I've only been playing the past handful of games but it's a fun daily puzzle. I find it interesting that I either get sub 5 minute times or over 50 minute times. Lol

Sadly mice aren't really a BIFL item given their frequent use and how switches have a lifespan before wearing out. You can surely get many many years out of one, though!

I've found the Logitech g502 to be my favorite overall mouse, so much so that I bought one to keep at work. The scroll wheel mode on Logi mice is lovely for precision work (clicky) or fast and smooth; a feature I missed greatly when I tried other mice. My first one started dying after 5 years but that was used for regular gaming sessions on the daily.

Don't be afraid of the extra buttons on gaming mice, either. You can always just not use them but I've found the buttons on top incredibly useful as an undo/redo pair and makes working in anything so much nicer.

That being said, the best mouse is the one you find comfortable. Build quality is kinda the same amongst most brands. If you can work with circuits, repair is easy for any mouse. Optical switches and scroll wheels are cool but will need more stringent cleaning (my Corsair M65 had issues regularly because of cat hair somehow sneaking in).

I usually just deep clean once a year and wash the floor multiple times over until it's pretty clean. Then I let my robot vacuum/mop keep it mostly clean twice a week the rest of the year. The robovac helps enforce a cleaner lifestyle by ensuring things aren't left out and about. The floors will never be perfectly clean though, just the nature of life~

As for everything else, I set reoccurring calendar tasks to space it out but I try to do one area per weekend. Keeps cleaning manageable but regular.

From the article, you can get a detailed usage history of MTA transactions by simply supplying the credit card number (which they state can very often be bought on the dark web). The lack of identity confirmation to pull the report is the concern.

Because you're tied to their DNS without paying a hefty fee to use outside name servers. But there's always Porkbun for nearly as cheap but no strings attached.

Another vote for Porkbun here. I switched after Google Domains shared they were selling off to Squarespace. It's been a lovely experience and their website just seems more human than the other big players. Cloudflare isn't a terrible alternative option as long as you'll be using their DNS.

It's too early to know how exactly it'll be implemented, but I'd bet there would likely be a toggle/setting to turn on at the very least. I'm sure the upgrade instructions will be early laid out how to enable it.

Yes, the seller was Topton Computer Store. No complaints from me on the purchase/process!

I use a similar one of these (different io panel and case) for OPNSense and it's been a delight. Not sure how well it would handle Plex but if you don't need to transcode the files it should be fine. I bought one without ram, os, and storage for $150 last year. That listing isn't available anymore.
