  • I’ve had an original g502 since they first came out. Mine was a return that had been damaged, and other than some cosmetic damage (corrosion on the scroll wheel, rubber texturing worn flat, gamergrease stuck in the cracks), it has held up remarkably well for the past 10+ years.

    I’d encourage you to get a budget model from a gaming manufacturer just so you can avoid getting a mouse with integrated acceleration or something stupid like that.

    My group is the only one in our building not allowed to work from home half the week. We are moving office soon, and as a part of that the other groups will have their regular WFH days eliminated, and we will all receive a number of WFH days at the beginning of the year like PTO.

    I’d be mad about it, but every week like clockwork it takes 6+ hours for everyone at home to respond to simple emails or questions. I should be mad at the company for their stupid policy, instead I’m mad at the massive number of my coworkers who fucked it up for us before we even got it.


  • It definitely can be that easy, yes. My most successful day was just a hook (no bait) off the side of the boat while we just let the line hang.

    That being said, you can learn the local varieties of fish, their preferences for different kinds of bait, and you can explore your local area for good fishing spots.

    If you have the option, there’s probably a 90 year old Korea vet who will tell you the arcane arts of catching swordfish in the rockies somewhere.

    We use liters for soft drinks and liquor, but gallons for fuel, milk, and water. For recipes we use fluid ounces or cups since gallons are kind of a large for that.

    It’s actually a mixed system, similar to the UK but with less metric in the mix.

    My partner had one until about a year ago when it broke irreversibly.

    They’re still making payments on it and the thing was already on its third screen when it died. They’re cool and I think the idea is good, but I think the whole “bendable screen” idea is fundamentally flawed for smartphones.
