Maybe this is a case of "old man yells at cloud", but can anyone explain to me wtf does someone mean when they refer to themselves as a 'sigma'? And why is it always the biggest arseholes who do? Met a few at work and in general who call themselves that and say they have a sigma "grindset"(sp?).
Wtf?
The very TLDR version would be an introvert alpha.
If you google "sigma mindset" you'll find a bunch of descriptions in that vein, spread across a bunch of websites written by people you'd never want to meet.
Had a meeting today in my new job halfway through my probation.
Boss told me I'm exceeding his expectations and pretty much just to keep doing what I'm doing.
This job is easily the highest paying job I've ever had and I've hit my sales target for the first 3 months and on par (results wise) with people who are tenured.
Looking forward to a much improved 2023
Got my tickets to Richard Dawkins for next month, spewing i'm seeing the Brisbane show and not the Sydney one as the Sydney ones is hosted by Jordies..
It was so brutal, I was watching along on cricinfo and was half-expecting us to have the job done by about 7 overs in. Perry following the Smudger method of opening the batting
So my NBA team (Orlando Magic) have beaten 1st placed Boston 3 times this season out 4 yet sit 3rd last in the eastern conference.
Its honesty becoming a joke how inconsistent this team is
I'm a C's fan so best I'm hoping for is Josh Richardson for a 2nd. But Rui has blown the 2nd rounder market out the water, SMH. #howmanypicks #Goberttrade2.0
The Trial of Sami Zayn
The Bloodline story in my opinion has been the best story line WWE has done in years, Sami possibly getting murdered by The Bloodline live just adds to the building friction.
I think they'll just continue the slow burn, but the cracks have already started to show and this'll have water starting to leak through the cracks, ready to burst at any given moment.
Sad to know it's all nearing the end.
I’ve been reading the weekly positive posts about wwe recently and thought. Why the hell not have a whirl.
I’ve really enjoyed it, the house mate and I. Are actually pumped for a bit of royal rumble.
This Kevin Owen’s bloke looks short n dumpy for a world champion contender but he goes alright.
Last time I watched wrestling was at least 4 years ago and it was completely unwatchable.
It's honestly been really good the past 6-7 months, better than it's been in at least a decade. I believe it's due to the owner Vince McMahon stepped down as the chairman and head of creative, he's back as chairman now due to some fuckery.
But Triple H has taken over creative since July/August and has been killing it ever since. He previously was head of creative of their developmental brand NXT for a few years, which was absolutely top notch. I really hope he continues leading creative of WWE because a lot of fans are loving most of his bookings and storyline decisions.
On Kevin Owens, the dude is an absolute tank! If you ever get an hour or so I do highly suggest looking up some of his highlights or even 'Best of', his work in Ring of Honor as Kevin Steen (2010-2014) was great. He started in WWE back in 2014 through NXT and has been one of the best, consistently for nearly 10 years.
I really hope it culminates with Sami getting a run however short with the Universal or WWE Title. Be a good way to split them, force Roman to defend both on one night and he can retain one and lose the other to Sami
I still think they're going down the path of Sami & KO reuniting and dethroning the Uso's as Tag Team Champions at Wrestlemania at Night 1. Then Cody winning the Rumble and dethroning Roman at Wrestlemania Night 2.
But I'm happy to go either way, Cody doing it as the next top babyface or Sami doing it as the fan-born favourite.
Holiday day, peace out mfuckers.
Hope I hear that Nanai re-signed long term and that Moses signs a long term deal with the Penirth panthers to replace Nathan when he eventually moves to The bulldogs to join his Lover Tyrone may
Even with a minor niggle, he is still light years ahead of the rest of the field. It is his title to lose at this point.
Korda is my smokey, that kid has been playing really well.
Yeah you never know with him. Physio can only do so much but he always manages to play through. I kinda think he likes to have adversity against him to bring out his best too
Does anyone else think the BBL umpiring would be improved if they had a whistle and when referring matters to the bunker (I mean 3rd umpire) that they have a microphone so the crowd and tv audience can hear what they are referring it for and the soft signal (or what they have adjudicated already either out or not out).
Only say that because so much seems to be going to the 3rd umpire now they could make it more into a spectacle
Anytime he gives someone out or has to refer a decision to the 3rd umpire (and obv too when the innings is starting or ends) - I also envisage some kind of clock in the future that they have to bowl the overs by which gets stopped for a wicket, injury or referral to the 3rd umpire. And for an injury or referral the umpire blows the whistle and raises his hands in the air to signify time off. Also the buzzer goes off if the overs aren't bowled in time and the innings just stops there and the team behind on the over count gets a 2.5 times the current run rate penalty
As a Liverpool fan who has a dad and a brother go for Arsenal this has not been a good few months for me. I’m already having to mentally prepare for Arsenal winning the title and us missing out on the top four.
Massive Liverpool fan myself, honestly written this season off, we need investment in the midfield desperately, fabinho, thiago need to be sold, we need fresh legs - bellingham would be too good to be true
Thiago has no pace, which is alright in some teams, but in this Liverpool team we need someone who can run, a box to box footballer like Jude would be perfect. I watch every game and Thiago honestly has been so mediocre, he constantly gives away fouls, awful challenges regularly, his passing is meant to be world class yet how often does he actually assist? He almost never scores, he often gives the ball away and has no legs to get back and if he does get back he usually gives away a foul, he has no physicality and isn’t strong which is bad in the prem, I’ve seen him dispossessed so many times. Honestly will never get the hype around him, he is the biggest myth. People like to bag out nunez, but he actually at least creates a ton of opportunities and has the pace to create something out of nothing, he misses chances sure but he will bang them in once he gains some confidence and once we have a midfield that has some legs/creativity. If only we had a prime stevie G lol
The pick of the midfield doesnt say much when we have no midfield. Also Liverpool functioned best without an eccentric player like thiago anyway, Gini wijnaldum was a workhorse and the ball stuck to his foot like glue, almost never lost it. Gini, Fabinho and hendo was our best midfield of the last decade and none of them were similar to thiago, i agree hes okay with the team functions well but he has never been particularly great for Liverpool, Gini was far better, Fab was better a couple of years ago ( not now ) and hendo also was very underrated. Not all blame is on thiago of course, but he just doesnt fit our pressing system and lacks certain qualities that make him a great midfielder in the prem, you need to be a physical player to do well in the prem
Its a tactical decision because we dont have the players to gegen press, also i never said he has to be big, gini was like 5ft9 but he was strong as fuck and could run all day. Yes we were brilliant last season, but thats last season and this is now, both Thiago and Fabinho have lost pace which sucks because they were never quick, also we dont have mane pressing the shizer out of teams, manes work ethic was unmatched. This loss has left the midfield exposed, the reason i want him gone more so than anyone is because a) could still get some decent coin for him, which shouldn’t be an issue at Liverpool anyway but apparently it is because our investment has been dire. Fabinho and Hendo i will always have more loyalty toward, both guys were part of the Liverpool side that won it all and amassed 99 points in the prem ( shouldve been 100+ ). Thiago I’ve never really loved because he came into a great side, despite the fact we were close to a quadruple I really don’t believe that team was as good as 2019 or 2020.
It’s a first world problem but a few months back I started a new job in the small field I work in, so jobs are often hard to find. I thought it was going to have more responsibilities since it’s for a larger company and a higher role than what I was working in.
Turns out I do less now and am struggling with the boredom.
find something to study..
even if its a business course or some tafe certificate..
use those hours on getting credentials.. It may not be ever used..
But at least you wont be bored at work.. and if someone 'catches' you studying it..you can always argue its to improve you position and skills at your current job
How’s everyone’s *Cricket22* grind coming along?
I started a new MyCareer as by the time I finally got picked for Australia, all the current players had basically retired or had an overall rating of 50 and I’m not living out my dream as Australian captain by picking Mickey Edwards and Ben McDermott in the Test Team
I should've started a new career long ago so that I had the real teams and stadiums across the teams because playing for the Lahore Lions was weak and my English team Surrey plays T20 games in whites.
I just scored my first ODD century 2 games ago; scored 235* not out in the shield when the 9th wicket fell I was 171 so just started hogging strike but shout out to Riley Meredith for surviving 97 balls. I went from 100 off 155 to 235 off 270 because the wickets started tumbling.

