    Well, It has a Eco mode, But When I put in in my bag, due to the sensor being god horrible, It turns on, and the Green light when it "wakes up" would keep truing on.

    YedZed reacted to Rainfall in Circular Cursors   
    We all know circular/crosshair mouse cursors are a bad idea, and arrows are the way to go...
     
    But why?

    Unable to find much info beyond "they're imprecise", and unsatisfied with "it's harder to tell the center" when you can point the center out in some way and I've played multiple games with circular cursors where I did just fine, I decided to quickly set up a set of circular cursors:
     

    The Background Execution and Busy cursors are animated with the dot rotating on the grey circle and the circle filling and unfilling with white similar to YouTube's buffering icon, respectively. The black-ish area in the middle is semitransparent.
     
    I've been using them for about a day now, and I haven't noticed anything that bad besides some muscle memory where every now and then I go slightly to the bottom-right of where I wanted to click (as I would with the arrow cursor, I'm just not used to the centered hotspot yet). It's probably just because it's been so little, but I've even had an easier time selecting text (since everything is centered the transition between pointing and selecting is slightly smoother).
     
    And since I am so impatient for answers, I would love to know if anyone else ever tried using circular cursors in everyday computer use, or if there is any big drawback from arrows or other kinds of cursors.

    PS: I was unsure if this was something to post in the general subforum or in a particular one, so I settled for this one - sorry if it's not the right place.
     
    PPS: added the cursors I'm using, if anyone's interested (original .pdn files included) - unfortunately you'll have to manually set them one by one, cause I'm too lazy to make an installer

    YedZed reacted to Daveeede in What do I do with 1TB of space I don't need?   
    Just keep it empty because that SSD will eventually get full and you will want a place to offload some of the less important stuff you have on it. Also as a rule of thumb, you should try to keep the SSD below 75% full (I read that somewhere a while back).

    Wait I thought we were all assuming that to happen. were some people doubting this?
    I knid of assumed since news of them being close would increase favorability with public and investors, the news alone would take them the rest of the way there pretty fast

    YedZed got a reaction from PlayStation 2 in Denuvo DRM has had enough of Revolt Group and starts legal action with Bulgarian authorities.   
    Fuck that company that... protects their IP? I don't get it.
    I see many people saying they crack to improve performance... Still. They are protecting their IP.
    No matter what merit you think cracking has or how shit Denuvo is, this dude WAS breaking the law. His intentions don't matter all that much, having facilitated piracy and stolen profit from the companies. 
    I feel bad for the guy. Can't say I don't see a place for piracy. But I also can't say fuck Denuvo. This IS their fight.

    Don't know about you, but I can still confidently say, "Fuck Denuvo" for creating and releasing shitty and unnecessary products, while still accepting that they have the legal grounds to protect their IP. Something being legal doesn't necessarily mean its justifiable or reasonable.
