Spoony the Pussy One: Life is in the Render Queue

[da PAC Nigguh]

LOL, "Do you know Linux?"

Noah would probably respond sarcastically with "Well I know of Linux."

Part of me wishes this was real and he would take her up on it just to see him get laughed out of the interview.

Don't you guys want to see Spoony get a real job? Besides being the best thing for him, we'd get lots of laughs from his highness having to humble himself to interact with other people and having superiors to answer to. He'd probably be raging about his coworkers on Twitter and how much smarter he is than them.

[Kugelfisch]

It's not about what we want. After over twenty years and zero work experience nobody would humour his application for a tech job for even a nanosecond.

Truth is, he could send out twenty applications a month for just about anything and he currently would have very slim chances of getting something.
He is 40, looks like hell warmed over, is antisocial, has no qualifications or experience in anything, no motivation and is a wreck both physically and mentally. Any job he'd miraculously get he would lose that same month, if not week.
God forbid anyone was to Google his name and find his Twitter account.

How much would you wanna bet that the only picture he'd ever attach to these applications would be that one where he still had short hair?

I could have phrased that better. The point still stands. He know less about computers than your average 40yr old, which just goes to show what an absolute unmotivated sloth he is.

I love that short saga where he stumbled upon a 3D physics dice roller and demanded to know the mystical properties of that app's RNG (to which the developer responded with "We just used the default RNG to faff around with the initial die spin and let physics do the rest", to the surprise of absolutely no one).

lol, I remember that, it was a classic. The dev went into detail to explain to him how the system worked, making him look retarded in the process, so he never even acknowledged her response. Anyone has a link t that tweet btw?

Yes, but life is not a sitcom. If it was, Spoony would still be living with Charlie Sheen.

Linux

There's like 10 different distros, and my personal observation is that every single one if full of fucking assholes that just want to flail their Linux-peen around and not actually help or educate people so their community can grow. What good is a free OS if it's unusable by most end users (myself included)? For context, I used MINT on a side machine for awhile, just to see. It comes laid out basically like Win7 was, that's cool! I even used some basic audio recording software on it. My problem with MINT and Linux in general was that for any action I wanted to perform, I would have to go deep into the command prompt and tell it to function. Now, am I 100% spoiled by commercial OS where most of that grunt work is taken care of behind the scenes? Absolutely. Did I ask for help to try and learn Linux/MINT better? Totally, I'm willing to learn and got things working eventually to the degree I wanted and it was interesting. Were the Linux geniuses helpful? No. Any education or clarification i received was from other PC normies like myself who had it way worse than I inb4 "It's freeware bro!", I get it, when you're not getting paid to develop a full OS there's no incentive to add quality of life improvements. Linux devs are still pricks.

I just said make sure Miles knows about it.
If this stays a secret between us, Noah gets to continue his "woe is me, no one would hire me" pity party.

If Miles and the parents know, then he doesn't get to play that card anymore. They might force him to take this job as a condition for taking him in.

Do you have Miles's phone number or something? Write the Tucson PD or use some email from a blog that hasn't been updated in 10 years?

Dear Officer Antwiler:
A person sent me a direct message on Twitter at 3AM claiming they attended high school with your brother Noah and could help him gain a position in the computer science field if he was willing to relocate (please see attached). I wanted to make you aware of the situation and hope you keep this opportunity in mind for the future.

Sincerely,
Internet Forum People

Spoony will be fine. If he wants to work, he can work. This isn't Europe.
He doesn't need DHI forwarding his family unverified job opportunities that come through Twitter.
