“Do I look like I know what a Wayland is?”

Thanks!

This is true, but Analogue has a great reputation already in this space from their other products so I am hopeful.

What about an FPGA for running the original game cartridges? Such as the Analogue 3D when that eventually releases. Quirks and all included as it becomes the N64. It even supports Bluetooth controllers too and 4k or CRTs.

He must have had a fever. A very strong fever that also heated up the rest of the area to a similar temperature. I am sure that was what happened.

Oh I know the value of networking. A lot of guys won’t try to be friends with someone that’s not into them and they miss out on something great. The big one being a friend. For a lot of women, not having women friends is a big red flag and some guys just don’t bother.

It is no bother at all, thanks for checking in.

I am surprised you found this thread considering how long its been. Unfortunately, she is not into me. However, we became really great friends and hang out a lot. So there is that.

There is a common circle jerk for sure. Humans gonna human, it happens everywhere. However the question was honest if a bit rude sounding.

It isn’t really about edginess. People tend to continue believing in whatever religious preference (or none) they have unless something convinces them otherwise in whatever direction.

To an atheist’s point of view, it legitimately doesn’t make sense why someone would be religious when what they see is nonsense. It is a genuine confusion and not necessarily meant to be rude.

This isn’t just an atheist thing that happens, religious people can often not understand why someone would ever choose anything other than their religion. It doesn’t make sense to them either.

Those smiley fucks have got it coming, I swaer.

A Dungeon & Daddies reference is not what I expected to see today either.

I like the way you think! I think we could do it cheaper though. You know how we have that spinney thing at NASA for the astronauts? Well what if we stand that straight up and accelerate it even faster to launch them into orbit? They will already be dead so the G’s taken on by the body should be fine.

If it makes you feel better, you would be long dead before you ever hit the ground. Jumping from that point, you would still be in an ever so slightly declining orbit around earth. I am not sure how long it would take you to reenter but you would have died from the lack oxygen long before then. When you do get there, you will most likely burn up in the atmosphere spreading your ashes over whatever continent or ocean happens to be below you at the time. A great way in my opinion to do cremations with maximum spread.

The real question is could we ever really trust photographs before AI? Image manipulation has been a thing long before the digital camera and Photoshop. What makes these images we see actually real? Cameras have been miscapturing image data for as long as they have existed. Do the light levels in a photo match what was actually there according to the human eye? Usually not. What makes a photo real?

Edit: after a deep conversation with her I am beginning to think what I suggested is probably a bad move and I should just stick to the course you recommended. She told me she likes me because of how I act and the things I do and and most important to this conversation, the things I don’t. She doesn’t believe I have any ulterior motives. Which I am not sure that is the case as I am interested, but I guess I will not ask her. That seems like it would just kill our current relationship. If it happens at all, it will just be natural.

Looks like you were right, she definitely feels frustrated about being doubted and made to feel stupid. Hasn’t given specifics yet, but I am sure I can get her talking at some point. She said she appreciates being able to bounce ideas off of me without worrying about the above. Good start I would say.

If this shit is what women have to deal with constantly, I am not surprised there are so few of them in my field. Why can’t we all just get along?

I would like to say you have been very helpful and I think have settled on taking your advice. No matter how this ends, I could still end up with a good friend. I would be lying if I said I wouldn’t be a bit disappointed though. However, that’s life and she has no obligation to me.

Also I have no idea who the guy was or what role he played to her. I assumed it was a lower level employee but you bring up a good point there.

She was working on some self assigned homework. So it was not work related.

1. She is in a higher position than I am, I just have a skillset she doesn’t.

2. As far as I know, that is not the case.

I already got together with her outside of work on non-related work tasks.

Yeah, if I had to guess, she is currently trying to figure out what she wants. Or I could be completely wrong and the girl is just hungry for Linux knowledge. Which is also great because we need more of those kind of people.
