    I own a macbook air and a mac mini. Both are home servers running Linux. I bought a IQfy pass because I was sick of connecting to a VPN to phonepost. I do all of my gaymen from a laptop, and enjoy it. (Though to be fair it runs pretty much everything I throw at it on ultra 1080p@144Hz and rarely dips below 100fps, which blew my fricking mind the first day of ownership since it's about the size of my macbook air)

    I'm 40 and still browse IQfy and have since IQfy was guro and technology was /tech/

    I've cheated most of the way through my comp science degree, if the answers to a test or source code to an assignment are available online I will use them without a second thought, felt guilty at first but now that part of me is dead. Honestly when I can cheat on 99% percent of my course work and get an A it feels like paradise. I can do whatever the frick I want while my family thinks I am working hard.

    The only time I struggle are with courses that are difficult to cheat on such as discrete math that require handwritten solutions to exams.

    I hope I can find a stupid easy tech job that pays 6 figures with barely any effort so I can do the same shit. I have passions besides tech that I give most of my time and effort working towards, tech will allow me to financially fuel those passions.

        >what did you do

        After being fired without explanation from the cybersecurity firm where I worked as a consultant for security web applications for almost a year, I got high and drunk, called my boss, thanked him for the opportunity he gave me, and he said weird things in an implicitly disrespectful and mocking tone towards me, so before hanging up I told him that he was behaving like a fricking butthole piece of shit motherfricker.

        He is the son of a high level senior banking executive in my country.

        Since this incident, six months ago, no job offer I have applied for has advanced in the slightest. I have never been called to advance in any selection process. It's as if I don't exist. It's as if no one has ever contacted me.

        I am nothing more than the faded memory of a dead man.

    I am making six figures as a systems engineer but I actually hate coding.
    I tanked a project once because I was put on it 'for my scriptwriting skills' but I didn't want to do it. Someone else took it over from me.
    I also play games on windows every single day for at least 8 hours, and have done since I got out of trade school. I didn't get a bachelors because I took 4 gap years to play videogames and frick around and I still make more money than tons of people. I cruised my way through school, never did a single piece of homework, winged my final exams, just barely passed, all so I can play more videogames. I love doing nothing and watching youtube/playing videogames so much. I love the internet so much. I think the key to life is minmaxing effort to payout and get the biggest money (IT) with the most minimal effort. I'm seriously contemplating dropshipping or doing youtube or something so I can buy my life back and play more videogames.

            You're both wrong. The human brain is not designed to intake the amount of information online. 5 people or so saying one thing can be enough social input to bias your brain into understanding 'everyone thinks this way'.
            The only winning move is to shitpost, and not believe what anyone says online.

            This anon gets it

            Discourse is like Godels Incompleteness Theorem. You can have a system which is complete, including all true statements, but then it will also include false statements. Or you can have a system which only contains true statements, but then it will be incomplete and there will be true statements that are not expressible in that system.

            This is just like how in programming languages you can be Turing complete or you can be safe, but not both at once (nothing remarkable since Godel's theorem was formulated as a statement about mathematical systems and programming languages are just math with extra steps).

            Anonymity can be a necessity for the production of truthful social expression. But the trust that goes with identity is a useful heuristic. Only ever engaging in anonymous communication is thus highly limiting, and might prevent the spread of useful truths. In some cases, reliance on anonymity is a cope for irrational levels of risk aversion.

Also battery life is shit so you’d still need a business laptop which makes any advantage that gaming laptop has like mobility lose its value. It’s not really cheaper than pc either and monitor is small so you can’t relax from distance while watching movie.

    At 18 I applied for college. My brother told me companies are looking for degrees in this one weird Great Value brand community college. I was delayed getting into college for a year because I refused to apply all other 6 months, then struggled to get back in the other 6 months.

    My college had posters for a blockchain club. It doesn't exist. My college had posters for a cybersecurity club. It doesn't exist. My college had posters for a video game programming club. I joined, became president, and left it to rot by doing nothing.

    Some guy just 'attempted' 'suicide' today and decided to tell me of all people about it over discord then decided to just disappear and not respond to multiple messages and attempts to voice call. We're from the same game that is basically public and open to anyone and I don't talk to him as much as others so it was awkward to have to be the one at the other end of this situation.

    I felt like responsibility had just been dropped into my lap that wouldn't end in a good way for me no matter how it went - so I immediately decided to ask for help from others in a shared discord that included other people from the same game.
