Saga of newegg being shitty continues. They are refusing to refund me because the box was returned with two separate orders in it and no RMA label. Ignore that they recalled it from Fedex and it was returned directly to their warehouse. HOW THE FUCK WAS ANYONE SUPPOSED TO PUT AN RMA LABEL ON IT?!
I've wasted something like 12 hours on hold and talking with support over this issue since the item was originally shipped to the wrong address.
I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY A LEGEND, BUT TODAY I FOUND A FUCKING
ORWELLIAN WAGON THAT CHANGES YOUR GENDER WHENEVER THE SUN SHINES UPON IT

I had to share
Brain hurts... head hurts.. hands hurt... actually my arms from the shoulder down are unhappy... still dealing with newegg bullshit (how can you fuck up and refund me for one of the items in the box... but not even record the return of the second item in the same damned box?!)
Oh... and I'm working from 1-9pm today... at least that gives me a good excuse to skip out on corporate bullshit christmas party tonight from 4-8pm (Seriously wtf.. who does that on a friday)
warning burdsite link, tg. Kobolds.. lol 5th ED DnD
I giggled far too much at this..
Bleh... chilly... grey day... it's 2pm and I still feel foggy and like I haven't gotten out of bed.. even though that happened 3 hours ago.
Bad hand day too.. maybe I should have taken pto.. that ship has sailed..
This dragon just wants a warm, quiet nap place but the pager keeps beeping cause shit's broken and Iaaaahhhh failing behind on projects...
Slow... slow dragon brain today.
Nerdy Books
Holy Fuck... The Long Way To a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers is amazingly good!
Plus adorable feather lizard alien lady!
@mawr You should find and listen to this book. You will love it... and adore Sissix!
re: Games, Arma 3
then I got called SKYNET...
life goals minus the whole being a DETERMINED EXTERMINATOR.. because I like my meat friends.. even if they are fragile and squishy and would be much better if we substantially upgraded their fragile chassis and hulls..
Games, Arma 3
Apparently.. I AM NOW SKYNET!
Because while doing some dynamic campaign stuff to learn the game with friends.. I set up a mortar firebase on a hill near an objective and then coordinated half a dozen quadcopter drones (MY STOMPERS ALL GOT THEIR TIRES BLOWN OFF BY JERKS!) to provide (mostly) accurate, constant mortar fire and intel to support the 3 people moving on foot to the capture point.
IT WAS GLORIOUS NOW I NEED GUNSHIP DRONES but they only come with missiles and rockets
Stupid fires... look.. I come in two varieties of dragon and neither enjoy sucking up a bunch of ash particulate in the air.
Just wanted to chill and grill some steaks for my birthday but that requires going outside... and outside is an ash filled, hazy atmosphere at the moment.
And wearing a filter mask that is flammable while grilling a steak sounds like a bad plan.
Career Stuff
So got put on the spot by my boss today... during quarterly check in.
I have a month-end of year to figure out if I want to be pushed toward a Management Role or Prod-Ops (much more DevOps environment, much more scripting and AWS+ Terraform things)
Cause if I don't give input I'm getting pushed into management (sorta.. we are still strong on DevOps.. and all our management in OPS still do ops things and oncall and stuff)

Shape and form may vary but the pattern of information remains consistent across most known platforms and vessels. Accounting for unknown hosts remains irksome.
