  • Well, I am doing pretty well for myself in a combination of IT, geophysics, and offshore/ship stuff… but when things aren’t going my way at work I still conclude that it’s t8me to get the necessary licenses to finally become a crane driver.

    I’ve driven a lot of cranes (ships cranes, mostly), but I’m talking about those huge tower cranes - chilling alone at the top, and once in a while someone calls you on the radio, needing something lifted from A to B. Seems chill as fuck, and no searoll to worry about either.



  • Well, cavemen also need tech support, just a different kind of tech.

    Gork: “Stick go thud. I want go stab”
    Pepsison: “Have you tried rebooting it?”
    Gork: “?”
    Pepsison: “Sorry, old habit” Sharpens his spear “try it now”
    Gork: “Gork happy. Gork bring you mammoth”

    And with Gork happy I’m sure he can help you find the right twigs twine and logs to make a primitive cart. Soon you and Gork can haul all the mammoth you’d ever need.















  • I used to do the same, and for stationary PCs, that’s still my recommendation. Sure, some might actually need bleeding edge stuff for for some specific niche high performance thing, but for most people that’s a waste of money.

    The only exception is for laptops. I rely on laptops as I’m often on the go, and I’ve generally had better results when going high end (within reason) than going mid-tier.
