@eddiejennings I get people trying to hire me for pharmaceutical companies in non-It roles. Probably because I have a NJ address

Egg nog with peppermint schnapps. The old Christmas go-to

I just picked up Laura's gifts. I had to order them awhile back and just picked them up today. A big Michael Kors purse and matching wallet. That's literally all of my Christmas money but I know she will love it.

Going to install nginx and use it for SSL certification on my web servers. First time needing to do it

About to drink Swedish glogg

It's terrible IP from a gaming perspective.

I disagree with that, as I like some of their IP.

This is the, I don't like it so therefore it isn't art, argument. People have individual tastes and while I don't like some of Nintendo's IPs I can understand why people do.

I don't drink beer and think it tastes like vomit, so all beer is trash and breweries shouldn't exist.

Correct, but @scottalanmiller likes to make blanket statements that insinuate what he said is true for everyone.

You aren't really a candidate for liking the IP, though. Anyone our age likes it from nostalgia (potentially.) Find people who like Nintendo IPI that didn't grow up with it.

You're talking about two completely different points in time though. These kids aren't more objective because they didn't grow up with it. They are probably going to say the graphics suck and there are no loot boxes.

You're also wrong about Zelda

Wawa tonight. Tri-state area thing

@dafyre My condolences

It wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't have to come in at 6am today. I didn't sleep at all last night, so I'm hoping the liquid energy kicks in here before too long.

I also got zero sleep

@dafyre said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Trying to wake up from my lunch time nap. I somehow managed to function well enough to down a bologna sandwich on my way out the door, lol.

I wish I had a siesta

@scottalanmiller said in What did you have for lunch or dinner today?:

I'm quite jealous right now.

@tim_g Also Chemex lists the temp of the water to be 180-200°F (I try to hit the middle) to not chemically alter the taste of the coffee. Proper blooming is incredibly important.

@rojoloco He sealed an entire bag of water just to show me. It was really cool.

@dustinb3403 aw geez

@dustinb3403 lol. way less aggressive than @Dashrender too

lol dash

@tech1 Where do your passions lie? DevOps? Servers? Networking? Linux? Virtualization? Storage? Databases?

Her passion is Coffee.

A shared passion around here.

Honestly it's only because I have a terrible sleeping schedule

lol who doesn't? I slept from 6:30 PM last night until 1:00 AM. I start work at 9, although I didn't have to go in today due to a blizzard.
