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.

It popped up for me too on their unlimited plan. I clicked the X and went on with my life.

Perhaps they should start a gofundme or something.

My car insurance went up $1200 this year, which blows my mind. No reason given.

Kind of like jobs. If you stay with the same company for more than a couple years, you're probably doing yourself a disservice.

They need very little water. Especially during winter. Seconding everything on the other comment too. I would repot them with fresh, well draining soil and if you see anything squishy and brown, cut it off. If you have to cut on the roots, leave it out for a day before putting it back in soil to let the cut callus over. Snake plants are tough, they won't mind.

Depending on your local climate, they would probably make better indoor plants. They'll tolerate low light areas that other plants won't.

One of my mom's that exploded the pot it was growing in. I wish I had got a better picture.

Squeeze a third of the bottle into the trash, replace missing portion with Underwood ranches Sriracha, shake well and squirt on anything edible.

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.

Really depends on the game/story and if I like the characters. For example playing Fallout 4 as a female protagonist felt out of place, like it was just a mod that someone hacked in. But on the other side Cyberpunk 2077's male character annoyed me enough that I restarted as female V. And then there's games like Skyrim where the only difference I notice is the grunts you make in combat.

They're both varieties of Sansevieria (Snake Plant). Super easy to care for as long as you can refrain from watering them all the time.

He built most of an AK receiver (the federally regulated part in the US) out of a shovel but probably 90% of the gun (by mass) was off the shelf AK parts. And he has decent tools. But it's still pretty impressive.

Here's one of the original threads.. It has cats!

Last month I got an email from us@sofirnlight.com titled "Help Us Test Our New Products!" asking if I was interested in testing a new product and providing honest feedback. I've bought a few of their lights that I was happy with so I was glad to provide feedback (I assume that's where they got my email).

They replied with some instructions to search a specific term on amazon, send a screenshot where that item showed up in the listings, buy it, and send them the receipt for reimbursement.

It sounded like they were trying to game amazon, but they're a shit company so I didn't care. After sending them everything they requested (twice), it's been over a month with no reply. Before they would reply within 24 hours.

So if you see this email, ignore it. Or take your chances; Just make sure you return it before the window is up. And say it's a defect with the light, so you're not out for the return shipping.

Below are the emails.

I have a Voxelab Aguila that I am about to install Klipper on. I also have a SKR E3 Turbo board left over from another printer.

Would it be worth installing the SKR board? Or will it not make any difference since the Pi is doing all the processing anyways?

 

According to the incident report, officers were called to a domestic disturbance/possible shooting in the 10900 block of SW 30th St. just before 2 a.m. Wednesday.

When they arrived, they found Deputy Jordan Reed Cannon shot to death.

Officials say she and her husband, Deputy Vaughn Cannon, were in a heated argument when Vaugh shot and killed Jordan.
