It’s one of the messier options but it still works well. The switches in my logitech g604 have been bounce free for over a year now after hosing then down with WD-40. That’s longer than any of the warranty replacement mice lasted.

Deoxit leaves a residue, too, that will stain clothes. That residue is what helps the contacts from oxidizing again in the future.

Yeah alcohol works well. WD-40. too.

That is kind of just how non hall effect thumb sticks are. But I’ve had great luck with Deoxit D5. You have to take apart the controller so you can squirt it directly into the switch itself but as long as it’s not a mechanical problem like a weak spring, the Deoxit usually gets it working like new.

Same here. Everything worked pretty much right out of the box with Nobara. And my total linux experience in the last decade is running Mint on my work laptop the last 3 months. I tried to switch over to linux gaming in the late 00s, but it was far too much work then. I spent more time getting X3 to work then I ever did playing it. Completely different experience these days.

Works with amazon too. Even if something is legitimately still under warranty and it breaks, it’s usually far less hassle just to buy another and return the broke one for a refund.

No, it isn’t about bad aim. And regardless how or why it happens, it’s about not being a disgusting person and cleaning up your own mess.

Is it actually illegal? Has anyone in the US ever been charged for selling digital software they had legally acquired?

Once they get so crusty they can stand on their own. That’s about 8 hours in shoes, or a week next to the bed.

It’s under Settings -> Blocks -> then down at the bottom is the block instances option.

You can on instances running .19 or newer. Settings -> Blocks -> then at the bottom is an option for blocking instances.

Delivery driver threw pizza at suspects during attempted carjacking

"your pizza delivery driver is probably the bravest guy in the world,” one resident said. “He deserves all the applause that he can get.”

No thanks to the worthless ass cops:

Middletown Police attempted to stop the vehicle, but it continued until it reached New Haven. Once in New Haven, police said, the vehicle stopped and four people got out and fled. A police K9 track was conducted, but they did not find any suspects.

Seconding ThinkPad. Excellent linux support as well.

I thought it was James May.

plumbing-safe wet wipes

That’s usually a lie. But as long as it’s a rent house, it’s fine.

Wet wipes, one of those foam wheel cleaners that goes on a drill, the neighbors dog. Your imagination is the limit.

Neither dry paper nor a stream of warm water is going to clean human shit off. If you aren’t using soap and some sort of scrubbing action, it still smells like shit.

Pre-shower poopers unite!

I’ve always felt being on the fediverse was antithetical to Beehaw’s mission. It wants to bee a kind, safe place for disenfranchised users, but it feels like less of a tight knit community when it is federated.

The best example I can think of is like a high-school club/group. Being on the fediverse is like your group claiming a table in a crowded lunch room. Yes you’ve got your group together where you can talk amongst yourselves, but everything you say can be heard by everyone else in the room and likewise their conversations are going to butt in whether you like it or not. An unfederated or semi-private forum is more like getting an unused classroom for your group to meet in. It’s still open for anyone to join as long as they don’t create trouble, but having your own room makes the conversation feel more personal/intimate and people are more likely to open up about personal stuff they wouldn’t want to yell out in the lunch room.

Probably a poor analogy, and I may be misunderstanding their goal, but that’s my 2 cents.

MarioKart starts getting violent later in the evening once the liquor is flowing.