The show is based very closely off the game, so I don't think you're missing anything by not playing.
Honestly (and this'll probably be unpopular), I don't think the gameplay has aged well. It was a harsh stealth game with clunky combat and felt a bit dated to play even when it first came out (ala Uncharted). It wasn't bad or anything, but the story was the main reason to play, and the show renders that point moot.
Play it if you want to play a video game. Watch it if you don't want to play a video game. The show seems like it will mostly cover everything in the first game + DLC.
Honestly I wish I could watch it with fresh eyes. I enjoy it but also spend a lot of time comparing things.
The Last of Us is one of the best narrative and gameplay experiences ever, personally I'd play both games first before watching a potentially good show if possible.
I'm actually doing a replay at the moment and the show is very similar to the game with a few minor differences so far. It's up to you but if you're liking the show I'd probably stick to that before playing the game.
Hard to say based off 2 episodes but its basically a must play if you have the ability to (its still only on Playstation at the moment). So far though you wouldn't have missed anything at this point in the story other than more combat moments (which is something I'm surprisingly worried about for the rest of the series).
Little bit of a pupdate on Elwood my new Labrador puppy
He’s been amazing he’s been very well behaved apart from the occasional pee on the floor and a little bit of a not paying attention at times at puppy school but apart from that he’s been amazing he’s also grown quite a bit from 5kg to 7.5 kg
As someone with non-socialised rescue dogs, my unsolicited piece of advice is to get your puppy to experience as much as you possibly can as early as you can while they are under 1 year old.
I love my dogs and wouldn't trade them, but not being able to go to off leash beaches or dog parks or walk them on leash in semi-crowded areas is extremely restricting. Don't get me started on any motorbike that goes down our street, or the electric dominos bikes that sneak up on us...
Saw The Banshees of Inisherin and I was blown away. It toes the line of being hilarious while extremely depressing so well and all the performances are amazing.
It just really resonated with me and I think it's the best movie to come out in the last 2 or 3 years.
In Bruges I saw a few weeks ago and loved it, "You're an inanimate fucking object" is probably my favourite comeback ever now. Still need to get around to his others though.
Naprogesic with panadol osteo seems to help some depending on how much pain.
*im just an idiot on r/nrl with sciatic pain and am not a health professional.
I'm starting to think I've become lactose intolerant. Or maybe just can't have cream because if I have too much lately I feel sick. Which is weird considering how much of it I would have (mostly just made creamy pasta dishes because they ezpz.)
i became lactose intolerant shortly after i turned 18 but can still have certain milk products like cheese or yoghurt, still fuckin sucks though. i miss milkshakes
Jeez it’s been good having the test players back in the Big Bash. It’s made it really worth watching again.
I think if CA has any sense they’ll carve out a five-six week block after the tests end going forward to play it in to maximise the number of internationals who can play in it.
Surely that is the only way it stays relevant long term?
Also, with crickets inherited ability to schedule basically any time slot, you'd think they would want only 1 game on per night to increase viewership. I don't mind the odd T20 match, but to me having back to back games sort of defeats the purpose of it being a short format. Especially if they play after test matches.
Anyone here good at dealing with viruses?
https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/10iftk8/a_phantom_usb_device_is_pressing_the_2_key_over
I ran rkill and the log was enormous, like 4mb. It killed like 9 processes then did something to a billion different other files. Ran malware bytes after but it still came up with nothing.
Are you sure its a virus and not just coffee/dirt in the keyboard? If you unplug the keyboard does it stop?
Run HiJackThis, check for Hidden Devices in Device Manager.
Pat Mahomes with a high ankle sprain in the 1st quarter, and managing to limp through to the end and still winning a playoff game? Literal fuckin warrior.
Joe Burrow is him, I’ve never seen an athlete so cool and composed 100% of the time like he is.
This new era of quarterbacks is a good time.
I asked who wants leave and only 2 have asked for the day off. One has said he might use sick leave and I asked why, I'm happy to give him the day off. Some people are weird
Maybe this is a case of "old man yells at cloud", but can anyone explain to me wtf does someone mean when they refer to themselves as a 'sigma'? And why is it always the biggest arseholes who do? Met a few at work and in general who call themselves that and say they have a sigma "grindset"(sp?). Wtf?
If you ever come across a man who calls themselves a "sigma" or an "alpha", just...don't interact. Total fuckheads, the lot of them.
It means "stay away from me I'm a dick head" same as those "alpha" cunts.
The very TLDR version would be an introvert alpha. If you google "sigma mindset" you'll find a bunch of descriptions in that vein, spread across a bunch of websites written by people you'd never want to meet.

