[QUOTE=LimEJET;48031929]Isn't the cure for amblyopia to usually just cover the dominant eye for a few months? I fail to see how VR would give any large improvement.[/QUOTE]
Didn't work for me. Covered the eye for like 6 hours a day, 5 days a week for two years.
[QUOTE=MasterFen006;48035792]Am I right in saying blower-style coolers are better for ITX cases?[/QUOTE]
I've got a card with ASUS's weird half-blower hybrid design:
[t]http://www.asus.com/media/global/products/5mWpfkGbdo2e6axr/TPsoDLj0RE5MchkN_500.jpg[/t]
It's in my [url=http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mini-itx-elite-series/elite110/][I]tiiiiny[/I] case[/url] and it works really well. Quiet and relatively cool (as much as you could ask for with only one case fan and 5 cm of vertical space for the CPU cooler).
Side note, it benches a lot cooler than MSI's RADAX design with the blower fan on the rim, AND it's quieter.
A friend of mine has recently lost his left thumb. This is sort of a problem for him.
He wonders if there's a reliable way of rebinding the space bar to one of his mouse buttons. System wide.
Anyone got any idea what would be the best way of doing it?

That sucks... :c Wouldn't GlovePie work for that? Not sure if it can also be done with the likes of JoyToKey.

GlovePie sounds very complicated.
And I'm not very sure how JoyToKey works? I'm trying it now but I'm not really getting it to do what i want.

It seems that JoyToKey only accepts gamepad inputs
Pretty much any logitech G series mouse should be able to.
I'd rather focus on a software solution for now, don't wanna tell him "well you have to buy a thing" just yet.
Yep, this is working in Chrome, TS, text editors, putty, etc.

Yeah, I wasn't sure about that one. :\ Sorry I couldn't be of further help.
Oh, he found a solution. Not sure what he did. :v:
Welp.
OH! You might want to try X-Mouse that should work
[editline]23rd June 2015[/editline]
Rate me late. :v:
Turns out he had a Logitech mouse, and some guy did link him to the Logitech gaming software.

We do a lot of wireless shit that needs to be on towers. Most of them are only like 30-40 feet tall though on top of roofs.
Ah yes, the sounds of a time before solid state stuff...

Kids of today are missing out.
I remember recording songs off the radio with my sweet stereo system, and then I could listen to music whilst on the bike with a crappy Walkman-clone.
Shit was simpler back then.
I picked up an iphone 4s and can't get this piece of shit to charge. Any tips?

Change the battery
Try plugging it in
It charges when it's dead and has the "charge me asshole" battery on the screen, but not while the thing is actually running.
It charges just enough to start up, then doesn't recognize it.
I have a small question about a laptop. My brother gave me his barely-used ASUS that he got for college work because "it pisses [him] off", probably because he doesn't like Windows 8.
Since this is the first laptop I've ever had that actually has a functioning battery (probably because it's not an HP), I need to know: is it better to let it charge to a certain percent and unplug it every so often? Or is it better just to leave it plugged up? Or something else?
I tried to look it up and people were like "Yeah keep it charged to 80% and unplug it" and "Keep it plugged up, modern laptop batteries can't be overcharged" so I don't know.
After shit hits the fan on those batteries, they go downhill fast, though.
My laptop's battery has lost 30% of the original capacity.

What's the best way to check battery health like that?
powercfg /batteryreport

Leave it plugged in. The circuits take care of charging and stop when it's full.

Linux provides those statistics automatically, don't know about Windows.
I do remember that the charge state that you usually look at, recalibrates the 100% to whatever it can get out of the battery, instead of what it used to have.
You could also just stick a constant load on the battery, and let it discharge, and time it.

My 4S does this. It won't fucking charge off any AC adapter unless it's the fucking little cube Apple chargers or my parents PC. Even with my 3A adapter it just sits there going "LOL, WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT FOR." The spec says it just needs ANY USB port that can handle 2A.
