Getting rejections months later (like 2+) makes me scratch my hair. I've been looking for work for ~100 days now (according to my pinned post) and at this point, I truly forgot about y'all. I'd name the company but that's not worth it

Yesterday some guy made a post in the Baldurs Gate 3 subreddit asking "How can I buy this game?" Obviously the answer is "steam, xbox etc" so I clicked on it like "huh" Turns out the guy (who I presume is a teenager) has been saving for this game for 2 (!) years and thinks he finally has enough funds to buy the game. But, he lives in Egypt. Valve does not support purchases through EGP (Egyptian Pounds). So he has to buy it in USD. But, in Oct 2023 his and other banks in Egypt, disallowed debit cards from making purchases in foreign currency. So he can't buy the game, what does he do? He really wants to own his first game, and he really wants it to be BG3. Suggestions were "use PayPal" "I can't, they're charging in USD too" and "use crypto" (not sure if that was an avenue open to him, but that's an arse ache and rife for scams if you don't know what you're doing).

Interviewer: Can you explain these gaps in your resume? Me: Those are typographical indicators called spaces and line breaks that separate words and paragraphs.

Look, browser makers. If you REALLY want to innovate then give me a button that consolidates every tab from the 7 browser windows I somehow have open into one fucking window.

I heard a great joke today What's the difference between a hedgehog and a Range Rover? Well with a hedgehog the pricks are on the outside.

I get approached a lot by recruiters. Like most modern algorithm, powered things, it suggests more of the same. This poses a challenge for me as I want to do things differently.

Annoyance of the day: take affiliate marketing links, extract JWT tokens from click-through tracking URIs, extract information from token to find landing page destination. I wish this wasn't a necessary skill -.-

if a post gets traction and a wider audience, it should be possible for the community as a whole to suggest alt text, rather than suggesting the original poster get fucked for not including alt text access conflicts are real and we're all just individuals doing the best we can under our own circumstances businesses need to be held accountable and platforms need to be made accessible, but part of that accessibility is providing tools to help people to help people

The problem with working in the UK with most colleagues being in the US is that the first thing you see in Slack on a Monday morning is people celebrating Friday afternoon.

You know what's *actually* the craziest part about being gender non-conforming? When you realize you can just be whoever you want, whenever you want. If I get tired of being a girl in 10 years or whenever, I can just stop being a girl. Yeah, I'll have a vagina and stuff but like, I could just throw on some mens jeans, a men's tee, a baseball cap, and stop shaving. I wouldn't have a beard or anything anymore and maybe people would still gender me as female, but like, 🤷‍♀️ Gender is personal on an intimate level, but also meaningless on a societal level. I spent 30+ years looking like a guy. I've always been a girl but people thought I was a guy bc of how I dressed mostly. But now I dress like a girl and take some hormones and people think I'm a girl. Gender is dumb. Be trans. Do crime.
