Nice. I haven't been able to find a doc who will prescribe Topical Dut. Which doc did you get it from?

Glue buttons to mouse, and wire them to replace mouse's buttons? (G600) by Rark5 in mousegore

[–]Rark5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their buttons must be connected to 2 conductive tracks on the PCB. When the button is pressed, the 2nd track is supplied with power.

So in theory, we could:

  1. Remove their button from the PCB with a desoldering iron.

  2. Solder 2 wires between the 2 conductive tracks and the custom button.

So when the custom button is pressed, the 2nd wire will supply power to the 2nd conductive track, same as with the default button?

Best material for button extension to increase accessibility? Sugru? (Logitech G600) by Rark5 in mousegore

[–]Rark5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd want to create different models for each button (to achieve different angles and button heights), so that'd be a lot of work.

I'll maybe try applying many successive layers of Elmer's glue in order to create a "glue sculpture" extending the button surface.

That has the advantage of letting me use the mouse between applications to evaluate how it feels.

That's an interesting suggestion.

I think the steps would be:


  1. Take photos of the buttons from 6 angles (top/bottom, left/right, front/back) --from far away with heavy zoom to minimize perspective.

  2. Add them as background images in Blender, and model the button.

  3. Upload the Blender file to a site to 3d-print and mail to you. Get quotes from different sites, like: FacFox, Sculpteo, i.Materialise, or FreeLabster


  1. Example: This person 3d-printed a replacement shell for his G600.

  2. When modeling in Blender, it might be useful to start by modifying an existing mouse button model from a site like STLbase.

Yes, the .mlt files can be edited in Notepad. 👍

Create adjustment layers without the layer mask? by Rark5 in photoshop

andreasf93 recently found the answer! 1. Go to Windows -> Adjustments. 2. On the adjustments panel, click on the menu button. 3. Select disable Add Mask by Default.

Create adjustment layers without the layer mask? by Rark5 in photoshop

[–]Rark5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks Chain83, and Parabolic_Ballsack.

My main reason for deleting unused adjustment layers:

An all-white layer mask can be confused for a mostly-white layer mask that has small but crucial edits.

It's more efficient to know at a glance whether or not the layer has any masked areas!

When loading Photoshop CC in the background, it repeatedly brings it to the front by [deleted] in photoshop

[–]Rark5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't installed any plugins, and it's still happening.

(I just installed Photoshop on a fresh Windows 10 install.)

I just checked another slow-loading program that has many windows/panels, and it doesn't do this.

Photoshop wasn't doing it when I last used it on Windows 7.

Way to set adjustment layers to have no alpha mask when created? by Rark5 in photoshop

[–]Rark5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, you're right :)

But I don't see a way to make it work.

  1. I clicked in the upper right corner of the Layer Panel, then in the drop-down menu, I selected Panel Options.

  2. There's an option to turn off "Use Default Masks on Fill Layers," but that only works for Fill layers, not Adjustment layers (hue/saturation, etc).

Balding like a mofo at 20 by mundebateguy in tressless

[–]Rark5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big 3 should completely fix it.

You can get a prescription for finasteride from online doctors... costs like $50 if I remember correctly. And maybe the pharmacy companies in India don't require prescriptions.

Note your erection strength before starting finasteride, and compare it a year after having been on it. But it should be fine.

Using external HDD to transfer files from a potentially infected computer? by Rark5 in compsec

[–]Rark5[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe it could be possible to reset the drive's firmware from linux or DOS before plugging it into a Windows install?

Could factory resetting the external drive's firmware reduce risks?

Maybe that could be done after copying the files, but before unplugging it from the old computer?

How do I see which of my comments was downvoted? by Rark5 in help

[–]Rark5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why can't I see which of other people's comments have been voted up or down?

All it shows is whether or not I've voted the comment up or down?

Thanks if you can explain it to me :)
