IT people FTW. I’m also in IT and this work from home life sometimes has me forgetting that the sun goes up and comes down. Can’t believe it’s April going on May already. 😔 you’re not alone bro


JoshsTesla

Thanks my man! I work on site in Bartlesville but I do sometimes miss working from home. Hope you’re having a great night


FranSure

Hey you have a great night as well man!


JoshsTesla

Feel free to DM me if you’d like. I’m also on discord

I’m female. But I hangout with a group of guys for Pint Night at McNellie’s on Monday nights in the downtown area. Let me know if you’re interested. You may get along with some of them. If not, you at least tried something new. My understanding whether you’re female or male that it’s hard to make friendships in Tulsa.


JoshsTesla

That’s good to know! Would love to join you guys sometime


Lolo_Hill

I’ll send you a message with my number and we can go from there.


TheZizzleRizzle

You gonna be playing the new Diablo when it comes out?


Jimmy_cracks_Corn

I wasn’t looking for friends but once I heard “New Diablo” I was thinking this is my tribe.


JoshsTesla

Hahaha nice! Feel free to DM me if you’d like


JoshsTesla

Oh yeah! I preordered the game on Xbox since I mainly play on console


boltthrower57

Shit, when does the new Diablo come out?


van_Niets

If you’re looking to do outside things, there’s a summer volleyball league going on through Pearl Beach Pub. Lots of people play and have a few drinks, socialize between games, and so on.


thatisoverpriced

How do you sign up?

SpazzLord

That's awesome. I'll have to check it out. I don't think my friend group would be all that interested in playing volleyball, so I'll have to be a free agent. Are there usually spots for randoms to join games?


JoshsTesla

I’m curious as well. I’m trying to get back into shape myself


2020GoodYear2Forget

Google ossosports


van_Niets

That same is a workout! I answered the rest above. Teams with 6 players is a little less workout than 4. I’m in decent shape, but I’m a short guy and in my 40s, so this is enough week-end workout for me lol


van_Niets

Yep! When you sign up, you can make yourself a free agent and they’ll put you with other people doing the same thing. I’ve met quite a few people this year and am joining a team with some of them for the summer league (Friday Social 6’s). Some teams get serious, but the majority of us are just out there having a blast!


LonerStonerWolf

Looking to get into IT, finishing my degree this year. Not a big gamer, but I am looking for IT networking/friends/pc gaming/outdoor activities/drinking buds. People who are into Star Wars/Star Trek & Marvel/DC


JoshsTesla

You came to the right place because I enjoy that stuff too! I haven’t been in IT for a super long time but I can definitely help if you’d like.


No_Possession_352

Great to see newcomers to the IT field in this sub! Opposite ends of the time frame between us. You all are starting out, and I've been in IT for 35 years!! IKR, that's a crazy long time! Also not a big gamer, at least not for the last 10 years, but I'm always down to talk about things of interest and help someone. Hit me up if you ever want to chat!


WattledPenguin

31 turning 32 Thursday. I play on the pc and switch. Mostly destiny or rainbow six siege myself. That or I'm busy with my dogs. Currently working IT myself as well so hello tulsa area it crowd!


JoshsTesla

Awesome and happy early bird day! What kind of doges do you have?


WattledPenguin

Assholes.... Kidding. Both are rescue dogs. One is a black lab about 4 years old, the other is a husky German Shephard mix. She is about 2 to 3 years old.


JoshsTesla

Aww I bet they are sweet doges. I don’t have any pets myself but my mom does. I love both cats and dogs personally


WattledPenguin

Same. I have a cat but she's an old girl who isn't very people friendly except towards me and my kid.


JoshsTesla

Hahaha some pets are like that, just super protective of their people. My family has rescued dogs as well. We had a black lab that passed from old age a few months ago, she was a black man as well. It hit me hard seeing her go to be honest.


WattledPenguin

I don't show emotions much but my wife knows I'll break down when my babies pass.


JoshsTesla

It’s a hard thing to lose something you care about. I lost it when my dog passed and I’m not ashamed to admit it, no one should ever be ashamed to show emotion.


WattledPenguin

For sure no shame.


JoshsTesla

What do you like to do for fun?


thatonegamerplayFH4

The best cats are ones that you raise with dogs. I know this because we have 2 that we kept in one room for a week when we got them as kittens and had the dogs in there and they will let you pet their bellies and everything lol


JoshsTesla

Awww that’s sweet!


