Topic | Does anyone else get a sketchy tab on Firefox once in awhile? |
BlazinBlue88 12/04/18 8:01:06 PM #6 | rattlesnake30 posted... BlazinBlue88 posted...Never and I use Firefox on both my work and home computers. You're either going to sketchy sites or already infected. Norton has been awful for a long time and Malware Bytes doesn't scan for a lot of things including viruses. It's good at what it does, it just doesn't look for everything like some people think. --- |

Topic | about to start entire KH series critical run |
BlazinBlue88 12/03/18 1:01:16 PM #21 | SSJKirby posted... none of the games are hard on the hardest difficulty to be honest, if you can beat one you can beat them all I've always played them on Normal. First time playing anything harder was BBS. I was just surprised at how enjoyable Critical mode considering I'm not a hard mode person. --- |

Topic | Where the hell are all the Viking fans? (TV show spoilers) |
BlazinBlue88 12/02/18 5:24:50 AM #8 | Dash_Harber posted... Honestly, it pisses me off. I love the historical period and Ragnar Lodbrok is one of my favorite semi-historical characters, but Travis Fimmel is awful and all the dialogue is so fucking modernized it's weird. It also falls into the same soap opera cliches continually. Well good thing The Last Kingdom is so underrated. I hear less about that than I do Vikings. The newest season imo is the best one yet. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/28/18 2:25:30 PM #36 | MrDrMan posted... BlazinBlue88 posted...This is a silly topic and you should feel bad. Yeah. I will agree that some of the features are very convenient. Other than that, the sound quality is very subpar, they leak nearly all of the sound, and while they have yet to fall out of my ear they constantly feel like they will. Thank god I got them for free. --- |

Topic | Look at all the wrestlers you could book! |
BlazinBlue88 11/27/18 8:11:13 PM #7 | Lot of well known names on that page. Can't imagine the range of prices. Doesn't Michael Buffer still get millions of dollars to say his catch phrase when introing a boxing match? --- |
Topic | Are you over 25? 1 piece of advice you would you give your 18yearold self? |
BlazinBlue88 11/27/18 11:05:09 AM #26 | Guide posted... Fix your posture This would be a big one for me. Didn't realize how bad my posture was until my back started hurting all the time in my late 20s. Also probably help steer my career a little better. Give myself a list of technologies to learn about and inform my younger self of how the IT industry works. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/23/18 2:44:26 PM #13 | vocedelmorte posted... ViewtifulGrave posted...Why doesnt anyone ever talk about Red Dead Revolver? Lies. It was on the level of other games of it's time. Fun multiplayer as well. --- |

Topic | In the market for noise cancelling headphones. Bose Vs. Sony |
BlazinBlue88 11/23/18 7:46:47 AM #13 | Why are you considering the XM2 and not the XM3? Lot of worth while improvements in the XM3 and they are normally the same price as the QC 35ii. XM2 vs QC 35 = easily the QC 35 XM3 vs QC 35 = could go either way depending on what you're looking for. --- |
Topic | Teenage Gamer is Disconnecting People From PSN If You "Disrespect" him |
BlazinBlue88 11/21/18 10:47:43 AM #15 | How is this news despite it being a very common thing? My cousin used to do this with people when Halo 2 was a thing. You just flood a person's IP address with traffic until it shuts down. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/20/18 5:35:44 PM #6 | spanky1 posted... AlephZero posted...I probably do about that, I drink a lot of water. I drink that amount of water and I get it either from the filter from my fridge or the ice machine at work. --- |

