    Destiny 2

    You get loot at the current level and just not exotic quests afaik. Also I didn't say you had to play before the new xpac lol. You just never need to buy Forsaken.
  2. Yup. On the Watchlist. Disney+ is going to be fucking crazy.

    The Mandalorian (Disney+) (2019)

    Jesus what is the budget on this? There's a hell of a lot going on there. Also why is the video quality so terrible on that trailer? Anyway...seriously, I'm VERY interested in this.

    Destiny 2

    Bro. We've been through this. You just don't get the story. Are you going to replay the story for Forsaken? No. No one is going to do that.

    What Amused You On The Net Today?

    I don't remember ever seeing this. I wish they'd put our a series animated like this instead of...the...THING we have now.

    Marvel General

    I am super pumped for the Moon Knight one. Let's fucking DO this. She-Hulk and Ms Marvel are cool too. I'll watch them but Marvel's Crazy Batman is the most exciting of the 3.

    Free to be unemployed? They could have been looking for jobs before and they were still at GameStop so.... You know.

    I made sure to turn off my adblocker so maybe that played some part. That or they fixed it since then.

    Feel bad for the employees. Maybe Gamestop will try to stop being so awful and entice people to shop there again.

    Why Aren't You Posting?

    NOT THE SAME. Forums are better for having several different ongoing conversations (even of the same general topics like "video games") whereas a chat kind of get monopolized.

    Your company has rules about wearing headphones? The fuck kind of fascists do you work for?

    What'd You Eat Today?

    Last night had some awesome Jambalaya and I have no idea what these appetizers were...some kind of savory um...beignets? I dunno. Shit was all good as fuck though. Also I just realized I left the jambalaya in the hotel fridge.

    Destiny 2

    You don't have to do that. I didn't have to do that. Not sure what happened to you there. I got my Steam account linked up and started the transfer process but felt kinda sad about my PS4 characters being gone (apparently they stay there in the background). I wish I could just mix them together. Give me the history from console and keep all my levels and equipment on the thing. Anyway I did it though. Don't own Forsaken on PS4 though.

    The Matrix 4

    The ending was that Neo was Jesus and that was pretty much it. Curious to see where they go from there. Would be really fucking funny if they went one level up again.

    The Matrix 4

    Is that David Mitchell as in... I'm like mildly interested just because I like the Matrix movies but man, I don't know. Keanu probably has some good pull now so I feel like he wouldn't sign onto this if it was shit when he has a nice tidy payday rolling for John Wick. Who knows though. Time will tell.

    Marvel General

    Interesting video. It could turn out okay (get the people that did Spider-Verse and move away from him being so dependent on MCU people) but who knows. After the ASM movies, I don't trust them for shit but Spider-Verse WAS fucking amazing so maybe it's possible. They can use Venom as their vehicle for their shared universe shit and fuck that up while making Spider-Man actually good.

    You can't just wear your headphones while your boss is there? I mean, you're just cleaning and shit. Why would your boss even care? Hell I wear my headphones at work sometimes and I work at a desk. Lol.

    Work History

    UPS Was a loader. In other words I loaded the trailers. I know exactly why everyone's shit is broken half the time. I was pretty reasonable with stuff but a lot of people were total assholes with packages. Was good at it and it kept me in shape. I liked the job for the most part (working in a trailer in the middle of the day during summer DID suck though). I left here because I got a job at my current company for 2 bucks an hour more. Bank/Payment Company So I've done several jobs here and I'll just go through them real quick... First level help desk: Supported payment machines. It got to be so easy it was fucking boring very quickly. About a year in I applied for 2nd level and didn't get it. Told myself if I didn't get the next 2nd level spot to come open I'd find another job. Thank fuck I got it. Second Level help desk: Supported the level 1 HD and their lazy dumbness. At first ALL I did was take calls from them but over time I started getting projects, doing our internal website, then our group sharepoint, etc. Was a really fun job and I loved it and was really good at it. Near the end they pissed me off when they changed how they graded my calls and the spot I applied for offered me a 10% raise so I peaced out. Glad I did because things got kind of shitty not soon thereafter (especially since everyone left). Also they let @Downshift take that job so you know. Knowledge: Helped write and maintain all the howtos for troubleshooting for the helpdesk. Also managed their internal sites (a bigger version of what I did in 2nd level). It was fun at first but eventually it became incredibly fucking boring. Manager was very resistant to change and I usually had to just make shit and show it to him done before he'd let me do or change anything (which he was receptive to vs others so I guess there was that). Job wasn't horrible but it was definitely boring and then a spot came open in IT... IT/Desktop: Loved this job. I guess I have liked most of my jobs really but IT was the big time for me and it was pretty great. I got a lot more experience troubleshooting computer shit, learning how things work in our environment, and I even got to learn all the new shit when we switched over to it (as our parent company took over) before I got the job I have now. I definitely liked this job but management is what killed it. My boss ended up being shuffled to just being a team lead or something in Tampa and then the new boss we got was annoying as fuck. THEN they started doing lay offs in IT (while hiring in another country...not India surprisingly). So I had to gtfo and my old boss alerted me to this job that I have now. Technical Implementations: It's complicated to describe but basically I help people integrate their applications with our payment systems (there are many different APIs for doing so). I answer their questions, help them when they have issues, and then we run through checks to make sure their application works properly before we certify it to work in production. What I love the most about this job is the incredible amount of flexibility. I can basically set my own schedule and I am given some pretty wide latitude to work from home (even more than others...mostly because my house is really far from our new office and I have constantly expressed my desire to work from home as much as possible ). The job has a lot of varied things going on and it is actually challenging to learn all this crazy shit we deal with. Before IT, I'd really only seen a small portion of what our company did for payments stuff and this job opened up this huge world where I'm learning a ton of shit (and web based stuff that I know I can share with the team since you know...I do that kinda of shit on the side OBVIOUSLY).

    Huh...didn't know any of that. We don't actually talk that much about our personal histories with each other.

    Yeah they're responsible for a lot of Sony's biggest hits so I wouldn't be surprised to hear most people thought that. I found out there were NOT a Sony studio when they put out Sunset Overdrive.

    Movie/TV Show Backlog

    The show is so fucking up and down I'm not sure it is even worth it. The last season I watched was after a big character was introduced and the entire season was just fucking boring. Like they built this thing up so much and NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENED. That season basically could have just not happened. I think that was Season 7? I dunno. Show was all over the place. Maybe it would be better marathoning it and not having to wait fucking years for shit to happen.

    Now please make another Resistance game. This is good though. They really only ever made Sony games anyway.
