I bought a G700s awhile back and liked it a lot. Due to some wrist/should issues, I've switched to a trackball.

Raining sideways at the moment. Been to the front desk 8 times now. Apparently the person in the room above me is the manager of the place, and keeps swearing her angels aren't running up and down the halls. Got into almost a shouting match with the owner. "You've been here since 6, we can't move you to another room" ("and I've been bitching since 6:15, and asking for a room change since 6:20") I know it won't do poo poo, but a corporate complaint and a 1 star rating on Yelp make me feel better. And I'll try and get a chargeback done. First time I've ever called the owner of a place an rear end in a top hat, and that took him walking off while I Was mid-sentence. Walking out of the place now.

I got my wife to take a study break and play with the quadcopter too. She crashed it into the couch and broke a propeller, or, in her words, "One of the wings is wonked."

That's basically my response. They're cheap and meant to break. It's my first foray into multirotors, so now I'm on Amazon finding better propellers! Nine bucks for six!

Took my old relaitvely simple Logitech G5 to work since the adjustable dpi is nice when doing CAD work, and it's a bitch to find a nice replacement for home. I feel your pain. After using MS Intellimouse Explorer products since forever ago, I decided to explore the other options since my current one has become so flaky after six years of abuse. Finally found a relatively inoffensive one with good reviews (and price!) This should be here tomorrow: Etekcity Scroll X1 (M555) Ordered a different sort of keyboard, too, in order to finally break up with Microsoft Natural keyboards. Initially I decided to go for mechanical, but couldn't find what I had in mind for less than All The Money. So, this arrived today and I'm really digging it: Corsair Raptor K30. Haven't gamed regularly since sobriety, but I'm going to see how I can work the macro button functions into Photoshoop and Sublime Text.

Just got back, holy poo poo. My only complaint about Mad Max is that it wasn't loving LOUD ENOUGH!. Can't wait for the Blu ray. There are soooo many scenes I want to play in slow mo.blk posted:The wife and I will probably start trying for our first kid this year. Once they're the appropriate age, I'm considering getting a four seat convertible so that we don't have to give up open top motoring as a family. I got my divorce convertible when my daughter was 2. Modern ones are fully rollover protected so if you're talking about safety, don't worry about it. The only real problem with 4 seater convertibles is the back seat wind is nightmarish. My daughter rode in the front of my Saab because it had no passenger airbag. When I got my Volvo in 07, she was 5, and she absolutely hated riding in the back, and still does. So I bought an airbag switch and shut it off. Since she was able to ride up front, everything has been fine. She's almost 13, and actually asks to take the convertible if it's warm and sunny out. Bottom line, unless you're driving slowly, you'll either need the top up or hope they aren't bothered by wind, lots of kids aren't. In my case it was the wind from behind that put her hair in her eyes that really bugged my girl.

Geoj posted:Back to job chat - got a call back from the place I had two interviews with last month (third party IT support for K-12 schools)...unfortunately they filled the position they were interviewing for with an internal candidate but they have an hourly position that the VP who interviewed me last time feels I'd be an excellent fit for.  Had my phone interview today, went really well - team lead said I sound like a perfect fit for the position, I'm just the type of candidate they're looking for, etc. but they want me to come back in for yet another face to face interview. I get that it's a different position and a different guy in charge but this dragging it out for a month is getting old. Just hope I get a job offer at the end of this one.

Order a pizza and in the info box say you'll tip well to the delivery guy for getting you a pack of xxxx or bottle of xxxx I laugh every time someone actually brings poo poo to my door, it's amazing. Last time I ordered an Indian we asked the guy to go next door and bring some fish and chips for our friend who doesn't do Indian. Guy rolled up with our Indian and a bag of fish and chips. Service! In other news I'm looking at a house Saturday morning, it has a decent drive, a garage and a brick car port about 40' long which is really well protected from the weather (essentially a cave but with lighting!) so I couldddddddd get a project car.

He's also apparently got an unspecified car and two bikes at his parent's house. I told him I wanna build a car after I get a place with sufficient space, Locost derived vehicle with probably 400+ HP and his response was "You're gonna end up dead pretty quick" followed by a "good idea".

Slow week at work and I've been feeling really drained so I'm taking a personal day today. Caught up on sleep, planning a nap later. Going to sit on the porch all day and smoke cigars while catching up on tickets/cases for work. Run some errands in the 928 and see if the charging system is actually working. Try to swing by the awesome little sandwich shop my friend runs for once, he's only open 11-3 Mon-Fri so I haven't been able to stop by since he opened. Should be a good day unless the battery or something else in the 928 is hosed, then I'll be spending it waiting on a tow truck. NitroSpazzz fucked around with this message at 14:18 on May 20, 2015 |
