you can put me on ignore like you boast quite a few members are

Tangential, but I honestly cannot fathom why people use that function. Well, I can obviously, but it still amazes me. No matter matter how wile I thought a person was (which I never think) I cannot even imagine myself using that function. It's not how life works.

I'm still interested to know at least how much work this will be. Because reasons I can only legally work a few hours a day. I doubt I'll even try for this, but still.

Awesome opportunity for someone! TechPowerUp is one of the world's most respected publications and I swear by it

Good luck to everyone!

Should go for it yourself dude

Dux · Aug 10, 2016

Well, i might go for it. Been a long time lurker here on TPU, but joined the forums recently. I also finished my IT help desk specialist education this year and passed several certification exams, so i'll give it a try.

I hope I didn't scare w1zzard away by writing my first piece about mobile, and my second about a somewhat "dated" practice...

Any good candidates yet, my man?

Whoever gets chosen, please do not interject your opinion on it unless you actually know what you are talking about

. Wait, am I embarrassing myself by saying that in public?

Good luck TPU! I know you have some pretty knowledgeable people in your general populous that can keep em coming!

we need to get Filip from NPU to put news up for us -- I like his incoherent style of posting on NPU

At TechPowerUp we are currently looking for one additional news editor to strengthen our ranks.

This probable means Bt is Still on the Team ( or to look at it another way Bt gets a Gofer/Apprentice)
" Roll up and Apply"

I always have found Filip to inject too much opinion into what should be news articles, but maybe that's just me... or maybe they do that on purpose.

I dont think he injects much of anything apart from typo's, bad grammar & occasionally bad information. But I like the guy because when i tried to correct some of his articles on NPU he deliberately marked them down as spam so they wouldn't appear on the site.

zithe · Aug 10, 2016

Seems a bit odd. Surely it would be better for him to correct them and leave them up?

There are always some hateful muppets who have nothing better to do and the smartasses that like to bring that up here. If they want to make fools of themselves in public I'm fine with that. Thankfully the vast majority of the members are decent and it's those that I'm referring to.

Does that clarify it for you now?

i enjoyed your news & style as you dropped in different stuff (haters said many had nothing in common with this site approach....but at low level had....maybe was to hard for them to digest the info... )

hope you jump in back m8!

almost forget... my answer to your avatar question is: jupiter from south pole

in space is no above

I want to try but my grammar suck.

Assimilator · Aug 11, 2016

I'd apply but (a) I'm lazy (b) I'm excessively verbose.
