Job interview today didn't happen. There was a problem relating to the fact that Skype is not and doesn't function with Skype for Business. Not a big problem just call up and change it to a over the phone interview right? After all I gave myself a half hour to work out the bugs before the interview...

My account is basically a retirement account so it's pretty much all very stable slowly growing investments, and in the past 4 months the total value of the portfolio has increased more than in the previous 2 years. Yeah I'm a Boglehead and my stuff looks the same, but it's deceiving. My returns si...

If working from home becomes permanent (and there is no compelling reason for it not to)... Allow me to springboard off this, while some industries might in fact stay with working from home (or increase it's incidence rate), there is in fact some evidence coming out that this pandemic is decreasing...

Looking for an old Electric Vehicle thread I found this. I found gas for $1.99 today, but OPEC did in fact cut oil production.

I did have to use the imagesize:100x100 search term since they got rid of the tool that lets you specify the pic size in a drop do...

I didn't care for Injustice. I don't know if it's a low quality game or that fighting games are not my thing.

AAA rail shooter on a flat plane with shrinking storm multiplayer pvp. One side is Empire on the A side of the map and the other side are Rebels on the B side. The 'storm' consist of enemy cap ships giving chase that drill down your HP when they get too close. When you score hits then you up move a...

I'll get it if the VR is convincing and/or the gameplay is as deep as XvT. Of course I have no hope that they would dare make a AAA-budgeted, Star Wars-licensed game as rich as the Star Wars flight simulators from 25 years ago (which could be run on a modern refrigerator) because they weren't easil...
