Dyskolos

Dunno. I’m done with bigtech and won’t even touch that crap. Well, didn’t touch the other two either, but that paid off well now 😁

Onboard-profile is indeed a good thing. I rarely change my setup anyway and wouldn’t need the driver probably. Öl, sold 😁 thanks man!

Damn, this one looks like it could do the job for me. I’m pretty picky and need my share of customizable buttons. Even got a joystick…

Don’t care if Chinese, although that often just means driver will never get an update and maybe it stops working next os-version and never ask about Linux 😁

But thanks for the hint and review…guess I’ll just get one, even if from the US…I’m not a patient motherfucker 😁

Is there an actual gaming mouse? Last time I checked those all were horrible office-mice at best.

I feel you. The more you know, the less you can do any good. You can try and try and try all around and all you achieved by doing your best in doing good is discovering more bad and feel like you’ve failed altogether. I try to stick to the thought of that it’s only MY best I can do, I’m not almighty and everywhere. And maybe I just have set my standards/morals too high.

Sure. Just don’t pay. I listen to some very questionable or morally disgusting songs because I like the music. And I personally never care for the author’s life story. I don’t ask who builds my car either.

Be glad you actually realized it and we even have this chat. And this is beyond bullying, this is top-level-abuse and shows all the usual signs of manipulation and gaslighting. Can’t repeat it often enough: keep the fuck out of their reach. forever. Physically at least, mentally they will probably live rent-free in your head for a while longer (but you will learn to make peace with, or, at least, cope with it). It might sound trivial, but one of the simplest and best rules in (social) life is: Keep toxic people out of your life. Period. Even if it’s blood. Or especially if it’s blood. Make your own family out of friends and soulmates. If you ever have the feeling someone might not be good for you, he most likely isn’t. Fuck this person and move on. You’re only here once, why waste it with some ass-clowns that don’t even care about you?

I’m sorry you had/have to go through all this, noone deserves such treatment. But hey, you made the first step and this is the most important one. Acknowledging there even IS a problem. And you even acted upon it.

And one for the road: Being autistic doesn’t make you weird. It, at best, makes you slightly deviate from the baseline of normality. And that’s what makes people actually interesting, not boring run-of-the-mill-copycats with no own opinions. But this is just my misanthropic point of view :-)

First off: you’re not disgusting. Those who do that to other people are.

As the other commentor said: seek therapy as fast as you can. If you can. Everything we say here can potentially make it worse…

Out of mind-out of sight only works superficially and temporarily, if at all, and it will come back anyway, hitting you even harder and making you run (from your thoughts) even faster next time. Yet despite that is keeping a distance to them (And new arseholes!) absolutely imperative! Having witnessed that so many times it makes sad.

I don’t know any details about your abuse, but should you ever consider going back, for whatever reason: don’t. It happens all the time and it’s never ever a good thing.

I wish you all the power to keep away and get better dear random internet stranger.

Jeez…thanks for the details. Wow. But…what if someone “defends” himself in a home-robbery with such a doomsday-device? Is that also level then or just simply the posession?

Sounds like you dodged a bullet… What’s more manly than playing a dating farmer that wears a dotted minnie-mouse-bow? 😁

And thank you, we will. Just bad I already introduced her to the king of the genre…what next? Sandrock? SunHaven? Anyhow …

Wifey found your post very insightful and also funny. Despite not being funny. As we’re currently in a stardew-marathon and she (being not a hardcore gamer) asked me if I knew if anyone ever fell in love with an NPC. I didn’t knew, then I stumbled upon your comment and showed her 😁

Please explain why there are "only’ 12 “civilian transferable” to a non-us… Because here I stood thinking the ar15 already was the epitome of civilian wtf.

Amen. I do love LEDs since their dawn and have a big-ass collection. But on every single stupid computer thing? I don’t wanna pay extra just because my mouse can have stupid rgb-lights. Or my damn RAM. It adds absolutely nothing, costs more and has another part that will go broke.

I hate the rgb-craze…

One my Xbox controller’s light is so bright it could power our solar-panels. I had to put multiple Band-Aids on it 🫤

Oh, a good one too 😄

This might’ve been the most accurate and vivid description of key-differences with the absolute least possible amount of words, nay characters even.

Dude, I bestow upon you the medal of efficiency.

Depends on what level of usability of an un-updated android one needs, yes. On a TV I guess it’s of less importance. Except you’re dependand on apps that constantly update and also their required os-level. Yeah,might’ve been too optimistic ;-(

Same. I didn’t even find a 1080p anymore, let alone a dumb one. So fucking sad…but I don’t ever need a TV at all, it’s just for wifey who uses it as background-noise.

And it could be even cheaper without their stupid “smart”-crap. But nooooo. Let’s make a TV they maybe can’t even use 10 years later anymore.

Oh I didn’t know. Assumed it’s just the same shit like their phones and tablets. Crap on top of other crap. But it’s still Samsung and I don’t trust them either 🥴

I got a …don’t hit me…GoogleTV “smart” one recently and there’s absolutely no BS. With some fiddling one could replace the launcher and then there’s really not much left. As to tracking and stuff, there’s pihole and no WiFi, just LAN. And they don’t even try to escape local DNS.

I explicitly wanted a google one, not some Samsung-shit who add their own garbage on top of Google’s garbage.

But the best advice would be to buy the dumbest tv possible (are there even some left?) And then be free to choose which box to add to it. Which might also be google but exchangeable if annoying.
