  • My dad was alive at the time and rolled with the freak crowd (LGBT, hippies, what would one day be called punks, etc )when he heard about that story he immediately said it made sense because “there were all lot of people who already wanted to string him up for his skin color, let alone being gay” with this really serious look on his face

    He grew up in California, too, so yeah


  • Kinda, and might even be where the TES community got inspired from

    In TES the world is on a cycle of birth by Akatosh and destruction by Alduin, followed by birth by Akatosh and destruction by Alduin (but under new names now), repeat. But also, they’re all happening simultaneously as well, because at that layer time doesn’t exist, that’s only for mortal realms

    The Yokudans saw the end coming and basically said “nah, id rather live” and stepped sideways into the main timeline as it was the next in line to go in the cycle, but was also physically next to them in the godly scheme of things

    Confused? Good, cuz that’s entry level TES lore bullshit it only gets harder from there and I can’t do it


  • Not a nerf, but int is their lowest stat. In Morrowind they start at 30 in Int and Wil, but that’s actually roughly the average intelligence of the people of Vvardenfell (given most of them are country bumpkins after all, most people in TES would be fucking stupid). This is actually kinda weird given the lore of Yokudan sword-singers (magic, which would need those stats, but I get the feel it’s a balancing thing)

    What might be worse is the dark skinned race technically isn’t even from Tamriel or Nirn, they’re the descendents of the Yokudans, who walked sideways from the last timeline into this one. They’re literally not of this world or timeline








  • Yea I’ve never understood the negative reaction to working with women in cyber security

    The ND boys who got bullied by girls for being little creepy weirdos got into tech as a replacement for a sex life, grew up creepy about it, can’t be normal when the thing that they replaced in their lives is suddenly back and fucking with said replacement

    Source: I was one of the ND boys getting bullied for being a creepy little weirdo and got into tech, but I learned how not to be such a creepy little weirdo from the bullying and managed to make a friend and learn and grow. Others… Don’t. Having known many of them closely, only some of them can be forgiven for this lack of decency


  • I found certifications to be a waste of time and money, honestly. I literally had HR at multiple places tell me it was entirely irrelevant to their decision to even interview me when it was a job requirement to have

    Im rather convinced it was once useful as I knew someone who did it, but at some point it swapped to the same fucking scam colleges are in the US: pay to be sub-entry-level in their eyes
