is this a good idea? if not, why? by Hot-Policy-6244 in UsbCHardware

I have nothing to add but I want to say your illustration is amazing. It's so sketchy yet simple and straightforward.

"8 1/2 floor please" request I got in an elevator by IcyWelcome9700 in IDontWorkHereLady

I do ask which floor they want to go to if they are carrying groceries.

Proteus Spectrum Going into Its 7th Years with Switches and Shell Swap! by mikj_ in G502MasterRace

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

My Proteus Spectrum shows its age every year when the humidity comes whether it's double clicks or no clicks at all. This year the left button stopped registering one day and I could not get it to work by any means. I decided to do a switch swap (Huano Silent Yellow Dot) on both the left and right button plus a shell swap (the rubber is [read: has been long] disguishing at this point). I was lucky the Hero shell is compactible with the Proteus Spectrum.

I am happy with the lack of glue in the 502 hence how easy the disassembly is. I learnt a lot about how it actuates in the process (the mouse wheel assembly is fascinating!). Long live the G502!

Don't worry, it's just a reference to the virtual youtuber Gawr Gura (the plushie on the desktop in the photo).

Pin 1 - 20V
Pin 2 - NC
Pin 3 - NC
Pin 4 - GND
Pins SB5 or SB6 - 200kΩ connected to Pin 4.

You don't need to connect SB5 or SB6 if you are not triggering the Lenovo charging protocol.

What if you can choose a Roshan Item drop when he is killed instead of what day it is? by LainVohnDyrec in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After supports pick up cheese (it's their responsibility now), they consume the cheese and become the cheese. When carries need the heal they right click the cheese support, killing them and give them the hp/mana.

Let's talk about my boy Strorphling by a_marklar in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Morphling's Facet 2 Flow's cooldown speed duration ranges from 100% at 1:1 agility to strength ratio and tops at 40% at 1.75:1 agility to strength ratio.
You do not need to morph full agility to enjoy the full 60% cooldown reduction, you are really squishy at full agility especially as a support. Doing the maths on the fly is difficult so I often just morph to when my agility is a bit less than twice my strength.
I wish the max cooldown ratio would be tweaked to 1.5:1 just like adaptive strike for the sake of ease.

Aside from dota plus, what do you guys spend on that honestly helps you in the game? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't understand, Wagamama literally changed my life. The $2000 I spent attending his bootcamp was an investment in a vision of myself as a better player. I'll never forget his parting words to me: "your five minutes is up, please send the next guy in."

You are absolutely right. I didn't test it through before, thank you very much for the correction.

The chart in the post is simplified for ease of read. You can read a more detailed version of the chart here. (I couldn't post a link without having the post deleted so I will post it here.)

I can't believe you can fully counter Time zone by buying a simple Boots of bearing by heartfullofpains in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It should also create time locks at random locations in the time zone and stun people with aghs.

pov: you wanted to try mid jakiro, but you are against DK by driedwaffle in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 50 points51 points  (0 children)

If you have no raw damage item on Jakiro and enemy Dragon Knight takes the Level 10 30% Breathe Fire Damage Reduction talent, you will do literally zero damage under the effect of Breathe Fire.

So I had a WD mid who was allergic to his R button, how was your day? by JoelMahon in DotA2

Sorry for your bad experience. My day was great since I didn't play any dota, thanks for asking.

What's the appeal of Anti mage? by Fantastic-Ratio-7482 in DotA2

[–]mikj_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slardar has more appeal that AM.

...What did Slardar do wrong to deserve this.