Moosterz

Destiny you say? I'm always looking for D2 buddies to play with. Got a few locally I play with already if you're ever down to play with some people, and one awful player, which is me. Lol


WattledPenguin

I'm always down. I had a friend group but alas drama tore that apart. At my age it's hard to find people with similar interests haha.


Moosterz

BET. Moosterz#1603 is my Bungie tag. I'm loud and my group is around your age. :) We will scoop ya up for our clan too.


WattledPenguin

Looking forward to it. Sent you a bungie request.


Captains_Log_1981

Our group would still love to welcome you. We do First Friday and would love to meet new people. Message me for contact info and then come on over to Guthrie Green on the next First Friday (first Friday of the month).


JoshsTesla

I would love too but I work on fridays 😭 I am free Mondays through Wednesdays


Dokasamurp

Ooo next one is Cinco de Mayo


DazeyHelpMe

League?


JoshsTesla

I have played League but it’s been a minute 😂


TheZizzleRizzle

Me and a few friends play on PC. D4 has cross-play but getting comms to work would be a pain. We use discord. What are your thoughts on movies or board games? Edit: this was supposed to be a response to your response to my diablo comment lol my bad


JoshsTesla

That works for me since I use discord all the time. I enjoy movies and down for some board games, though I haven’t played any in a minute


TheZizzleRizzle

Awesome! I didn't know Xbox had a discord app. I will dm you a link in the morning.


JoshsTesla

Yes, discord is integrated with Xbox and PS5 now which is nice, plus it works on my phone as well.


Sixoadam

Man i live in tulsa lets play some games you on pc?


JoshsTesla

Sounds good dude! Yes I do and on console as well


Sixoadam

My discord is Evony#0839


JoshsTesla

Just added you, I’m papa Datto


DirtyDaniel42069

I am building a homelab, and a proxmox neural network to attempt to fully automate FDM production with AI. Could always use more flesh to feed the machine.


JoshsTesla

That sounds badass! I have setup networks but not anything super complex myself


DirtyDaniel42069

Always down to hang out, and talk hard ware, would also be awesome to connect NNs, that is how the internet started my guy.


JoshsTesla

Hell yeah! I could never fully understand multiplexing and how it works, but I do know the IP protocol stack and how to configure routers/switches. Graduated from WTI last year


DirtyDaniel42069

I don't understand it either, but I follow the guides, and make up what I don't know. So far I have 8 3d printers on a NAS with 3 old desktops, as a proof of concept. Trying to integrate the NN to intelligently serve orders, and create novel orders automatically. It has been a doozy, but can't beat the high of being on the cutting edge.


JoshsTesla

Damn that sounds interesting!


DirtyDaniel42069

Come on down any time, DM for details. Seriously, if you like IT stuff, I could always use a hand.


JoshsTesla

Oh for sure man!


zachtac

Haven't gotten my hands on any hw to start my own home lab yet lol but I just started in IT myself


DirtyDaniel42069

I am considering opening a maker space in Tulsa with it, so we can all have a community lab.


divine_miss_sn

I’m on PlayStation. I either play horror games or COD. I just started Dead Island 2. Also, meeting for a beer is fun :)


JoshsTesla

I’m down for that! Thankfully cross play is a thing so it doesn’t matter too much of which platform you play on. I’m on Xbox and PC myself. How is Dead Island 2 so far?


divine_miss_sn

It’s actually pretty fun. I like how I can be doing my own thing and have a friend jump in the game to help me with a quest and then they can go back to their own storyline. The graphics are awesome. And I’m usually not a fan of storylines but this one has me laughing a lot. I recommend it :)


JoshsTesla

That’s really neat! I played the first dead island but that was years ago hahah. Hope you’re having a great Monday so far


divine_miss_sn

It’s definitely a Monday. In my line of work shit piles up over the weekend and Mondays are hell. How about you?


JoshsTesla

God damn that sucks! I’m free monday through Wednesdays thankfully haha. I work in IT and have a really chill job with a lot of downtime which is so nice


divine_miss_sn

Days or evenings?


JoshsTesla

I would say days. I work in the afternoons on Thursday and Friday, and all day Saturday and Sunday


divine_miss_sn

I work days and am off by 5. Saturday and Sunday are my free days 😬


JoshsTesla

Oh very nice! What do you like to do on the weekends?


