Thank you for the in depth write up. I want you to know I read it over multiple times and really do appreciate it.

update: my roomate gave me permission to enter his quarters and acquire the compressed air for usage. blew out both mice, both still had the same issues. for the victsing i think it might be a physical damage issue; the switch or whatever controlling the scroll wheel is broken. for the hp, it’s a piece of shit and likely a software issue i think.

re: spot check. I’m assuming this is for the hp mouse, right? I haven’t tried that yet, I’ll give it a shot with my roommate’s compressed air when he gets home. Thanks, I’ll report back when accomplished.

re: cleaning out victsing mouse wheel. It’s been in my school bag for a while, and probably is actually broken since scrolling on it only works in one direction. think it might be the switch inside, not sure though. I’ll give this a shot, thank you.

re: hp’s issues. yeah, definitely a software thing. It’s fucking irritating, and im very certain there were no other variables besides the mouse used. I kept everything the same, then tried all three of of the mouses in sequential order with nothing different between unplugging and plugging the next one in, and they all worked excellently except the hp. I don’t know about special drivers for it, I’ve just been trusting my distro to handle all that (linux mint superiority). And yes, it definitely seems a lot more work than fixing the victsing; my concern is that the physical hardware on the victsing mouse is actually just broken, in which case ordering a replacement and manually fixing it is something beyond my current scope of skills, esp if it requires any soldering whatsoever.

thanks for the advice though!

there’s no way this is a real comic

even in microwavable bowls this still happens, tf are you on about?

What the actual fuck

Iirc he had some condition or another that turned parts of his organs into bone. also iirc it was his liver, but they thought it was his heart.

gonna pour one out for Ozzy, the glorious bastard

My biggest gripe about Patreon is that I can’t just do a one time donation, it’s a subscription to donate money to people. Cool and all, but I’m not rich enough to just give some of my income to people, I’d rather do small donations whenever I can.

no, this is my mother’s soup

What do you mean by debate semantics? Can you clarify that?

thanks

What is the proper form then?

yeaaaa thanks I needed this at exactly when it appeared

so chicken and pepperoni pizza with a grape on it?

There’s a lot of good points being tossed around but I think this one is particularly good.
