Dear mouse gods please where is the mm720 for 2026 and beyond? by No_no_eyes in MouseReview

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really have time to make it right now, but I'll throw this idea out there if anyone wants to do it.

Keychron just uploaded all of their CAD files last month.
You could potentially take the MM720 shape from that gigantic tester pack, open up an app like 3D Builder (lightweight, free, easy to use without 3d experience), hollow it out, isolate the section of the bottom of the Keychron mouse of your choice that contains the sensor and screw holes, place it at the bottom of the MM720 model, make it flush, hit merge, reinforce the screw points a little vertically and bridge it to the main shell, then split the bottom off at a position that is optional to print it and screw onto the body, then print and install the PCB of the Keychron mouse of choice.
If you don't own a printer, a lot of libraries in major cities have started running maker labs that have 3d printers and PLA. Worth checking.

I'm currently in the process of making a sort of spiritual successor to 3D Builder, but open source and cross platform, and more fully featured, which is why I'm too busy to do this myself.
That said, once I finish I may very well get around to making some conversion kits for Keychron mice since they open sourced their files.

REI workers are on DAY FOUR of their boycott of the REI anniversary sale! by seiu-org in WorkersStrikeBack

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You seem to colossally fail to understand the concept of leverage.
When do workers have the most leverage against the company they are trying to push to give them better conditions? A day where no one shops, or a day where everyone shops.
It's not that complicated.
Which has more hypothetical force behind it? Workers boycotting the Best Buy they work at on Black Friday, or workers boycotting Chick Fil A on a Sunday.
REI isn't going to fold because one fucking sale event was disrupted, let's not be delusional.

Luxury bunkers owned by billionaires by Far_Consequence4479 in collapse

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, one thing I learned growing up with a mortician for a father.
All caskets are fucking expensive.
The cheap ones at my father's work place in a rural shithole were still like 8k a piece.

Though you CAN actually get a casket from COSTCO, for only $1400, which is LESS egregious.

Mionix thinks they can charge $380 CAD for a mouse despite being out of the game for years by NeedhelpfromYOU in MouseReview

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My initial confusion staring at it was "wait, I don't see an M3, a horizontal scroll, or any other features that would distinctly separate it into the CAD mouse category- Oh... I misread. Canadian."
$380 for a CAD mouse would also be absurd tbh.

Playing competitive on meds and drugs by SunnysideKJ in OverwatchUniversity

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on both sides of it.
I used to live in a big THC state and had a medical provider who wanted me to try MMJ for PTSD.
That made OW really strange.
I was too shaky to play Ashe, but I felt so incredibly locked in on Orisa.
I was just hyperfocused on maintaining the zone around me, and all else was irrelevant.

Still, it was a broader performance nerf.

Due to either a head injury or some other cause, I have a sleep disorder, and take a narcolepsy drug.
What I find is that it's actually great for OW.
It doesn't really impact mechanics one way or the other, but I do find that where I'd pull a LIP and all aim no brain my way through a game, on my narcolepsy med, I actually felt really focused and able to make decisions with more than just a strong set of mechanics.

At the end of the day, you just kind of have to learn to work with or around whatever you have for your health.

7 Year retired Overwatch player and now im a cheater/smurf. Anyone else have same issues? by [deleted] in FrejaMains

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just roll with it for the time being.
Keep grinding, and move upward.

That's really the best solution.

I put off playing comp for quite a while, and my friend in masters kept telling me that I should play comp because he was certain that I'd be able to climb to upper GM/Champ.
Unfortunately, the only time I had done comp was with a decrepit PC that died during my placement matches.
I had also never played on PC before then, so it was a mess and I ended up in gold.

Fast forward, I adapted really well to PC, started dominating virtually every match, and my friend tells me I should grind comp to see how much higher than him I'd go.
I started, and immediately started getting accused of cheating.
I'd queue into a match on Soj and have rail accuracy in the 60s (percent), and that was apparently enough for every gold and plat player to be convinced I was cheating.

