They have their purpose. But that purpose… is suspect.
I’ve only watched a couple times, so it may have been an in-joke I didn’t fully understand, but Anthony Carboni seems to call his chat “Jeremy”.
Reminds me of the first planet in Jedi: Fallen Order (well, the title photo does)
I mean, there’s a username of MargotRobbie but I’m not 100% sure the person using it is the actress.
Also fun is when the field to initially set the password is also character limited and you choose a password that’s longer than the field but don’t notice until you’ve set it and get repeated login failures afterward
I sort of stumbled into it. I was medium computer-oriented as a kid, and I majored in Management Information Systems in college, which felt like a very broad, Jack-of-all-trades IT program. Little bit of networking, little bit of programming, little bit of database work, etc.
When I graduated the job market was terrible and I wound up getting a job in petroleum doing data entry and reporting, got hired away to do similar work for a smaller company, and got laid off and hired to a much larger company doing more of the same. I’m not sure when or how I got started in Arc, but the department I was in used Arc for lease mapping and I excelled at it, and now ~13 years later I’m one of three guys in our division’s GIS group under the IT department. I’d never heard of GIS before I started here and now I feel like I’m a fairly decent cartographer, data wrangler, and Python programmer.
I kinda feel like GIS chose me. :)
A spokesperson for Farmer’s said:
“You are fascists! Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum!”
Was that actually merchandise in the store? I just thought they found the designer for Target’s merch, looked up his website, and found the Satanic stuff there. Not that it should matter either way.
Yeah, she’s Prava! I loved her in Fallen Order. And Steve Blum is the Bloodied Wolf. I was kinda surprised about that one. Also I guess Troy Baker is the Scoundrel.
The leader of the town of Backwater is the scoundrel helper from D3. Same VA, too.
Supposedly there’s a quest I did that (at the time I didn’t realize) was about what happens to the Paladin from D2?
I’ve been trying QField off and on as an exploratory thing for my organization and I’ve been having trouble nailing down the underlying problems behind some issues I’ve had. The test has been pretty rudimentary; just adding points and syncing, online and offline, with a WMS basemap.
Some stuff I’ve noted (these are all AFAIK, someone please correct me if I’m wrong, because I really want this to work):
-
the iOS app requires you to use iTunes for file management unless you use QField Cloud, and it’s been a while since I’ve tried it but it’s kind of a manual process to sync rather than a push button solution within QGIS.
-
I was able to set up a postgis layer with offline sync, but it created a gpkg copy of it that never seemed to write back to the original table. Direct access to the postgis layer worked well, but seemed to require an outward facing server (QField Cloud had a “secrets” tab for this, I think). I managed to get it working, but then our test server got pulled out from under us and I’ve not gotten our internal servers to connect over VPN to my phone.
It seems very close to being what we want, but just barely not making it, and with no clear idea of what’s failing and where.
There’s an interesting one in the Northwest Coast area of Scosglen where you’re hunting a wight, that felt like an allegory for generational trauma.
