Switches are a beginner level solder job to replace. And because there's not much going on inside mice, it tends to be easy to get to the PCB that holds the switches.

(Sorry for the late response, I hadn't checked my replies all week) Companies in the US can put limits on consecutive vacation days. Both jobs I've had in the financial industry had a limit of 7 business days. While not impossible

Or he was watching TV or playing video games. I don’t mean to make it sound like that’s common for people who work from home but it does seem more likely to me than working 2 jobs at once.

There really need to be rules in place to prevent these ticking time bombs that are cheap devices with 0 safety considerations or QA from being brought onto planes.

Pads should be easily replaceable on all headphones. They are the part that wears out the fastest.

That’s good to know. I had bad experiences with MSI hardware a decade ago so I didn’t go back to them. I will try their boards the next time I upgrade

The difference is that going forward, people will target the latest changes to Windows because the previous versions will decline in usage since they are seeing no more effort put in by MS. With a situation like Xorg vs Wayland people will

Yes! Don't neglect vacation time and be sure to take a proper vacation. None of this "I'll be gone but I'm still reachable" bullshit. Lie and say you won't have access to a computer if that's what it takes

To just about any business, unless you have a very close relationship with the owner, you really are just another expense. If they think they're losing more money on you than they're earning and that the benefit won't even be

Your expectations of Discord match with mine. None of my friends or guildies use it as anything else.

4 digit discriminants aren't unique to Discord. Battle.net also uses them.

Still a net gain for the company. Getting something from them for free means you are costing them money. And I would bet your word of mouth was also worth negative dollars to them since you're going to be telling people about the free

> fountain pens are still used a lot in Japan I ended up getting a Japanese notebook for that reason. I think the one I got may still have been a step up in quality from what's standard there, but it was a leap up from the generic U

I actually do expect a lot of printer papers to be fine. But typical notebook paper turns the lines into a mess.

I hate when people do this kind of purge on Reddit instead of just deleting the account and letting the comments stay. So much useful information has been destroyed thanks to these tools. I'm glad that dang does not allow this to happe

I got into fountain pens for a while. One big problem with them is that you really need paper that's designed for them. A lot of common paper ends up wicking out the ink way too fast. But they are still pretty cool writing implements.

Instead you get arbitrary bias without multiple sources you can check. If there is a shitty source that comes up in a normal web search, I can skip it and go to the ones I know are better. How do I do something similar with ChatGPT? Am I su

Are these what you consider NSFW? Your job would have to be assistant to the pope for your workplace to be offended by these.

I've seen a lot of positivity on the output of ChatGPT for coding tasks in my workplace. And it does seem to have some use in that area. But there is just no way in hell it's replacing a human in its current state. If you ask it f

It's a project that lets you piggyback off of others' ChatGPT API keys without their permission? If so, then it seems like it would violate both OpenAI's ToS as well as the ToS for any site that is being used as a proxy. And

Good lord yes. I subscribed to the Wall Street Journal for a bit, but then ended up low on cash and needing to cut back on spending. Of all the subscriptions I stopped at that time, they were the most annoying. Because, even though I was ab

I agree. I was really hoping this would go through so Microsoft had some chance to keep Activision Blizzard from destroying itself. Dragonflight has been one of the best WoW expansions and yet the dev team continues to lose talent due to te

If you are missing curl.exe, the System File Checker may be able to restore it. Worth giving sfc /scannow a shot.

Stopping antidepressants without tapering can be deadly too. Serotonin syndrome is a real issue.

I don't know if any evidence exists anymore to properly back this up, but I've heard that the creator first went to Digg with the same claim about making it for them.

The idea of using Bitcoin or Ethereum to pay for anything always seemed insane to me. I don't want my info about payments I've made to be public, espcially not in a form where, by design, it will never disappear!

This is why I hate them too. You can use a custom length + pointer type for representing strings in your own code, but interfacing with other libraries and the OS almost always requires having a null-terminated string. It forces you to make

It's not just Windows that it's worse on though. It doesn't perform well on macOS either. It's not as bad as it used to be when it had a horrible power draining interaction with display scaling on macOS, but it's st
