Great review of several high end mice, wired and wireless. He found no correlation between wires and latency. Ultimately, he concludes that the most important properties of the mouse are weight and feel.
I don’t like the feeling of the cable dragging on the desk. Or the cable snagging on the monitor stand, or anything else on the desk.
I also prefer the aesthetics of a wireless mouse. One less cable to manage. The charge cable is tucked away and only comes out every week or so to charge overnight.
Yeah, my keyboard has a cable but my keyboard doesn’t move, and it’s a pretty sexy (and heavy) cable so it’s different than a mouse cable.
As for latency, from what I understand in many cases a wireless mouse can have less latency than some wired mice. So that’s nice too.
I guess the main downside is weight but that has never bothered me. That said, I’m not a competitive fps player, but even so some wireless mice are quite light.
I prefer turning off all the breakers in my house, but whatever floats your boat!
Exact same over here. I don’t want an online account. I just don’t. I never will. I’d used Linux desktop a few times in the past but gaming was always bringing me back to windows. Finally my windows machine broke for no reason and after weeks of not being able to fix it I just installed Linux on top of it. Haven’t considered going back.
I know what you mean. My Linux machine breaks all the time but every time it’s my fault lol
I agree with everything except a wireless mouse. I have a magnetic usb “nub” that plugs into the mouse so when I need to charge it every couple of weeks it’s as simple as moving the mouse near enough the magnetic cable and it pops into place.
For me, the benefits of a wireless mouse far outweigh the imperceptible-to-me lag from the 2.4ghz dongle 10cm away in clear view. The only downside I can see is the weight of the battery, but I’m not a competitive FPS player so I’m good.
I’ve heard of people serious about coffee who use sugar. How much do you use? I’ve also seen people brew with sugar right in with the coffee grounds - do you do that or do you add it to your cup?
One of the hardest things to let go of when I gave up smoking pot was rolling joints. The ritual was so calming, and after several decades, a huge part of my life. But preparing a pour over coffee is so similar to that: wetting a paper, grinding, strong smells, heat. Not to mention the flavours of the different strains and the tinkering with the process to get the most out of your “stuff”. Only now I don’t bumble on like an idiot for 3 hours!
Nice. I quit smoking weed and reduced my alcohol intake to near zero a few years ago. To make up for all of the lost ritual, I dove deep into coffee brewing. It’s the only part of my day that I have complete control over and I love that.
I will try those beans! Thanks for the tip.

Here is an AI generated summary.
The host, C, tests various USB-C cables, including an original MacBook cable, a certified 240W Apple cable, and a Thunderbolt 4 cable.
The original MacBook cable can handle up to 100W and operates at USB 2.0 speeds (480 Mbps).
The original cable is identified as an active USB PD cable, capable of 20V and 5A, but lacks support for USB 3 or 4.
The 240W rated cable also operates at USB 2.0 speeds and can handle up to 48V and 5A, indicating suitability for higher power delivery.
Both cables are confirmed to be genuine Apple products with similar vendor IDs, and their condition is noted to be in good health.
Limitations of the tested cables regarding data transfer capabilities are highlighted, while their charging potential is emphasized.
The speaker discusses testing various Thunderbolt cables, confirming compatibility and correct functionality.
Performance metrics for the Thunderbolt cables include a data speed of 40 Gbps and a charging power of 100 watts, with a warning about a “shorted pin.”
The cables claim to support USB 4 capabilities, with technical details provided about voltage and amperage ratings.
All tested cables are operational for charging a MacBook, though a more powerful charger and cable may be necessary for higher power demands.
For me it’s the instant messaging apps like Messenger. Convincing folks to switch to Signal just for me feels evangelical somehow.
Anyone have a TLDW?
Zathura, although it can be a little challenging to navigate on your first few goes.
Prologue is an iOS app that can play audiobooks from a Plex library. I didn’t know they were working on ABS compatibility but that would be great. As much as I love ABS, Prologue is far more polished.
Yeah, that’s a good point but I am very skeptical that Nintendo roms are going to be lost forever. Some of the popular sites are getting hit, but this has been happening for decades. Soon enough there will be a new site that makes it easy, and there will always be Usenet and private trackers that are far more robust.
While this is true I would recommend choosing just a few of your favourite games from each console, in which case you can probably fit your all time fav games from every Nintendo console on a 256gb SD card, and probably a 32GB for all you faves pre Wii.
As someone who has an overwhelmingly large ROM library, I often find I have nothing to play because my library is too large.
As a 36 year old who smoked almost daily from the age of 13 until 33, I can tell you that there are a lot of benefits to not smoking.
