Polo shirts and terrible coffee abound

Sitting in a tech conference and looking around at my “peers” all dressed in a different colored polo shirts. Finished my single origin fair trade coffee and refilled with the conference room coffee here at the Union station hotel, and had to actively keep myself from retching and making a scene while some guy from a middleman network support company tries to explain what the OSI model is.

\facepalm

Bonus I drove into Nashville next to another FoST bro. I call other ST drivers “my ST bro”. Which actually upon reflection sounds gross.

Also my super cute Doge buddy for your time. I may be eschewing buying mods for my FoST so I can get my buddy a little sister this summer.

I think the fact that is “conference” coffee somehow makes even mediocre coffee horrible.

You should’ve told him you prefer the TCP/IP model.

Today I got asked by a Dev if I could change the “from” email address for our github environment because his email rules are putting his github emails in the wrong folder...

According to my boss “While funny, asking someone if they’re high isn’t strictly professional”

Whelp, TIL.

I will admit to not being preppy enough to know that. Also, that’s fucking Fudgie and they know it.

A Fudgie by any other name would smell as sweet - or alternately not, and WHERE’S MUH ICECREAM. Seriously, though, that logo is totally Fudgie.

Pretty much, even if inquiring minds must know.

“Finished my single origin fair trade coffee”

Oh hell. One part of our organization sells that crap. “Nicaraguan fair-trade organic Coffee from an all green supply chain”

It’s faking terrible!

I hated Vineyard Vines before I even knew what it was. I mean, I like those guys' entrepreneurship, but at my age, there is nothing fun or nostalgic about 80s preppies. They were very much the assholes that all the movies made them out to be. Not something to be emulated. I'll just sit here in my quasi-hippie Life is Good t-shirts, thank you very much.

Nah m8 wore a sweater today.

Can’t deny I was tempted to boot up and start playing the division during some of the more boring bits of the conference.

Not to hijack this subject, but I think you’d really enjoy Arma 3, if your PC can run it well.

The thing about Arma 3 multiplayer is it is capable of running terribly on amazing computers and not bad on crappy computers.

It pretty much depends on the servers you play on, so a lot of players join tactical groups (with ex-military members) which host their own private servers. There are some good public servers though.

But yes, that should be great.