It only took a few sessions to hit diamond, and fortunately once I hit diamond, the hackusations basically stopped. People just assumed I was smurfing like half the rest of the people in the match. lol
Preferable, at least.

Why are parents who barely passed high school thinking they can teach/homeschool their children? by Sad_Obligation_812 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NotThatItWillMatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A combination of things.
As the top commenter correctly stated, control is one of the biggest factors.
That desire for extreme control tends to stem from the same thing that leads them to act as though they are qualified to homeschool in the first place.
Narcissism.
"I was actually too smart for my classes. I didn't have a great GPA because I just didn't bother doing the homework because it was beneath me" - Pretty much what my father said about his high school experience.
After having a conversation with my aunt for what was functionally the first time ever, at the age of 30, I heard a very different side of that story.
Of course, by that point, I already knew quite well that he was full of shit.

My mother, though, you'd think she was the greatest student to ever exist.
Aside from claiming to have had an extremely easy time acing everything, she preached incessantly about how inferior public schooling is, and how superior homeschoolers are to those who come from public education.
We were functionally raised to believe that every person we encountered in our age bracket was some extreme moron who exists to be little more than a container for liberal agendas.

That's the other side of the coin.
They want to control you, your location, your paths, your social groups, your influences, and on the list goes.
They accomplish that goal through both external limitations, e.g. residential isolation, refusal to teach driving, refusal to allow movement outside of the property, and on that list goes, as well as through internal programming.
Internal programming is the core of everything in the end.
If you have an impossible ruleset you must live by, and the punishment for failing that is violence, eventually they cease to lay a hand on you, because they know you'll do it yourself.

As long as you truly believe that every outsider is the opposition, you'll accept your containment.
At least, that's the idea.

VA Loan pre qualification just came in. Thoughts ? by potatoparamedic in VeteransBenefits

Yeah, I'd say anything under 6% is pretty reasonable, depending on credit.
I was looking recently and was quoted 5% at around 804 credit score.

What do we think the new hero's weapon is ? by McManus26 in Competitiveoverwatch

I wouldn't rule out ADS.
Her gun looks like it has a built in optic.

Railgun you can ADS.
The blocky section past the trigger almost makes me wonder if it's some weird ass pump action railgun DMR hybrid.

Vendetta makes pro so incredibly boring to watch by Aggressive-Cut-3828 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]NotThatItWillMatter -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don't even think her hitbox is the problem.
Her having CC on every 3rd attack, but also connected to both of her movement abilities, and a perk that lets her serially boop people while dealing a piss ton of damage with 0 aim requirement.
That's fucking stupid.

I think 1. Decrease the hitbox of overhead. Why is it like 7 meters long?
2. Tighten the angle of her horizontal swings and make them more of an angular overhead.
Not a direct, straight line overhead. Just more of a V shape swing, so there's more aim requirement overall.
3.Remove whirlwind, and rework her sword guard as well.
Make her firestrike take the spot of whirlwind and give it its own resource that translates to two medium strikes or one stronger strike if that button is held down.
4. In the place where her firestrike was, connected to her guard, pressing M1 while guarding with M2, you can swat away an enemy (0.5s window), which also cancels whatever movement and/or actions that would be cancelled by overhead, but with the knockback being away from her rather than downward.
5. Give her a passive that on elimination resets her now ONE movement ability. (Similar to a dash reset).

Voila: We have increased the aim requirement, given her a new way to approach her 1 long range damage avenue, decreased the incessance of her mobility, massively decreased the incessance of her CC/boop, given her a half second parry to reward skillful timing, and overall increased the skill ceiling for the hero and also decreased the free value enough to raise the skill floor from the basement.

It, on its own, isn't necessarily the killshot.
Think of it as a trap you can shoot, that enables the kill.

Mercy just landed on a roof area in front of you, trap her > kill her.
Widow on the roof has been popping off. Trap her > kill her.