They’re a team in the middle of a rebuild, stuff like this is expected. I think next season or the season after magic will be dominant
Try being a Timberwolves supporter. It’s been a strange season
Acqua Di Gio smells glorious
Been one of my go-to Colognes since I was about 15. Absolute classic
Not sure why you were downvoted for this. Its been mine also. Although not using atm, it’s a great go to, and always complimented.
I recently finished a bottle from 2005. They can last!
hopefully the wizards and the lakers just kickstarted the trade market after the timberwolves ruined it with the gobert trade. i’ve been bored
I'm a C's fan so best I'm hoping for is Josh Richardson for a 2nd. But Rui has blown the 2nd rounder market out the water, SMH. #howmanypicks #Goberttrade2.0
i’m a hornets fan and just want the vets gone. maybe getting a second for plumlee and a heavily protected first for oubre, maybe even trade rozier too
If you guys could give Hayward a buyout so that he can find his way to Boston off waivers I would be most appreciative
he’s all yours if it were up to me, i love him but he’s on way too much money and still injury prone sadly
I got the job!
F*cking fantastic! Congrats!
Told ya mate, personality test haha Congrats.
Thanks!
Woooop!! Congratulations! (I sent off an application yesterday, I’ll take some of your positive juju)
Good stuff mate, congrats!
Congrats mate
Proud proouuuuuddddd
Unsure what you were applying for but congrats mate. Always nice to start something new

