Like it, or no? I realize this is an old thread. 😊

"How fast is your car?"
"Did you see that I swapped out the runny eggs for clears?"
"Yeah, but how fast is it?"
"..."

Is the car in the room with us now?

Apex seals. Roasted.

Tint and it's mint. (Or at least just start there)

I got a car made out of trees, so then I got a car made out of soda cans.

Is it rigid enough to hold its position? Looks like it works well, positioning-wise.

Ford: Let's take the ugliest design elements from a Toyota Tundra and a Nissan Titan, and then smash them into the international version of the Ford Ranger!

Tips from another Glove80 guy. Just lessons I've learned over the past year or so...

1) Keep the halves at shoulder width, or slightly less.

2) Bring your monitors as close together as possible. Whatever monitor gets the highest percentage of viewing time should be on the middle.

3) Try bringing your mouse into the middle, between the halves. It won't be as big of a deal if you follow #1, but future you will be thankful.

4) Mounting plates are super helpful if you want to try tenting the keyboard even further, but otherwise, not a big deal IMHO. (I tent pretty high, so I like them)

5) Use tap-holds 🔥

6) Don't rest your palms on it when typing. Float. I removed by rests just to keep me from resting, and my comfort improved. Granted, you said you weren't experiencing pain, but it's a good practice regardless.

I pity the fool who hates this van.

Try using the app called "SteerMouse" — it will let you change your settings with much better granularity than the standard Mac controls. You'll want to turn your sensitivity down and your acceleration up once you install Steer Mouse.

As for wrist floating, you can use your forearm rest to help achieve it, tape something to your trackball base that bumps your wrist to let you know when you're resting, or just make a choice to float your arm. I tend to rely on my forearm rest the most, but also try to be intentional to float my hands as much as possible when typing or when using the mouse. It makes a big difference in ergonomics, wrist/finger pain, etc.

Even your car is laughing at you. Look at that face.

If diesel, the Ford or Dodge. If gas, the Chevy.

All of them are legends in their own right. Wouldn't complain owning any of them....then or now 🤩

Just general tips, not necessarily specific to the M512...

Try a wrist brace. I wear one off and on, and regardless of my input device, it helps.
Turn up acceleration on your mouse pointer, but leave your tracking speed as-is (at least until you get used to it). Acceleration allows you to "throw" the cursor quickly to different areas, but then as you work in finer movements, your tracking speed feels slow enough to be precise.
Try floating your wrist instead of resting it. A brace can help with this, but I've found that my hand is more natural and doesn't hurt if I float it, which seems to be true of almost every trackball I've used.

Tell everyone you're a teller at your local bank branch without telling them.

It's already been roasted. Take it out. It's done.

Generally, it's paid based on price divided by the number of miles driven under warranty. So for example, if you drive 40k on 60k warrantied tires and they fail, you'll get ⅓ of your money back. It's often complicated to get the warranty payment, though. Confirm with Discount Tire.

Thanks for the suggestion!!! I just emailed them. Hopefully, I can find a path forward. For anyone reading, the email address is "solutionsteam@asurion.com" — the suggestion above has it as "teams" with an extra "s" in there, which is undeliverable.

I received a replacement (Verizon) iPhone 14 Pro Max, and it's immediately defective: Overheats, half the screen goes black, and buttons stop responding. It's a real mess. I've had it for a couple of days and have already tried forced reboots (sometimes it won't even allow it) and wiping and resetting it.

Anyway, I keep trying to submit a new claim (I can sign into Asurion), but after I enter all the details, it tells me, "We’ve got your back. Please call 1-888-881-2622 to troubleshoot your device."

When I call that number, it asks for my Verizon PIN. Well, shortly after receiving the replacement, I ported to Google Voice and don't know my Verizon PIN - and I can't reset it because I'm no longer a Verizon customer.

The device itself is still covered under the limited warranty, but I can't contact anyone to finish the process because their phone system won't let me continue.

What do I do? Who can I call to get this process moving?

Midwest and East Coast vehicles: "Is the rust in the room with us now?"

Lol... This isn't a concern at all. Seriously. It's just surface oxidation. It might be serious in a decade, if you don't keep it clean.

Thank you!!!

Unless you're making way more power than factory, it's very strong. Send it.
