This is the most uplifting video I have and is something I'm needed right now. I've contributed more than a few handfuls of views over the years.

I hope it brings joy to you as it does to me... ..I mean, Just check out their faces, y'all!

[Pt2] He is very level headed and I love the depth of research @dancarlin.bsky.social does for each ep. He shares lists of primary and secondary sources/research on his website. Some eps are free, but consider supporting a high quality podcaster if you get hooked like I did, lol! ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ“œ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
- WW1: Blueprint for Armageddon IV (1:40:00 preamble; 1:50 battle of Jutland).
- WW2: Supernova in the East IV (battle of the Coral Sea and Midway) www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdEk...

On podcast apps & his website, archiveorg may have some. Consider buying tho...-> pt2

This certainly fits and makes sense.

In a universe of super powered ship phasers and photon torpedoes, I figure it's also a benefit to have a strong shield generator.

Total aside - Dan Carlin's history podcast has some great recaps of old battleship battles I can recommend if interested.

iirc, the Enterprise is one of Starfleet's most powerful spacecraft and often patrolling the Neutral Zone.

Starfleet for the most part seems to not want to escalate despite supporting the occasional spy mission. Many precarious destabilizing situations /w Klingons, Romulans, + unknowns of the Borg.

Ah dude that's rough... As a last ditch hope, you might double check the gpu connection. I had some scary issues similar to what you describe + a GPU fan going from 0-100. I pulled out the GPU, reconnected, and tighten the support beam and it was good again.

๐Ÿ™hope it's something like that man.

As an industry, or group of people in games, we should discuss what this term, Junior, means to us. For me, this is a first step into a career in game development. For larger studios I don't know...

I know companies often have different internal job codes/levels but why not just search for a 'regular' Sound Designer?๐Ÿคท

The whole thing feels like a strange bit of mental-professional gymnastics. I can't help but see it as a way to keep salaries lower, but
that may be too myopic and simple..
