Yeah, I got laid off twice more before switching careers. Both times they wanted me to come back and fix stuff after letting me go.

It goes hand in hand with the "if someone works hard, they should be given more work as a reward" line of thinking.

My first salaried job was also my first proper IT job and I was a "junior technician" ... the only other member of IT staff was my supervisor who had been a secretary that got a 1 week sysadmin course and knew very little.

The server room was a complete rat's nest and I resolved to sort it out. It was all going very well until I tripped over the loose SCSI 3 cable between the AIX server and it's raid array. While it was in use.

It took me 2 days to restore everything from tape. My supervisor was completely useless.

A few months later I was "made redundant", leaving behind me everything working perfectly and a super tidy server room. I got calls from the company asking for help for the following 6 months, which I politely declined.

You didn't mention, but they have a good line in scapegoating LGBT people too. They follow Russia as close as possible on that front.

Hey, my wife and her sister moved away about 12 years ago ... it was absolutely the right thing for both of them.

Anyone even halfway intelligent is better off moving away from Hungary. I feel sorry for those who can't speak a foreign language and thus are stuck there.

I loved the original, when I had only seen the TV cut which doesn't include the protagonist committing rape. I've seen the full version all of once and that just broke it for me.

I have the sequel on my to-watch list, but will be starting it off in a guarded manner.

How do you feel about Tenet?

Also, Awareness. That was a garbage fire ... how someone got millions to make what amounts to a 12 year old boy's power fantasy is beyond my comprehension.

Yeah, my local Caprabo (a modestly priced supermarket) used to have a whole aisle dedicated to olives and olive related stuff ... now the locals are getting priced out of it and the aisle is just a little section

Very much on-brand that while the federation have lots of fancy comfy chairs, Quark just went to Ikea

If you say so, I watched an early trailer for Death Stranding and haven't paid it any attention since I'm not keen on games with combat.

AER: Memories of old

It's fun, you play as a woman who can turn into a bird and have to explore, solve basic puzzles, and there's a good story. It's just short and simple.
