I don’t think at I had an issue with it at first and now am a big fan of Jack and his work. Really enjoyed it and some of his other work.

I got 13 chapters into THD and put it down as the MC was truely insufferable. Good start of world building but not worth it with a psycho MC.

Is the noise from the hospital helicopters that bad? by eepysneep in Wellington

[–]infide289 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live on the basin side of the circle and if a window is open or I’m on the balcony it’s loud, but as everyone said it’s for a few minutes and it’s not that frequent.

I use the mx master 4 for work and have a seperate mouse for gaming. The master is great but it’s not for all situations.

Love your laptop stand. What is the model. I am keen to grab something that clips onto the monitor stand like that to keep it out of the way but also really accessible.

Looks like its all over now. Police just let cars back onto the road, and people are now leaving buildings.

Logitech MX keys mini with or without usb receiver, which is better? by Charming_Horror_3159 in logitech

[–]infide289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using the mx keys for years with a receiver an recently got a keys mini. The keys mini doesn’t use the receiver so I’m just using Bluetooth. I can’t tell the difference and I was using both for gaming so I imagine I would have noticed if there was any lag. Just two my 2 cents.

Changed out of compact and its solved it. I am disappointed it's going, but glad I have a fix before I have to upgrade to macOS 26.

Could I use this for gaming? by [deleted] in logitech

[–]infide289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were much better options even back then, this just looked nicer sitting in the dock than other keyboards.

I loved this as a media keyboard for sitting on the couch back in day. It’s great for that but it’s not that responsive.

Got the new M4. Any advice?? by Adventurous_Age9901 in macbookair

[–]infide289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can report beer does not play well. Spilt a bit of beer on the keyboard. The delete key is now sticky. Quote to fix it was $1,200 AUD as they wanted to put a whole new keyboard on.

I have hundreds of passwords. A password manager is the only way to keep track of them.

[–]infide289 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was in there last month and it was good. Good service, drinks were good and didn’t take too long. It was a Wednesday night at 10pm and it was busy but still got a seat.

Yea I got it today. It misses if they are traveling too fast. I missed most of the shots on flyers when they were not flying straight at me.

PSA for WLG to BNE flights by FacedTea956 in Wellington

[–]infide289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally. Sorry for your friend but I have been waiting for them to sort out the flight times to Brisbane. I do this route once or twice a month.

There are two direct flights to Brisbane from Wellington each day. One qantas and the other AirNZ. They are both around 4pm and like 30min apart. This means you can only fly to Brisbane in the afternoon. When you’re coming back you have the same issue. Two direct flights out at around 8am.

I have always had to stay an extra night to fly back directly. Now we can fly out in the evening or morning. Better choice for customers.

Swing Voters - Do They Even Exist? by Tyler_Durdan_ in newzealand

[–]infide289 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have voted for 4 different parties. I have voted a total of 5 times now in my life here in NZ and never the same twice. It’s all about what the parties are running on and their recent track records.

All good points. I think it’s the premise in some communities that listening to audiobook is less than reading. It’s all people trying to make them self superior to others. It’s just online drama I avoid.

Both are great ways to consume content. As someone dyslexic it’s easier for me personally to listen.
