What about the amount of single moms in my area?

Been looking into these lately after seeing so many posts about them here. I think I've just about settled on either this one or the Retroid Pocket 5, they seem to be roughly similar from what I can tell. Looking forward to full reviews of both once they're available to help make the decision.

Halfway settled on the CubeXX at first, but I think the rectangle screen would be a little more useful than square, and there are a few PS2 and N64 games that I'd love to play and I think it's too underpowered for that.

I'm sorry, Calvin.

Absolutely, that would have been perfect.

I grew up with the US one. Yours looks better. Classier maybe, more grown up or something. Ours looks like Fisher Price.

Were blades the original UI for Xbox 360 or were they the update? I remember getting a beta invite to try the new UI, I can't remember whether it was going to or away from blades. But yeah, I liked that one too.

And it's not all either. He's only going to ~~kill~~ maim the Democrats. And black people. And brown people. And LGBT people. And women. And non-Christians. So, you know, as long as you're not in one of those groups, you'll be totally fine. For now. But maybe don't get too comfortable.

Yup, same. Upgraded from P6 to P7 for $20 a couple Black Fridays ago. The P7 is starting to get a little wonky, so I'm waiting to see what the sales look like this year, it'll almost certainly be either a Pixel 9 or Nothing Phone (2).

If I had a nickel for every story I've read today about a clemency request in a decades-old shaken baby syndrome case, I'd have two nickels, which doesn't sound like a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

I prefer arches, btw.

 

I built a Ploopy mouse yesterday. All the buttons work, and for the most part it's fine. But the movement is on and off laggy. Sometimes it works great, even faster than what I had before, and then it just stalls or stutters and slows down for a several seconds. I've tried a couple different USB cables, I've taken it apart and tried to reseat everything, I took the optic piece off and tried to blow out any dust that may have been in there. But it's still on and off laggy. Happens in windows and Linux both.

This is only the second thing I've ever soldered, and I'm sure I did a pretty trash job of it. The board is mostly done but you have to solder the optical chip in at build time. Could that cause it to be laggy like that? I don't see any pins accidentally soldered together, there's separation between each soldered lead, though I definitely can't do the nice pretty little dots, they're ugly as hell.

They've provided instructions to build/update the firmware, could that help maybe?

Just wondering if there's any other ideas to help fix this? If I knew it was a legit bad board or something I could maybe go back to the seller and see about getting a replacement, but I'm afraid my soldering could be at fault in which case I don't want to make that his problem. So I'm hoping someone here may have an idea. I love the idea of this diy 3d printed mouse, just hoping it wasn't a $100 mistake.

Thanks in advance.