Topic | How do people work full time being a slave at work? |
BlazinBlue88 11/19/18 2:55:30 PM #140 | Zanzenburger posted... I'm not quite at your level yet, but yeah, since my recent promotion my job is much more tolerable. I'm in and out a lot and pretty much set my own office hours. I supervise two people who hold the same type of job I held just a year ago and I can definitely see the difference in flexibility. The flexible work hours at this job has eliminated my feelings of burn out that I would normally get every 6 months or so. It's cool you get to manage people. I wish I could do that for the experience. Though I think I've decided against getting into management in the future and stick to some hyper technical position that allows me to work from home full time. --- |
Topic | Do you work in an open office space? Do you think it helps or hinders work? |
BlazinBlue88 11/19/18 2:41:54 PM #20 | CableZL posted... Zanzenburger posted...CableZL posted...I work in a relatively open office. There are walls here and there, but typically each department sits in desks that aren't walled off from each other. Same. One time the intercoms with the white noise went down and it felt uncomfortably quiet in the office. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/19/18 12:56:18 PM #9 | Romulox28 posted... i was having this convo with a consultant recently, he said that a lot of companies he worked for have the open layout and what ends up happening is that everyone puts on headphones so they can have some sort of isolation/privacy and people end up IMing each other instead of interacting face to face This is exactly what happens. lol --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/19/18 12:55:01 PM #86 | Zanzenburger posted... InYourWalls1 posted...clearaflagrantj posted...The real world is absolutely miserable, it's where passion goes to die. Basically what I wanted to say to @clearaflagrantj Entry and mid level positions are often dull and repetitive. Gotta keep learning, job hopping, and climbing upward. I'm in my 9th year of IT and I'm finally starting to see the light at the end of the awful job tunnel. Current job gives me 25% of the workload my previous jobs have given me, pays me 30% more, and lets me come and go from the office as I please. Work is much less soul crushing when you know you're not forced to be at your desk for a set amount of time. --- |

Topic | Do you work in an open office space? Do you think it helps or hinders work? |
BlazinBlue88 11/19/18 12:07:09 PM #2 | It's more common in the IT/engineering world. My current office has some open office aspects to it. Our building is basically one big room. Our engineers have long tables where they sit side by side, some of us have big open cubicles, there are a few offices and conference rooms peppered along the walls. I think fully open office layouts are horrible but integrating some ideas into the standard workspace to create a hybrid situation is a wonderful idea. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/15/18 3:17:11 PM #8 | I've never heard that cilantro tastes like soap. I love chopping up some fresh cilantro and sprinkling it on dishes. --- |
Topic | whatever happened to that amazon thing where you let the dude in your house? |
BlazinBlue88 11/15/18 2:46:05 PM #4 | It's still a thing. General consensus has been positive for the ones that forked over the money to install it. --- |

Topic | Vigilante 8 or Twisted Metal |
BlazinBlue88 11/14/18 2:50:34 PM #17 | ultimate reaver posted... Comparing the games from the time, I think Vigilante 8: 2nd offense is probably better than any of the first four TM games. Twisted Metal Black is the best out of both series though. I'd agree with this. --- |
Topic | What do you miss about the 90s? |
BlazinBlue88 11/14/18 2:18:55 PM #44 | CableZL posted... African booty scratcher being the worst imaginable insult Then you'd spice it up by changing the nation. Egyptian, American, Canadian, etc How did this start? Everyone knew about it. --- |
Topic | Tony hawks underground, aggressive inline, and Dave Mirra 2 were the best extrem |
BlazinBlue88 11/14/18 7:31:43 AM #11 | DoubleDare posted... Aggressive Inline was awesome, was my 1st extreme sports game, still pop it in. Yup it did a lot of things first that Tony Hawk and other games would later borrow from it. - In order to increase your stats, you'd have to practice your skills. Rather than collecting stat icons throughout the level like you would in Tony Hawk, you'd have to grind in order to collect XP for your grind Stat. - Completing goals would change the layout of the stage. - No timer to stress about. Just chill out and skate. Game is really underrated. Similar to Dave Mirra 2, it did suffer from later goals being extremely difficult. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/13/18 12:02:09 PM #5 | P4wn4g3 posted... No reason to keep measly amounts of money in several 401ks over the course of my life imo You can roll over 401ks into other 401ks with no penalty. --- |

BlazinBlue88 11/13/18 7:29:27 AM #10 | ohnoitschris posted... BlazinBlue88 posted...Honestly it's the email account. Had a neighbor that was paying for two internet services because he didn't want to lose his original email account. Not disagreeing with you. Just saying how a lot of old people are in general. Same with how most of them nowadays have a yahoo email address and won't move away from it despite yahoo being hacked a few times. --- |
