open is a net negative. There’s like 3 games I don’t want to play for 1 game I do.
There’s an RPG meetup I go to sometimes. They list some games on their blurbs so people know it’s not just a DND hangout.
