Again, the issue is the scar tissue. Even if it didn’t develop into a cancer it will give you nasty COPD, gas exchange doesn’t happen with scarred lung tissue. Look at silicosis, potters lung, popcorn lung, and the plethora of other occupational diseases that are caused by particulate matter damaging lung tissue for examples of what asbestos would do without the cancer

We need a drive that’s at least… Three times this size!

Reddragon, and just pull parts from goodwill mice, they send you extra Teflon pads with the mouse so you can open it and keep the pads nice. Switches are just switches, they are standard sizes, and the cords usually use standard plugs, worst case you swap some pins around to match. Insanely easy to take apart, and cheap enough to not worry about breaking.

They are cheap as hell, but they have good tracking sensors and are really comfortable to use.

Second best. The best is actually the reddragon one that’s $20 on Amazon.

I have used every mmo mouse on the market (currently on a scimitar elite, it’s the one op has but silver not yellow) and they are all decent mice, but each has a fatal flaw except the reddragon.

G600 click switches are awful and double click after weeks of use, I had to replace them twice, the final time with the switches out of the red dragon. That was fine for close to 10 years, but the side key caps fall off, they are barely glued on.

The scimitar has an awful encoder on the scroll wheel, I had to open the mouse to pack it with Vaseline to get it working properly, and disassembling the scimitar is a nightmare.

The reddragon has bad software, but it’s also supported by open source options for remapping and RGB, so it’s one flaw was by far the easiest to fix.

The g600 was the most comfortable to palm, but the side keys are in an awkward spot to palm the mouse, the scimitar is nice for the adjustable keypad, but it moves with time and tightening it too much will break the mouse. The red dragon has an odd texture on the far side, very rough, but otherwise the best for a claw grip.

That and they turned off bot detection in osrs. Dude headed gambling corporations, I don’t trust him.

Not even bad credit, some banks will debank you for a variety of arbitrary reasons. You need an address, usually have to have regular income, and have to have all of your documents at a minimum, but if you end up in CHEX for any reason (like telling a bank to fuck themselves for almost $400 in overdraft fees that were their fault in the first place) you get denied outright.

If that sounds easy and simple then congrats on your incredibly privileged and sheltered upbringing.

Sort of. We did, it was just never mandatory and could almost always be charged on just a swipe. We got chip and pin about 15 years ago now, but they again didn’t make it mandatory, so they kept the stripe. Honestly if they just got rid of the swipe we would be fine, but not every retailer has tap to pay and not every bank does chips yet.

It’s a mess. The tech is there, fucking old people and idiots keep the stripe on the cards and because of that skimmers run rampant.

That’s why they said revenue, not profit. You never go for the net. Always go for the gross.

Oh, name and shame for that shit.

Richard Burke at Casper College does this and doesn’t even use the book. Costed over $150.

Garbage practice that should be criminal fraud.

It is insanely disingenuous to think that manufacturing capabilities that could cheaply mass produce waterproof cameras and consumer electronics for 30+ years couldn’t handle miniaturization.

On that note, I never once had water ingress issues with my S5 in a few years of ownership, and I would shower and swim with it. Just had to make sure the back was all the way on for the gasket to seal (the phone would detect it and warn you)

I don’t know why people keep parroting that crap. PHONES CAN HAVE REPLACEABLE BATTERIES AND STILL BE FULLY WATERPROOF.

I had a galaxy S5, it had an SD card slot, replaceable battery, headphone jack… AND WATERPROOF.

It was also thinner than my current OnePlus with the camera bump.

There is overhead but Vulkan allows you to batch draw calls in a far more efficient manner. It can also generally use multi threading to feed a GPU even if the game isn’t coded with that in mind. Basically Vulkan offers so many improvements to efficiency and parallelization that the overhead is a drop in the bucket compared to the overall speedup in draw call optimization alone.
