It's unfathomable to me how someone could spend that kinda money without talking to an expert or a government surveyor or something!

I spent a month considering if I should get a $500 GPU and I still fucked that up as it isn't even working on my Linux server yet.

Couple things

  1. Start applying for things you're not sure and you know you aren't qualified for. Often recruiters or HR people don't actually know what the fuck the job needs and just sorta copies similar job titles recs. Once you're able to talk to the actual hiring manager, then you can see if you're a good culture fit and if they can give you some on the job training.

  2. Get a job at something not really what you wanna do but feels related enough. For me, my big break into my career was working at a call center for a hospital. It was not IT related, but it got me office experience that I spun into IT experience.

My "production" home lab is 3 Optiplex 3050 with i7-7700. They work great and are pretty low power.

Its how you can tell PDP fans weren't paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn't gain any traction and he abandoned it.

Or maybe it just didn't help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.

Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn't peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.

He's also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There's a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled "Subscribe to PewDiePie" besides being a topical meme.

Seems interesting. What did you think about it?

I hate that this isn't "New Info"

I am glad that Reuters is reminding people of this fact.

Got any recs? I can generally talk my company into paying for most anything education wise, but Udemy style courses work with my ADHD the best.
