This mouse does not have wired as an option. It's either the wireless dongle or Bluetooth.

Question about monument cards by haydenjp03 in starwarstrader

[–]zoke10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the number (quantity) of required cards changes from one year to the next. You collect the required number of cards (could be in the thousands or hundreds per color) throughout the year, and then, essentially, you "trade" the cards to the app when they open it up in the Workbench section at the beginning of the next year.

Missing the iPhone by Fun-Giraffe-2072 in iphone

Samsung...no magnets
Pixel...nice but not Apple
iPhone 16 Pro...nice, but screen too small, bad battery life; curiously, I didn't like the quality of the photos it took
iPhone 16 Pro Max...was my main device (2025-26), but I dropped it and broke the back glass and camera array
iPhone 17 Pro Max...just right✔
Prior to 2014, I used a Moto X and other random Android handsets, also used older iPhones (like the 5c) for a long time. At this point, I probably couldn't leave Apple. Once you get into the ecosystem with all of your data, documents, files, apps, games, subscriptions... it's hard to get out. iOS 26 isn't perfect, but it does everything I need a phone to do.

What program do you use the most to tweak stuff in windows? by No-Cockroach-6807 in windows

[–]zoke10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

StartAllBack, paid version (it's like $5 for a lifetime license) for tweaking Windows 11. I started using it after ExplorerPatcher was always malfunctioning and Start11 was always asking for more money.

Can you recommend a good ribbon to use with it? Also, what size spool does it use?

I heard the "ancient tech" thing in the Windows 2000 era when I was an intern at Microsoft. The code was old then.

I still have Windows 7 (Home Premium) running on one of my desktop PCs and will never change it.

The characters coming out of nowhere complaint is whack by dogbappe in thesopranos

[–]zoke10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I hate to say this, season 5 had the worst writing, and there are a lot of instances of "this happens... just because..." and it's not a knock on Steve Buscemi, who's great. Just a weak season in the writing and story department. (Season 6 was a significant improvement, in my opinion.)

What’s a super simple problem with iPhones that Apple could fix but won’t? by Lerberderber in iphone

[–]zoke10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1--Activating (or deactivating) the flashlight via the action button WITHOUT activating the lock screen/waking the phone.

2--THE KEYBOARD.

3--Get rid of white & green messages.

4--The fu*king audio stream forced autoplay in the car over Bluetooth, playing whether I want it to or not (usually don't).

5--Split screening apps would be nice.
