I get that it must be frustrating to run a community and receive fairly low engagement on some posts, but this kind of complaint post is just sort of weird -- I've seen two of these from this community in the All feed that I remember and it's odd

They answered the "why".

Haha, while that is tempting and definitely sounds like it would be fun to watch, I'm not really in the market for making my own life more difficult for a few months. Revenge is a lot of work! 😂

Make what less obvious? I'm not part of this community and have no idea who she is but it's shown up in the All feed lol - what's going on? :o

Very true. Thanks! ✌️

Yeah you're right, I should've quit so many times over the last two years but I needed the money and I am more than a little uncomfortable with the thought of her being an absolute arsehole for the duration of my notice period

Gave it a listen on Tidal - sounds good! ✌️ Thanks for sharing!

I've accepted a job offer. It's a big paycut, and finances are going to be very very very tight for a year or two. I'm going to have to make lifestyle changes, but it is probably time to grow up and do that really.

I'm nervous about handing in my notice. The person I'll have to hand in the notice to is a fucking nightmare. She screamed in the face of a previous quitter, and made everybody rearrange the office seating so that people quitting couldn't sit near each other. She's going to be a pain in the arse for months.

But, positive. Feel like I'm making actual choices that I care about for once!

Post the link!! That's so exciting, well done!

It's bullshit. It's inauthentic. It can be useful for chewing through data, but even then the output can't be trusted. The only people I've met who are absolutely thrilled by it are my bosses, who are two of the most frustrating, stupid, pig-headed, petty people I've ever met. I wish it would go away. I'm quitting my job next week, taking a big paycut and barely being able to pay the bills, specifically because those two people are unbearable. They also insist that I use AI as much as possible.

Good choice. I haven't really kept up with new releases for a few years as the mainstream of the industry started to feel more and more like a scam, but I wonder if anybody's ever done studies comparing the percentage of people with short term memory issues, and the percentage of people who play video games -- because video game consumers seem to forget getting screwed over and constantly get surprised when they reward bad behaviour lol

I sincerely hope the suits running these companies go thirsty.

I've collected enough for a 1K army, just need to get through and finish up the painting now. Slightly regretting choosing an army with so much trim as the first minis I'll paint, and even more so that I painted them in slightly ugly colours first and am now having to repaint the Rubricae... But I am excited to finally table them sometime in the future!

Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

 

I've been watching the 02 - 06 seasons back through on F1TV Archives, and occasionally the audio will drop or there won't be any sound from a driver radio or pitbox interview, but it's usually pretty rare. However, I'm watching the first race of the '18 season at the moment, and the audio is really weird. It's seemingly slightly desynced, and the commentary cuts out often. The actual car sound is near-silent, too!

I'm wondering if it's just me?
