Things that irritate you - Part 2

[BeerIsNotGood...]

Load shedding.

:crylaugh:

 

[BeerIsNotGood...]

Was supposed to move out yesterday but didn’t happen because of the movers so more likely Tuesday.

So i’m still with her until then even though I have the keys to the other place but there isn’t even one piece of furniture.

Jirre what did I miss...

Java / Eclipse / Pydev

What an unstable piece of sht. Seen about half a dozen different errors in the past 30 mins trying to get this to launch cleanly

Uninstall / reinstall...now down a sourceforge mailing list rabbit hole of similar complaints with "fix" suggestions involving anything from timezone hacks to copy around random folders.

Gonna find myself a different IDE that doesn't blow

Pycharm, thank me later.

Society in general, this whole world just seems to be going to a ball of excrement. Freedom of speech is no more, you cannot have an opinion, people aren't vaccinating (which might actually be a good thing to cull the herd a bit), people in the wrong getting off blah blah.

Right there with you, seems like I woke up one morning and society just did a 180, being a gentleman is a sin, politeness is a neon sign to try and extract value, and no conversation or interaction is just that, everyone will try and sell you something.

Oh and the service industry in SA has gone to the dogs.

What irritates the bejeezus outta me? Sheer fu**ing ineptitude, if your iq is colder than your coffee, you should not have any type of contact with society at large.

2. The walking pattern of the average millennial. Look up dip****, you're in a public space, not your mothers kitchen. I've taken to walking people out the way, cause personal space is clearly not a thing anymore.

3. The blank bovine look of entitlement, I'll stop there.

4. Managers and ceos who are basically hustlers, making lofty promises that only gandalf the white could pull off, at a stretch.
No I will not sacrifice **uckall, pay me or pay someone else.

The racist bs outcry by people when they cannot get their way.

Isn't there anywhere else you could crash just for the time being? She sounds like a piece of work, man. Strongs

Not really. But during the week, it’s fine.

Edit: After being kicked, scratched to the blood and strangled this morning when trying to show her her cocaine straws in her bag, this is what’s happening right now.

Brexit...gonna make things complicated for me


Change the locks...

I can adopt you for a small fee.

The locks are planned before I have to give the flat back. For now she has a lease (that expires at the end of the month) so she would definitely go the legal route.

When you fill in a form, submit it, only to get a response in a day or two stating that it is incomplete. It would help to let me know what is incomplete (such a waste of time)

Lately I've been getting annoyed at my lack of drive to finish the horde of games I'm currently playing.

Assassin's Creed 4 is about 40% done, but I've lost interest.
Doom (2016) I got to about 60% in, got bored, started afresh and I'm now at 20% again
On my third replay of Skyrim which is now probably 30% in. It felt too grindy
Path of Exile I'm at Act 7 but I haven't launched the game in weeks
GTA V is about 25% done but I also lost interest as it feels too easy

I must sound spoilt with all the games waiting for me but it honestly feels like a chore sometimes to sit down and invest and hour to ninety minutes to get maybe 2 or 3% done in these games. It sort of makes me think these open world games don't have enough content to go around to keep me captivated and that I am more suited to linear gameplay types of games (Doom being the exception)

Fiancée gives my numbers to courier to call when they arrive to deliver her package. Courier calls me to confirm contact numbers and delivery time. Courier arrives and call fiancée's number instead of mine (she was unavailable during that time). Courier returns package to their warehouse because no one was available at my house.

Now I have to @$# wait for them again tomorrow!

The prices people are charging for second PCs, there are people who honestly think 9 grand is okay for a 6 year old i7 with a relatively mid range gfx card for that time period sigh. I'm going to wait maybe another day and then offer a low offer as they seem to be emigrating.
Also a lot of people who advertise PCs on Junkmail,OLX, Gumtree and Facebook market seem to not realise you need to actually say what the PC is, list the specs, not just Gaming PC and from the pics you can work out that yes it might've been a gaming PC in 2009 but right now it's a doorstop.

Don't know what you are looking for but take a look at carbonite.co.za they have great second hand prices. Obviously just be careful of scammers but its a great community if you don't know about it.

Buying a phone from a physical shop with physical people.

Slow delivery times of Pargo.

Working all out on a sprint commitment, pulling off some dank bit wise operations, having the story mothballed because "they" are not ready for it.
