- Comment on Does a tiny motion tracking mouse thing exist at all? 1 week ago:
With mice, the screws are always hidden by the glide pads on the bottom. It looks like an ASUS WT200 but after a quick look I can’t find any for sale.
Ok if you can’t get replacement guts, it might be something easy you can fix. Maybe some paint got on the laser or the lens. Flip it over and have a close look at the little hole. Some isopropyl and a q-tip might get it working again.

- Comment on Does a tiny motion tracking mouse thing exist at all? 1 week ago:
Hey, I think your mouse looks pretty cool. I love the speckled egg shell look. It looks kind of like a Robin’s Egg. I have some advice for you, if you’re interested. If you’re going to spray paint something like this, you can disassemble it first with a screwdriver. Take it apart and spray the case only. Same thing for keyboards, PCs, and anything else you can take apart fairly easily. Second, when you’re spraying it, suspend it from a string or two, or support it by a single stick from below. Don’t touch it until it’s dry.
As for your current situation, buy a new identical mouse and transfer the working guts from the new one to your customized one.

The price of copper is $4.44 per pound. Lady liberty is composed of 176,000 lbs of copper. Melting her down would be worth $781,440 which is less than it would cost to dismantle and melt her down. Basically she’s not worth the trouble.
- Comment on Was Donald Trump ever cool? 3 weeks ago:
I met him as a child in the mid 80s at a balloon festival in NJ. He was there with some other rich dude, might’ve been Warren Buffett. They were handing out those little spinning helicopter things to kids. He seemed pretty cool from a five year old’s perspective.

That unpredictability is what’s causing the stocks to tumble. People make money as stock prices fall by short selling. Basically borrowing stocks and selling them. If the price falls, the investor makes a profit.
- Comment on If a mysterious force secretly changed EVERY clock worldwide one minute forward, how long would it take until people notice, and how would people/governments react? 1 month ago:
People who look at timestamped data would notice immediately. Server logs, transaction logs, etc would all be missing a minute’s worth of data. Things that take a known amount of time would not be completed on time. Trains would be late, burritos would be under-microwaved, satellites would be in unexpected positions, etc. So some people would notice instantly, some may not notice at all.

Maybe you’re picking up on how sound is bouncing off the object, kind of like a really weak form of echolocation, and your brain doesn’t know how else to present that information other than to give you a visual.

Hey, I feel your pain. Tall guys need bigger cars. I don’t know what circumstances led to you being stuck in a car that doesn’t fit you but I’ve been there too. I hope you find yourself in something more suitable in the near future. I was able to finally get into a vehicle I’m comfortable in a few years ago and it’s life changing. I’m driving an Expedition.

- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 3 months ago:
I see your point, but my point is that each time the money changes hands, more of it will bubble up into the coffers of newly minted billionaires.
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 3 months ago:
If all the billionaires in the world instantaneously ceased to exist, and all their money were evenly distributed to everyone on earth, you would get a one time payment of about $1,769. Then what?
- Comment on If we're living in a simulation, why would the simulation creators allow the sims to ponder and speculate whether or not they live in a simulation? 4 months ago:
Maybe our types of thoughts are so primitive compared to them that they can’t even imagine that we’d have them.

- Comment on Why can't someone create a public alternative to health insurance in the USA? 4 months ago:
It’s technically possible but it would take a truly massive sum of money to get off the ground, and nobody is going to put up the capital knowing they’re not going to get a return on that investment. People don’t get the kind of money required to do this by making decisions like that.
