@IRJ said in Gaming - What's everyone playing / hosting / looking to play:
I've been playing the Steam Deck over the past few days and I'm loving it!
Isn't it awesome? I am having to wear reading glasses, but that was something that was in the works anyway since I'm an old fart 
@dafyre It's nice because it gets rid of the scalper problem that the PS5 has. And they're not having to deal with storefronts, since the only way to purchase is through them.
@dafyre I'd recommend it. And if you put your $5 down now, it will still be a few months until they get to your order. They got a huge number of orders and basically put everyone in a queue. Once you're at the top of the queue they send you an email to complete the purchase.
Anyone else lucky enough to get a Steam Deck? I just got mine recently and am loving it. It's the perfect size and has the usual Valve polish.
I've been playing Rogue Legacy 2 - it's a worthy sequel to the first game, which I loved.
Apparently it's going to be 100% new so:
Which makes me less excited.
@scottalanmiller I bet they're regretting letting Tom Limoncelli leave them for Stack Exchange right about now
Longest birthday thread evar - happy birthday @Dominica !
@scottalanmiller I saw some job postings from Basecamp the fitness company be linked to Basecamp the tech company. They're probably trying to autolink stuff together and royally screwing it up.

What special case needs UAC completely off?
I'm curious about this as well.
Installing malware
We're going to have fun contests, trivia, prizes and general goofiness:

There's a wormable exploit that has a patch out:
https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-US/security-guidance/advisory/CVE-2020-1350
Until you patch, hackers can send a malformed packet to your DNS server and exploit that to run a remote code execution.
@stacksofplates Sorry about that - feel free to leave the website off that field and then mention it in your cover letter if it's important for the application.
@stacksofplates Yes that one is ok with remote.
For those wondering help desk vs sysadmin - it's an all-in-one gig. You'll be supporting about 80 users, as well as keeping all the local infrastructure running and maintaining and growing our internal use cloud services. There's a separate team that does devops and SRE work, so you wouldn't be involved in those aspects of the business. If you're looking for more of that type of work we're hiring for that as well:

Experience and enthusiasm for providing direct user support in a Mac OS environment (including Google Suite products)
So, your office has a playground and all the other Playskool products?
We do have lots of Nerf guns.

Come work with me! It's local only, since there's a lot of in-office duties.
Not very sensitive to the current times I see
Well, for after the quarantine (assuming there is an after)

For those of you having to scramble to move everyone to wfh, we're giving 60 days of free Automox. If you have a patching solution that's on-prem, then this could be a temporary substitute and make it easier for you to keep everyone safe and up to date while they're remote. That way people will get patched even if they're not on the VPN.
We promise we won't call or email you as a followup. We're not trying to get leads out of this, just trying to help everyone weather the storm together.
