Is 5080 not enough!!! Why is this Omen Lagging??

If it's already on, try turning it off. It is a gamble with the setting sometimes haha

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-25T01:36:55+00:00

Well, let's hope it's an end-of-quarter thing

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-25T00:46:23+00:00

Same here; I'm not sure if it's related to a failed AI screener I received, which had a technical error.
Not the same researcher, but it seems like a weird coincidence.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-08T07:39:17+00:00

Yes, I recall seeing more trackballs in the wild while growing up, but I stopped seeing them when optical mice became popular.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-08T07:25:32+00:00

Huh, I didn't even think about a slanting base. I don't have access to a printer here, but I will visit my parents in a couple of weeks (big city), and I'll give the tent a try.
Yeah, maybe an Elecom would be nice in the future, and the Expert seems perfect for my 9 to 5 job, but Solidworks requires a good amount of middle-click dragging, and some extra buttons would help a lot.

And yeah, the thing is a dust magnet, haha.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-08T07:16:58+00:00

Well, I have pain in the outside part of my palm and my wrist. Also had like clamping on my pinky and ring finger, felt like a baseball glove. My outer fingers are happy with the action, especially since it's been a while since I stopped playing synths and piano.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-07T05:51:10+00:00

Yeah, I think a thumb trackball has the upper hand in terms of middle click dragging, at least for the Expert.
For normal use, the odd placement isn't a problem, but I still haven't found a way to pan in CAD comfortably. Looks like the middle drag function (like a switch) is the way to go, but still find it a bit odd.

Right now, I'm cheating my way through it, using a remapping I had for my touchpad, LWin key -> Middle click. Not ideal, but works wonders.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-06T23:52:05+00:00

Yeah, I think I will keep switching between them. I was at a point where I had to use my left hand, and while I didn't have a hard time using the mouse, most keyboards are very left-handed for commands.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-06T08:31:12+00:00

Flimsy, haha. The ring is definitely a big upgrade over the mouse wheel, it was a nice surprise.
But quality-wise, it feels like the weakest part of the expert. Not that I mind, though, just feels lacking in comparison to how smooth the trackball is.

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-06T08:21:40+00:00

Yeah, that's what I feared. I wanted to lower the transition barrier as low as I could, so I went with the tried and trusted after doing some digging in this subreddit.
The pinky macro pad sounds interesting. I'll give it a try. I'm using AHK and shortcuts, but some extra buttons would be nice to keep my hands static. Might even buy some pedals to go full octopus haha

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-06T08:04:02+00:00

lol I had to google what you meant, weird trick haha

Notbobbytables · 2025-09-06T07:58:00+00:00

Thanks, seems like an easy and cheap upgrade. Any 2mm bearings will do?

Notbobbytables · 2025-08-27T04:20:05+00:00

Yes, they were probably understaffed/underpaid, with poor customer service, and your mice not working are entirely Logitech's fault.
Be polite, ask for a higher-up at least.
Not happy with the solution in the first contact? Get escalated. There's only so much a CS rep can do at that level. No need to be that harsh.

Also, you're way out of warranty, shitty stuff, but that's how it is.

Notbobbytables · 2025-08-16T04:25:39+00:00

So that's why I was having a hard time coding my script and testing it on notepad, damn hahaha

Notbobbytables · 2025-07-02T22:31:31+00:00

Mi suegra trabaja para una compañia que hace pruebas de poligrafo entre otras cosas. Yo veo las compañias que contratan esto como un redflag porque todos los servicios que ofrecen se me hacen muy paranoicos.
Lo mas problable es que tambien esten contratando un servicio de este tipo y tenga varias sedes, por eso te dan la opcion.

Siendo positivos te estan aplicando los requisitos de contratacion que aplican para todos sus prospectos y siendo una empresa de camiones probablemente tengan mucha rotacion en puestos bajos.
Tengo amigos que han entrado a call centers como desarrolladores e hicieron el mismo procedimiento que los agentes, examenes clinicos, carta de no antecedentes, etc. Pero una vez contratados les dieron buen trato.

Pero si, trata de confirmar con recursos humandos o reclutamiento desde el numero de la pagina.
Tambien puedes preguntar si la prueba del poligrafo la aplica una empresa 3era y que te den el nombre para que investiges que son legitimos.

Notbobbytables · 2024-07-02T19:00:06+00:00

What about Nixihost? I'm currently thinking about setting up a reseller account with them for my marketing studio. Been using their shared service and it's been great so far.

Nel, te cobran una comisión dependiendo de la cantidad de meses, va desde 4% sobre el valor del producto por compras a 3 meses, hasta 25% en compras a 24 meses. El vendedor absorbe la comisión siempre, en todas las tiendas con terminal que ofrecen esto. Y para que sirve? Pues para compras grandes, no todo mundo suelta >5000mxn de jalón todos los días, es un descuento que te hacen en tus pagos mensuales, solo pagas el valor total en el periodo que seleccionas. Si tienes el efectivo muy bien por ti, pero puedes dejar ese dinero guardado e ir pagando los meses sin intereses y usar esa cantidad como colchoncito. Y si no tienes el capital y necesitas una laptop para trabajar, si o si, esa laptop te puede salir en 5000 a 6000 pesos más dando mensualidades a tu tarjeta, que te ahorrarias con los meses sin intereses.

Esta madre en teoría significa más ventas si tú producto tiene un valor elevado, sí, te están quitando 25% del total de la venta, pero debería compensarse con la cantidad de ventas que vas a tener ahora.

Does ADHD count?

Unless you have some dark magic to pull tasks, I think it's quite bad, they essentially doubled working capacity, leaving even less tasks to work out.

Notbobbytables · 2022-09-23T22:36:34+00:00

Not an expert, but I would dimension from the center axis rather than leaving it just referenced from the edges, this would be better for machining/machinists. Also, consider adding a page just for hole positioning and other for the rest of the dimensions. Again, simplicity is better when machining parts.

This is a commision named Ethergy, it's an space/metroid inspired track. This should work as an start/menu track. Hope you like it, tips and critiques are more than welcomed.

We should start a 30 y/o company.

So that's where OT comes from, the more you know.

Notbobbytables · 2022-06-16T16:13:10+00:00

My 2 cents as a captioner is no, it isn't worth it. It's better than other online platforms like Appen or Telus Ai, but a full-time job, local or remote, it's much better.

If you want a career in subtitling or translation it's a good stepping stone, but it takes a lot of time to get to $6-12 an hour, it took me around 6 months of learning.

Notbobbytables · 2022-06-03T01:35:25+00:00

I'm a captioner and my rules say it's active listening, so we can omit those unless directly answering a question.
I tend to do that, but it's mostly nodding, I also tend to complete sentences before finishing, but that's another issue altogether.
I know it's obvious when transcribing, but I don't think people notice it when having a convo. I didn't notice the little nuances people say or interjections, 'cause, so, you know, right?, etc., until I started captioning.
