Yeah, the MLM scams are an entirely different can of shitty worms. Total nightmare.

Job scams are incredibly common. You’ll apply to what looks like a real job at a real company on a job site, and they’ll send back an offer letter and have you sign fake paperwork to get your personal info.

They might have you pay for a fake background check or credit check to confirm your eligibility. They might steal your card info, or just take some smaller amount and use that to help hook you into the scam to get more money later.

They might tell you that you need to purchase a computer or pay for training from them to start a Work From Home job, only there is no computer or training.

They might use you to launder money out of accounts with stolen banking info or just send you a fake cheque and have you “send salaries to other employees” as part of your job duties which will mean you’re transfering your money to someone on cash app or another digital banking app and then the cheque you deposited will bounce.

They might have you repackaging and reshipping stolen goods.

They might pretend to be a company that helps you resell goods and set up an order for some product for you to sell, only it never shows up.

Do not skip on this. You can get ones that have a nice flat noise reduction, and you will be so thankful you spent the like $30 when your ears aren’t ringing forever.

Thanks for looking, but yeah these aren’t quite what I’m looking for. They’ve got the gamer lights and buttons, but the sensors in these are all the same as super cheapo scam gaming mouses that you might see at the checkout at Canadian Tire or flooding Amazon, but they’re generally pretty bad to use. Like they lose tracking or “drop frames” and just aren’t as smooth to use as an actual nice gaming mouse.

Yeah it seems like everything is the exact same crappy jellybean off the shelf mouse put into different cases. Even the sensors in the high end vertical mouses like the MX master are only as good as just a regular desktop mouse.

Seems like capitalism just hasn’t made this market yet. Maybe in a few years when gamers start getting older.

Polling rate, ability to change between low and high DPI on the fly, programmable thumb buttons.

You do not have to hand it to them.

Laziness is the true mother of invention. Almost everything has been invented by people who wanted to do less work.

CW: reminder that they’re still beating the dead horse of adult swim and will continue forever til it stops shitting out money.

It was, originally. It still is now, but it was then too.

I do now code with a glock next to my mouse.

I mean, I do this too but that’s just in case the printer turns into a Decepticon.

“they targeted me in an attack directly. That was disconcerting. Even more disconcerting was that the USG has absolutely 0 response. I’m a private citizen. sure i have a lot of ties to the DoD but i’m certainly not a warfighter.”

Lmao he’s a fed and he’s mad that makes him a legitimate target.

The US is truly incredible at building infrastructure.

Not too challenging to beat, but the fact that they’re intentionally making an effort to make it more challenging is the evil icing on the ghoulish cake.

If my $10 is going to either buy some coke for someone on the street or buy the exact same cocaine for the millionaire whose greed put the first guy on the street, I know who I’d rather help.

The sign is screwed on with hardened safety torx bolts so that it’s harder to remove because they know people will try.

Fucking ghouls.

“Hello, can I take your order?”

*indecipherable mumbling interspersed with crackling feedback over the sounds of a customer screaming at you from the other side of the counter.* “Uhm, excuse me, Hello??? Are you lazy fucks even listening‽”

How is it possible that this is only the first confirmed sighting of a white person in California?

But yeah, this is not good for agriculture.

At this point DDG is basically just an alternative frontend for Bing.