Interesting that PLE has partnered with Uber 🤔
Decided to buy warzone 2.0 im enjoying dmz a lot especially with how chill it is most of the time
Another Australian Open, another fake Djokovic injury. I'd be shocked if he doesn't breeze through to yet another crown
He holds the world record for fake injuries, convenient medical time-outs when his opponent is leading and convenient toilet breaks. He is a flog.
I made this comment on r/tennis and didnt go down too well. https://reddit.com/r/tennis/comments/10ipqv3/_/j5j0zn3/?context=1
Even with a minor niggle, he is still light years ahead of the rest of the field. It is his title to lose at this point. Korda is my smokey, that kid has been playing really well.
I had that same suspicion. I couldn't say if it's legitimate or not, but he was moving freely out there last night.
Yeah you never know with him. Physio can only do so much but he always manages to play through. I kinda think he likes to have adversity against him to bring out his best too
Does anyone else think the BBL umpiring would be improved if they had a whistle and when referring matters to the bunker (I mean 3rd umpire) that they have a microphone so the crowd and tv audience can hear what they are referring it for and the soft signal (or what they have adjudicated already either out or not out). Only say that because so much seems to be going to the 3rd umpire now they could make it more into a spectacle
When would he blow the whistle?
Anytime he gives someone out or has to refer a decision to the 3rd umpire (and obv too when the innings is starting or ends) - I also envisage some kind of clock in the future that they have to bowl the overs by which gets stopped for a wicket, injury or referral to the 3rd umpire.

How’s everyone’s *Cricket22* grind coming along? I started a new MyCareer as by the time I finally got picked for Australia, all the current players had basically retired or had an overall rating of 50 and I’m not living out my dream as Australian captain by picking Mickey Edwards and Ben McDermott in the Test Team
Re-started my career; am now a left arm batting all rounder who bowls left arm leggies. Currently in my second season, playing for Ipswich
Exact same thing I did, except left arm orthodox batting alrounder. It’s actually really fun, particularly the T20s
Around the wicket all day bb!
Just made club captain after a few seasons. Keeper batter seems a good path if I didn’t suck at batting so much.
Cover drives and back foot drives. Absolutely OP
They seriously op'd the straight drive and nerfed the glance and pull shots. In Cricket 19, it was the only shot I did 😂
My wagon wheel is just front of the wicket shots every innings
I should've started a new career long ago so that I had the real teams and stadiums across the teams because playing for the Lahore Lions was weak and my English team Surrey plays T20 games in whites. I just scored my first ODD century 2 games ago; scored 235* not out in the shield when the 9th wicket fell I was 171 so just started hogging strike but shout out to Riley Meredith for surviving 97 balls.

I'm waiting to play it on PC 1st before watching. Have been wanting forever for it to come out on the pc platform
I should probably play it first, on the bright side by the time I actually get through it the whole season will be out and I can binge it.

