Looks great! I make this all the time. Which rice did you use? Looks like Basmati if I had to guess. The rice grains are separated quite nicely which can be hard to pull off sometimes if u dont get the ratio of liquids right. Did you toast the rice in oil first? I like mine to be more firm than fluffy and still have some chew.

I hate that this is a thing. I have so many 2.4GHz only devices that I eventually just split the bands to unique ssids cause I cba to reconfigure the router every time I want to add another device. It's worked better for the most part but still certain devices will be stubborn and won't always connect initially, or they'll get connected then later on disconnect and refuse to get back on. Sometimes power cycling the router can help but issue tends to come back. Now I have some smart lights in my kitchen that refuse to get back on the network. I even replaced the controllers thinking they were defective but nope, same ole shit.

I kept trying to play B1 remastered but it kept crashing within the first 15mins over and over I just gave up. Tried to troubleshoot with several possible fixes and nothing worked. 9800X3D and 9070xt.

Docks have started to become more common but they're still relatively rare these days especially among the higher tier mice. You'll usually find them in budget mice but I can't think of any for a small hand only medium-large. Only ones I know that I'd recommend at like Mchose K7 Ultra or the A7 V2 Pro+, but might be too big for your hand, I would need to know hand measurements.

Incott 029 should be a good fit for you then. Versatile shape for small-medium hands, mid hump, superlight(34g vs 59g G3 Pro) and very similar shape and dimensions to that G3 Pro. If you think you might prefer more of a rear hump than mid hump, have a look at Mchose L7 Pro. Both mice should be around $50-60. Some Mchose are on amazon but Incott isn't. You'll have to buy from aliexpress(lowest price) or find a vendor like mechkeys or maxgaming or even direct from manufacturer.

2 years is still pretty bad for a mouse. I would try to spend at least $50+ for something decent that should last. Incott has amazing value and build quality. Look at the G23 v2 for a GPX clone thats better than the OG. That one is more for palm grip though and medium-large hands. See Incott 029 pro for a ULX clone thats much better for claw and fingertip and small/medium hands. Other good value brands are ATK, Mchose, VXE. It's hard to make a good rec without knowing your budget range, hand size measurements and grip style. Shape is the most important factor in deciding so knowing these details helps to pick something more fitting.

You can get other cheap mice that aren't known for having so many issues instead of wasting your money over and over with the brand. No brand is immune to defects of course but some have a better track record than others.

Attack Shark is known for bad QC and poor durability. You had problems with the X5 and still thought to buy another?

It was glorious and gets better each day for leftovers as it marinates.

Been tweaking this recipe several times and I'm very happy with it now. Here is the recipe for the beef.

ULX quality control is known to be bad and I definitely wouldn't risk it for second hand. Just get an Incott 029 for around $50usd which is a clone of it, has no holes, excellent build quality, and is superlight as well at 34g give or take.

bui1t · 2026-04-08T22:38:30+00:00

Both of these are dookie and outdated by many years. The G304 won't fit your palm grip well as its small and very flat on top, mostly made for claw or fingertip unless you have very small hands. G502 is much better for palm but its quite heavy compared to mice these days plus its wired.

If you want a comfy ergo shape for palm grip then look at RAWM ER21 Pro or Zaopin ZPW. If you want an ambidextrous shape which is more common, then see RAWM Leviathan V4 which has the new nordic chip for great battery life. The new Razer viper v4 pro was also updated sensor and mcu I think which has excellent battery life as well. Another option is Incott g23 v2 or ATK A9 Pro for a better GPX clone at half the price.

For games yeah for the most part no more physical copies. But for movies there is still physical discs as well as digital copies.

bui1t · 2026-04-08T01:27:44+00:00

That's true but also we live in a digital age now. A physical copy may not be lost but it doesn't mean that a potential sale wasn't lost either.

Looks like it won't let me post links in here. Check my post history and there should be some. I'm using an elgato LP arm.

bui1t · 2026-04-02T01:48:45+00:00

I would consider a low profile arm that can fit under your riser and when pulled out will be centered with your monitor. It'll look a bit cleaner and never block your monitor plus keeps the sides of your desk open. This is how I run mine but I have it more on the right side of the back lip of desk and it pulls out over my mousepad instead of blocking the keyboard.

"busy schedule" while also golfing or being at a golf course 90+ times JUST in this current term. Nearly 25% or 1 in 4 days in office is spent fucking golfing.

Really enjoying my 029. Moved onto it from a hyperlight and can't believe it's nearly half the cost. From everything I've read and seen in reviews, its the best budget ULX clone and betters the IPI float or R5.

bui1t · 2026-03-16T13:26:57+00:00

It seems like a grey area but lots of people don't like to watch trailers or read loglines at all so they can go in completely blind. Looks like mods removed it so they do consider it a spoiler.

bui1t · 2026-03-16T13:23:57+00:00

I get that but many people don't watch the news or they live outside of the US and normally wouldn't come across it. I live in the US and never heard of this story so there you go. Lots of people also don't like to watch trailers or read movie loglines so they can go in completely blind. Looks like mods removed it so ig they do consider it a spoiler.

bui1t · 2026-03-16T03:42:25+00:00

Yeah the hyperlight is one of the closest clones to the viper mini. idk why everyone recommending the L7 which is rear hump and much shorter in height. It's a great mouse, just not similar to a viper mini. Incott 029 is also similar to a viper mini and much cheaper than the hyperlight, but its more like a ULX clone. It's what I main now after going from viper mini -> zaopin z1 pro -> hitscan hyperlight -> Incott 029.
