That's so pretty! And seems peaceful, why are you living there?

Trying really hard not to drive up to Lex and have a "talk" with our Medicaid brokers IT team

@Tonyshowoff I just seem to do better now without the meds, I'm not as "out of it" I'm more creative when I'm not on them. But I've also not been on them in almost 20 years to.

I didn't realise how severe my AD(H)D was until I started taking Modafinil (it didn't make me feel any different, unlike an amphetamine like adderrall) and then stopped, I then started to realise I got a whole lot less done. That's what's so weird about it, you don't even know it's working until you stop taking it.

I go back and fourth about taking it vs not taking it. And the not taking it wins every time.....so far. I have to be on my toes all the time though to get things done, but that's when I enter Hyper-focus mode.

I am your street pharmaceutical man.

@BMarie What I like about Modafinil is that it is not an amphetamine so you don't get the same resistance to it after taking it for years. Admittedly, I use adderall on the weekends or to speed things up, but intentionally not very often.

You can get Modafinil at http://modafinilcat.com/ - I know the person who actually runs it and I order tons from there, way cheaper than other places, and it takes about 1-2 weeks to get. This is not a paid endorsement.

Very funny @PSX_Defector.....

@thanksajdotcom do you have AD.D. to?

I do, and Modafinil helps; I take a lot of it and have for years.

I'm not on anything. I was on Ritalin for year's. From the age of 9 till high school. Not been on anything since. Sometimes I wished I had something.

@thanksajdotcom do you have AD.D. to?

Getting all my ducks in a row, brain on overload at the moment.

I may have access to a PE 1850 and 2900. And there are at least one or two boxes here that were to be retired with the migration to O365 this year.

I'm hoping over time to build this:

Just kidding... but it would be fun,.. until I got the electric bill

O.M.G!

I don't know if you all have read this or watched the video, but it's pretty amazing. I wish I could do something like that on my end of the spectrum.

@scottalanmiller

Wow! Thanks Scott! That's great info. I've been doing all the research I can and "studying" I'm ready to go all out.

Okay bear with me on this.....

I'm trying to decide on my home lab ideas...

1. Laptop or Desktop
2. One monitor or 2
3. Window's or Linux
4. What computer would be best

Hopefully this weekend I can get it up and going and start playing with things, like databases, and Office software and a few other ideas.

Thanks

Congrats @Joyfano! Good Luck

Welcome @Breffni-Potter

Trying to figure out when to fit a trip in to go meet @g.jacobse in person too sometime in May I think.

Have fun in KY while you're here

Maybe we can connect as well. I love meeting MangoLassi people!

That sounds great! I'd love to.

OH no......Frog run!

Mine looks so much better!

But I do like the pac-man theme though. Kinda wanna keep it.

I only posted screenshot because it has a single portal in view, showing the 8 bit style pellet lineup better than the overlapping portals in your view.

A number of people in our local ENL community have discussed the skinning and hope that more options become available.

A few of our RES player's really want it to go away. I want it to stay, like the sounds that go with it as well. Nice to meet another Ingress player BTW.

Google has the best one I think.....If you play Ingress this is what it looks like now:

It looks better when are not a smurf.

I like how they even made the XM go into a grid and look like pellets.

This company also said there will likely be a video game session after the follow up interview. Hopefully performance in said game doesn't affect the job as I suck at most video games.

Where is this company and how can I apply

Headquarters in in Virginia. but they have offices all over the US (no IT staff in those though). I'd be working for the parent company that owns a few large construction companies, road crews, agricultural and a few other odds and ends over the US. There's about 20 people at HQ that do IT, HR/PR, Accounting/Payroll for all the other companies. There's about 3,000 employees total I think not including sub contractors.

Oh wow. Sounds nice, hope you get it!

I'm old school when it comes to video games, give me anything Mario on original Nintendo or Super Nintendo. The new games not so much.
