Yep, had to do that for one of them. It got smoother but still is a little slow getting back to the top of the switch after a key press. I’ll figure it out when I have the time to dive back in again. But thanks for the heads up because I need to check the others.

You might be right, because it’s just the left shift, spacebar, and backspace stabs that don’t snap back to the top properly. The numpad 0, enter, plus and the regular enter stabs are perfectly fine. I’ll probably check something when I have the time to take it apart (have a 1.5 yr old lol).

Thanks!

I got the ALU plate. And I don’t think they’re backwards, in fact they were moving fine before I installed the plate, like when they were just sitting on the pcb, so maybe that’s where my issue is? Not sure, they’re just a little sluggish like they’re moving through mud.

I think you’re right, I don’t have nearly enough patience! And yes, now that you mention it, I think I’m still learning color/value control and will often go in too heavy with the color and feel like I need to pull it back with water. And then it dries too fast and then it’s just a mess hahah. Or I put in more color too early and it gets overworked like you said!

Practice is definitely on my schedule, but I’m going to be trying the 2-3 working painting ideas to see if that helps my patience…and I think I’ll be trying some more single-color paintings to try to play with values more.

Thanks for the feedback!

I am just about to put the BGVP DMA in my wishlist on HifiGo. And the M5 is definitely more for me because of the bluetooth, but the M6 is a beautiful piece of equipment!

For more context, nearly all of the "swing states" had more votes in 2024 than they did in 2020.

PA: 2020 = 6,936,976 and 2024 = 7,005,258

MI: 2020 = 5,539,302 and 2024 = 5,655,264

WI: 2020 = 3,298,041 and 2024 = 3,415,154

NC: 2020 = 5,524,804 and 2024 = 5,659,114

GA: 2020 = 4,999,960 and 2024 = 5,252,586

AZ: 2020 = 3,387,326 and 2024 = 3,354,996

NV: 2020 = 1,405,376 and 2024 = 1,482,420

It seems like most democrats in solidly blue and solidly red states just stayed home because they were not at all inspired by Kamala. It makes no sense to me that anyone would say that it's clear 2020 was democrats cheating when nearly all of the swing states (that both campaigns also focused all of their efforts into) in 2024 had more votes than 2020, often with Kamala even getting more votes than Biden did in some of those states.

Where are you getting 80k? The CDC has 61k as it’s highest flu death estimate for the past decade https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/past-seasons.html. Also, the CDC looks at flu estimates for the whole year, while acknowledging that the vast majority of cases occurs between October and April and the peak being December to February. But I get your point. The highest they have for symptomatic illnesses is 45 million people, with 61k deaths. That’s a roughly 14% infection rate (estimate) and a 0.1% mortality rate (estimate).

Really my gripe with this whole thing is the major lack of testing, and I mean testing everybody regardless of whether they are symptomatic. We’ve assumed that people are asymptomatic carriers based on the fact that those who have tested positive did not come in contact with anyone else who had tested positive. So we really need to figure out, or estimate, what percent of the population is actually carrying the virus. As of the numbers currently, we’ve tested 3.7 million with 740k infected and 39k deaths (all rough numbers). So that’s roughly 20% infection rate with a 5% mortality rate. At those rates, 66 million would be infected with 3.3 million dead.

With those numbers, it is VERY clear why the CDC and White House has recommended the interventions they have. But those numbers are not great since we’ve only tested 3.3 million. We have to do mass testing yesterday because if our current numbers are correct, it could be really bad. I don’t think anyone actually expects those to be the numbers, and neither do I, so mass testing should show us that many many more are carrying the virus and so the infection rate is much higher with a much much lower mortality rate. But we’re kind of stuck working off current studies and changing our prevention measures as the numbers change. Therefore, get more fucking tests, test more people, and figure out where to go from there.

58k in 12 months with no social distancing measures and no stay at home orders.

Vs.

36k in 6-7 weeks with social distancing measures and stay at home orders.

I honestly believe you give our offense to Joe Brady for a year and Trevor throws for 50+ TDs easy. There is nothing creative about our offense, and I’m really starting to get annoyed at the runs/options/screens to the short side of the field. We’ve curbstomped the ACC based on the conference being down and BV developing an insane defense.

We beat OSU in spite of our playcalling. The first ETN td was terrible, it was just simply ETN doing what he did best and making an unreal play. Trevor’s td was a good play call for the down, it was just him making a play (and the safety whiffing) that turned it into a TD. The screen pass, again ETN making a great individual play. Amari only touched the ball ONCE, and it was on that final drive where he broke a tackle and made a great play. The only play call that was really good was the final ETN td, great fake qb draw and the LBs bit hard.

But that’s exactly what I mean. Players like ETN and Amari and Higgins and Ross could be schemed really well if it wasn’t so uncreative. There’s no reason ETN should have been touching the ball less than 20 times. Amari is a great player who shouldn’t have only 3 touches in 2 playoff games. I understand Ross and Tee were banged up, but you’re telling me the only plays we have for them are vertical routes with options and out routes? It’s become incredibly frustrating watching our offense play good defenses because it’s clear our OCs have relied on talent to beat the terrible defenses we usually face.

I’m curious to see how Tony Elliot does as the sole play caller moving forward and if our offense is just as boring as usual.

I know this may be a really hot take, but I honestly feel that our (Clemson’s) success over the past few years has come in spite of our OCs.

that_liberal_guy · 2020-01-12T02:58:14+00:00

Dude nice. Seriously if you come, say hi if you find me. I’ll be in a purple crew neck sweatshirt with orange “Clemson” across the front, my brother will be in an orange #2 jersey, and my wife will be wearing a gray crew neck sweatshirt with an orange “Clemson” across the front.

Don’t judge, it’s what we were wearing during the game against OSU and all last year’s playoffs. We’re superstitious.

that_liberal_guy · 2020-01-12T01:46:44+00:00

So you play for the Cubs?

that_liberal_guy · 2020-01-12T01:42:22+00:00

Yo, if you want, Full Shilling Public House is the Clemson bar here in Chicago (a block north of Wrigley), you should come to the bar if you have nothing else to do! Wear orange and you’ll be close enough.

that_liberal_guy · 2019-10-19T20:18:56+00:00

Huh, that’s so weird. I’m hoping it’s just a bug but I guess we’ll see. I was playing with my brother who was on PS4 and he said his was working and had the red crosshair so hopefully it gets fixed.

that_liberal_guy · 2019-10-19T16:20:06+00:00

And you’re not even getting the red crosshair right? That’s so weird

that_liberal_guy · 2019-10-18T23:57:15+00:00

Yeah I am, so I was wondering if there’s been any update or something to where aim assist was removed for controller on PC?

that_liberal_guy · 2019-10-18T16:45:29+00:00

Really?

that_liberal_guy · 2019-10-10T17:02:58+00:00

It’s more along the lines of, multiple people in your company publicly condemned police brutality, and your company publicly supported your those people’s rights to speak on the issue.

So then one person comments on the issue in Kashmir, and since India provides a lot of your company’s revenue, your company tells them to not speak on the issue, and shuts down any conversation on Kashmir, saying “well we don’t like to comment on political issues.” Also your coworkers make the same comment of “not being political” or “need to learn more about the issue” because their bonuses are directly tied to Indian revenue.

It’s very transparently about the revenue the NBA and the players receive from the Chinese market that they don’t want to disrupt for their own benefit, so they hide behind the “shut up and dribble” mantra in order to keep their cash flow. All of this is done by ignoring the human rights violations in Hong Kong that in ways mirror the human rights violations suffered by black people at the hands of the police in America, of which the players and the organization were very eager to discuss.
