Millennial here. I've definitely noticed a shortage of people entering my technical field. Great for job security, and I'm treated very well at work. But this is going to be a problem down the road.

It's sad that they keep trying to make PCs more like phones. I want phones to be more like PCs.

They also keep taking away features, like removable storage (microSD) and headphone jacks. There's a few phones that have them, but it gets more difficult to find them as time goes on.

I have a "not Lexar" 8TB NVMe that I've had for almost 3 years with no trouble. Should I be worried? Or is Lexar just bad?

Incidentally, looks like the price has barely come down on these since I bought.

Is there a "positivity bias" counterpart to "negativity bias"?

Reminds me of a time one of my friends was happy that it was going to warm up and said something like "it's going to be twice as warm tomorrow". It was going from maybe 20F to 40F or something.

That led to an interesting discussion.

I have to use a lot of static IP addresses, and I'd take this over what I normally deal with.

I'm not personally interested in the tech, but I could see it being relevant if your refrigerator is connected to the internet and you are at the store. You could find out whether to buy more or not.

Reminds me of the Alpha Grip controller. Has a (really janky) trackball and an entire keyboard on it.

Owning and still loving the Steam Controller, the haptic concaved trackpads could be set up to really feel like a trackball and, in my opinion, had all the benefits of the trackball without the downsides.

I also use a Steam controller. I like the touchpad so much that I wish there was a stand alone one that I could use for day-to-day computing activities instead of having a physical ball.

I know there are square touchpads you can buy for pointing devices, but the ergonomics are completely different. They are more replacements for finger trackballs rather than thumb trackballs. Like just give me a Logitech MX Ergo with the pad.

Cyberpunk 2077 - been on my backlog for a while, finally got to this and am having a blast

Last Epoch - big fan of ARPGs and was waiting for it to get out of early access,

V-Rising - played quite a bit over the last few months but am easing off since v1.0 is coming out and will mean wipe to everything

It was a fun game for a bit, but the game also felt rather tedious at times.

I'll probably play it more at some point, but I've stepped away from it for the time being.