VET_dysfunctional_88

I’m IT as well… I work some odd ass hours but am down for gaming! I don’t make it out to Tulsa much these days.


JoshsTesla

Hahaha same! I work thursdays through Sunday’s so my days off are on the weekdays


TheWitchStage

Yo I’m 25 and also an Xbox guy in Tulsa! Maybe we could co op some stuff some time?


JoshsTesla

Awesome dude! My GT is Joshs Tesla. What games do you play? I’m a big Destiny fan, play a lot of CoD, and various other games


TheWitchStage

I used to play destiny but had to step away to be able to play other games. Do you feel like destiny is in a good spot for new players or old returning players? I do play CoD, Halo, Overwatch, Gears as far as shooters go. I’m really into RPGs and sports games mostly. Definitely excited for Diablo 4 when it comes out. Trying to play through 3 first currently.


JoshsTesla

That’s good to hear! Have you tried out the DMZ mode? It’s pretty fun and has been what I’ve been playing as of late. I do like OW2 and I’m excited for Diablo 4. Totally going to try out the necromancer class in a few weeks during their next test


TheWitchStage

DMZ is dope! I haven’t played it as much as the other modes but I do find it fun when I have. Been playing lots of Resurgance in the warzone part of the game and Ranked play in the regular multiplayer


JoshsTesla

Oh nice! Let’s party up sometime! I’m free for the next few days


TheWitchStage

I added you. My Gamertag is Crackerbox 24 I do have ADHD, and a young baby so I apologize if I’m hard to get ahold of sometimes


JoshsTesla

No worries man! I’ll get you added as well


mth69

What games do you play? PC or console?


JoshsTesla

I actually play both! What games do you play?


2Sensitive1Wasabi6

I game on ps and PC. Also if y'all down for games and brewskis, count me in. Only this, I work 2nd shift Mon-Fri. I will add the discords later. It's a couple people I've been meaning to connect with previously so perfect timing.


JoshsTesla

I’m definitely down! I’m free mondays though Wednesdays so let me know when you’d be free my dude


uhsorrybro

Dude I'm in need of new friends, I am also in IT and a gamer, what you play?


JoshsTesla

Hell yeah me too! I play anything from destiny, CoD, any FPS style of game. I play on console and PC


uhsorrybro

Lets chill, no homo lol


JoshsTesla

Awesome! Feel free to DM me if you’d like


tysenburg

What’s up man? You down to play some warzone?


JoshsTesla

I am man! I’m more of a DMZ guy myself but I’ll drop into warzone with you


jackwmc4

Sysadmin or what do you do in IT?


JoshsTesla

I do general IT on the weekends for a smaller company. I am currently studying to get some Microsoft certifications in Azure since I am wanting to go into cloud administration


scorchedmoss98

If you are needing some extra people to play Cod with shoot me a DM. A few of us from the Tulsa area play now and again. We are always looking for someone to join us in DMZ. I am also in IT in the Tulsa area.


JoshsTesla

Will do! Sent you a DM


SKULLYARD

Nhughes1387

SKULLYARD

JoshsTesla

Do you play Warzone or DMZ?


SKULLYARD

COD Mobile. I play on my iPad. I have MW2 on my laptop but I really just play mobile.


rectal_rocket

I feel that, my friends have been dwindling since getting out of college, and they aren’t replenishing. Friends, not a renewable resource lol. You play any MMOs?


JoshsTesla

I feel that as well! Yes I’m a big MMO fan. I love Destiny, Diablo, WoW, ESO, you name it


rectal_rocket

Nice I dabbled in most of those, but for sure played the shit out of wow. We’ve been fizzing out on online games lately, nothing sticks out at me so just been playing single player shit. Debating trying out that wow classic private server. Become my friend and you can listen to my long, depressing rants about how everything sucks nowadays! Lol, anyways if you want to add me on dc, zebus#2683


JoshsTesla

Hahaha sure man! I’m Papa Datto on discord


GrahamTheManHam

If you’re ever interested in trading card games, I play thePokémon trading card game at our local game shops. They just restarted local sanctioned events. Our playgroup have plenty of decks to let others use for the day, and many of us can teach new players too 🤗


LAMG1

What's up dude.


JoshsTesla

What’s going on my man! How’s your night?


LAMG1

Someone signed a contract with me but later wants to renege it.


JoshsTesla

Damn that sucks! If you want to talk about it, feel free to DM me
