Of course it is, I knew I couldn’t find the right word but as I’m getting older I don’t have the patience to try and find the right one.

Does clinically work just as well though?

I think they mean not clinically online.

Can confirm. Have ADHD and eat like this. Less eating when in meds though.

I feel lucky to be in the position I am, especially given my sketchy past and shaky start to life and I can’t stress that enough to others who may see this.

What about yourself, what do you do? And do you enjoy it?

Edit: Just realised you’re OP and you’ve described your work in the post.

Thanks. They really are.

I’m a software developer with 4 others and two owners who also code most of the time.

We are consultants so we get approached my clients exclusively via word of mouth. They treat the clients just as fair as they treat us so we get lots of repeat work and recommendations. Quite a large local authority too which is nice.

We can be making a whole host of different applications which I don’t want to disclose here in case that isn’t something I am allowed to discuss. Basically though if you could think of a system for a business then we could make it.

Not that I am the smartest person but one of the owners is the smartest person I’ve ever met and I don’t believe there is anything they couldn’t build.

Ah my bad.

Isn’t the “rep” here for representative as she is a democrat?

Question kinda related to this post.

I’m looking to get back into piracy and have been saving to build a server to handle it. I’m now hearing about these seed boxes in the cloud.

So my question is this a viable option until I build a server. Like I can set up torrents and maybe Radarr, etc. then just use my home pc for Jellyfin and connect it to the seed box? Or is the seed box mainly used to do the torrenting before you STFP the files to your actual server?

I enjoyed it.

It’s odd that you would call anything subjective overrated.

Cocaine it is then.

It’s a long story so I will try and bullet point it as I don’t have a lot of time to answer.

• Mid to late thirties and I’m thinking I’m a failure at life. Think I have ADHD but never diagnosed. Had 50+ jobs to this point and I always quit or lose them for poor attendance etc, mix in a little fraud to supplement wages.
• Apply to an insurance company and begin training. Someone I had screwed over (I am a better person now) reported me to management and they fired me.
• decided to apply to Apple as a Christmas temp and get hired for 3 months.
• excel at being faux extrovert and apply for Genius Bar as a Technical Specialist. Get hired.
• Begin work at the Genius Bar where I thrive cause being a fake extrovert actually makes you happier at times, but you leave work drained.
• Realise we have healthcare and seek an ADHD diagnosis, which I got.
• surrounded by talented people and infinite support from management I decide to do a software development bootcamp.
• excel at coding as I had always been interested and I am even at a higher level than the teacher and they’re blown away by my projects.
• suck at interviews and so do another bootcamp, 😔, as this one also get you interviews.
• excel at this bootcamp too and still suck at interviews.
• must have gone for 30 jobs and didn’t get any.
• start to feel down but finally get hired to a small company.
• life really isn’t any greener over here and I still struggle to maintain happiness.
• company I work for is excellent. All about work life balance and the work is secondary to us.
• been 18 months. Got a pay rise after 1 year. Then 6 months later we all get a pay rise again and a reduction in hours.
• we only work 33 hours a week now with 21 days holiday which goes up one day each year until you’re at 25 days.
• don’t have to lie about why I am sick. If not having a good mental health day then I tell them and I am not expected to work.

Fair enough.

We gatekeeping now?

I already don’t use Amazon and I think I might actually have them at a net loss as I used to say things didn’t arrive back when they would do anything to make you happy.

Upvoted because everybody should stop using Amazon.

I wouldn’t want to generalise everybody but I honestly can’t comprehend how anybody would want to act like that.

Like my views are based on what I believe is right and what a society should be based on my morals and not just the opposite of some other people. I find it odd.

I don’t even know if I believe conservatives to be bad people and more I assume they’ve been lied to and it’s hard to get them to see the truth.

Just curious as to why you would want to shop there now because of this boycott? Not judging just curious.

Like it seems you didn’t shop there but now it’s contrarian to do you want to.

I can’t relate to this at all.

We use windows machines as software developers at work and really have no issues at all. Never had a bluescreen in these two years.

I use windows at home to play Factorio, Minecraft, and RDR2. Again, never had an issue. No blue screens. I turn it on open steam and play my games then turn it off when done.

I tried Linux again cause I got sucked in by this echo chamber and that did not go well at all. I explicitly said I don’t want to have to be a nerd in my free time to manage Linux which I was assured isn’t the case. Then one day I turn it on and have no sound and no idea why it just died. I swiftly removed Linux and went back to windows.

I do use Linux for servers for Jellyfin and stuff and I like it for those things, but me personally have had a better experience using windows and I can’t understand all these people against it.

But they said they wanted to watch it in the cinema. Confused by this reply.

You want to free the dude that just killed 29 of their colleagues, who also made other inmates fight?

Also happened to Range Rovers once people realised they were insanely easy to steal.

It got so bad that people that owned them on finance could no longer get insurance. This made a tonne of them hit the second hand market making them cheaper. Meaning people with finance couldn’t even sell the car for the money they owed on the finance.

Range Rover started offering their own insurance and I did a quote for fun and they just said nah fam.
