#IT Things

It has dawned on me that when I move into a new house I'm going to have to buy a new router, switch, wireless points, security cameras, and implement badge entry. Life is hard for the IT enthusiast.

I can’t believe I’m almost done with my masters degree in computer science… and what do I do with it? I make programs of my overly complex silly little board games because they are too complicated to remember every fucking step of the game such simple games that programming them is sooooooo easy q.q :)

If your life is horrible and you need a new source of meaning and direction.... Do NOT find religion. Learn to identify plants.

Sometimes I'm really sad that there's not really a platform for... "IT-adjacent" people, who aren't proper IT people. You know, like business analysts.

Because let's face it, I'm not techy enough to be on Mastodon, and there isn't even a subreddit for business analysts that's not just... job ads and people shilling courses.

Sometimes I feel the only place where I see people in my particular line of work is fucking LinkedIn. Which... kinda makes me feel like my job is a scam, to be honest.

I want a platform where people actually talk about their job and their clients! I want a community where you can genuinely exchange advice and experiences! And I don't want it to be all sanitized job search nonsense and paying courses! There is so much hilarious bullshit in this line of work! Where are my memes?! Where are my anonymous confessionals?!

Anyway, it's really fucking hard to be hype for a job that feels like the epitome of "a job that people have just to have a job". And I'm convinced it doesn't have to be this way. This job IS interesting! I just wish I had someone to share it with.

I hate when I say things like "oh I want an ipod classic but with bluetooth so I can use wireless headphones" and some peanut comes in and replies with "so a smartphone with spotify?" No. I want a 160GB+ rectangular monstrosity where I can download every version of every song I want to it and it does nothing except play music and I don't need a data connection and don't have to pay a subscription to not have ads and don't have popups suggesting terrible AI playlists all over the menus.

Gimme the clicky wheel and song titles like "My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade- Blood (Bonus Track)- secret track- album rip- high quality"

women’s bodies weren’t “made” to do anything, nature didn’t “intend” anything, no human action is “unnatural” and there is no inherent “purpose” to a human life