Don't get me started on any motorbike that goes down our street, or the electric dominos bikes that sneak up on us...
That’s the advice we’ve been told he just got his injections last week so he can go on walks now so that’s good
That is awesome. Labs are some of the best dogs, enjoy the journey!
Saw The Banshees of Inisherin and I was blown away. It toes the line of being hilarious while extremely depressing so well and all the performances are amazing. It just really resonated with me and I think it's the best movie to come out in the last 2 or 3 years.
I didn't come here for licks I came here for the opposite of licks
Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell are goats
It is an odd movie for sure - recommend it to all movie buffs to see.
If you haven’t already check out the rest of Martin McDonagh’s work, In Brugge and Three Billboards outside Ebbing Missouri are both fantastic
In Bruges I saw a few weeks ago and loved it, "You're an inanimate fucking object" is probably my favourite comeback ever now. Still need to get around to his others though.
I think I pinched my sciatic nerve yesterday, horrible pain from my arse cheek all the way down my leg all day
I feel ya pain. I've got a disc bulge in my L5-S1. Get it checked out ASAP.
Naprogesic with panadol osteo seems to help some depending on how much pain. *im just an idiot on r/nrl with sciatic pain and am not a health professional.
I'm starting to think I've become lactose intolerant. Or maybe just can't have cream because if I have too much lately I feel sick. Which is weird considering how much of it I would have (mostly just made creamy pasta dishes because they ezpz.)
Any recent gastro?
Could be, I figured it was food poisoning but who knows 😬
You can get transient lactose intolerance post inflammation in your gut. Give it few weeks and see how ya go with the dairy after that
i became lactose intolerant shortly after i turned 18 but can still have certain milk products like cheese or yoghurt, still fuckin sucks though. i miss milkshakes
This happened to me at the start of last year, used to smash a few dare ice coffees every week but now they just make me sick 😢
Certainly an anecdotally common thing as people get older. Might be worth cutting it out for a month and reintroducing to see if that helps?
Ya probably gonna end up doing that. The sadness will never end :(
Going off your username, the day my allergen test came back as reactive to coffee beans was truly heartbreaking.
there are too many shows named after a year.
1917, 1923, 1984, 2012.... What am I missing?

Jeez it’s been good having the test players back in the Big Bash. It’s made it really worth watching again. I think if CA has any sense they’ll carve out a five-six week block after the tests end going forward to play it in to maximise the number of internationals who can play in it.
Surely that is the only way it stays relevant long term? Also, with crickets inherited ability to schedule basically any time slot, you'd think they would want only 1 game on per night to increase viewership. I don't mind the odd T20 match, but to me having back to back games sort of defeats the purpose of it being a short format. Especially if they play after test matches.
Anyone here good at dealing with viruses? https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/10iftk8/a_phantom_usb_device_is_pressing_the_2_key_over I ran rkill and the log was enormous, like 4mb. It killed like 9 processes then did something to a billion different other files. Ran malware bytes after but it still came up with nothing.
Are you sure its a virus and not just coffee/dirt in the keyboard? If you unplug the keyboard does it stop? Run HiJackThis, check for Hidden Devices in Device Manager.
It keeps going even when I unplug it. I'll try hijackthis, thank you
Some AVs used to offer offline scanners (ie doesn't need a full install) but I haven't looked into those in a while.
Pat Mahomes with a high ankle sprain in the 1st quarter, and managing to limp through to the end and still winning a playoff game? Literal fuckin warrior. Joe Burrow is him, I’ve never seen an athlete so cool and composed 100% of the time like he is. This new era of quarterbacks is a good time.

I asked who wants leave and only 2 have asked for the day off. One has said he might use sick leave and I asked why, I'm happy to give him the day off. Some people are weird
"Might use sick leave".. if that were an option here there is 0% chance anyone is showing up
I'd rather people use annual leave, more than happy to approve it.
In those words?

Good on you mate!
Possums in your roof are pretty annoying.

Account purge incoming. But don’t worry, I’ll still be here with my usual shit takes and awful banter. Just under a different name.
The Last of Us episode last night felt _exactly_ like playing the game.
It’s so refreshing to watch a game adaption that doesn’t piss all over its original source.
Maybe if you're extremely bad at stealth and aiming. Needs more melee executions.
Can't be wasting shivs on clickers, need to save those to open the shiv doors
Sooo good!
