Microcenter doesn’t sell fridges, unfortunately. However, I have been pretty pleased with them since Fry’s is out of then picture. That was a rough couple of years.
Some less tired viewers have correctly pointed out that the “warranty” was added for a price and discounted in the cart, as well as free delivery. Perhaps, if you don’t find the UI misleading like I did, this isn’t a bad thing.
Back when they introduced their marketplace, I found an extremely good deal. Thinking it was too good to be true, but cheap enough to say “what the heck,” I bought it anyway. Fast forward a week and I received a completely different item than what was described (no surprise, to be honest) in the listing. Naturally, I reached out to customer service for a refund because the item I received was not as advertised. To my surprise, Newegg refused to refund me the whole amount even though they acknowledged the listing was essentially a scam, so I back charged through my credit card. Then, they banned my account. I had been an avid supporter of the company and built many computers from things purchased there, up until that complete joke of a refund process.
Newegg died the day they sold out way back in the 2010s, screw that horrible customer service.
m the same IP address? Cause some places check for that kind of thing.
Yep, didn’t bother playing any games, same IP.
Howdy! There’s some engagement for yah
I really enjoyed your explanation, thanks for the effortpost
Thanks for making it easy for the rest of us.
This makes it feel even more bleak. Where is all this money coming from?! Who is funding this and how?
Glad I can shove more things into the same physical space. I can’t wait until HAMR is ready next!
Ruby! It’s a wonderful language with a fantastic community, mature frameworks, and active development on performance and core features.
I’m 100% with you on that. I have filtered out so many communities because I get frustrated seeing the same shit posted to every iteration of a stupid news community. It’s exhausting to try and see things once.
I don’t think titles directly transfer between companies, and yet the industry allows it. It’s a very useful tool for advancement.
Time on the job does not equate to skill. Some jobs force you to figure shit out that other jobs simply never expose you to. Other jobs expose you to lots of busywork and that isn’t going to make you a better engineer either.
I’ve met senior engineers with 3 years that are significantly more useful than senior engineers with 10 years. Individual motivation and willingness to learn matter the most to me.
I have used the ladder to my advantage and advise others to do the same. It’s a game, you don’t win by not playing.
Neat! Thanks for sharing
Connect for lemmy works great for me so far. Though it doesn’t support wide screens very well.
Oh for sure, they really went to crap the last few years.
