edit: and i havent unbundled the wire too, its just rediculously long I got that problem with my mouse.. I had to use a couple of zipties (one at each end of the bundle instead of one in the middle) to tie up like 4-6 feet worth the cord. Wish batteries weren't such a pain in the *** and/or expensive, I'd go all wireless.. I don't like cords. They're ugly, they take up space and no matter how well you organize them, when you go to like take the computer apart to clean it, they're still all tangled up everywhere.
wireless mouse + rechargeable batteries, I use a wireless mouse on my laptop, and the damn wireless dongle keeps going out before the battery does. (on my third one) I haven't looked yet to see if logitech has a bluetooth one.
the single AA in it is supposed to last a year now, it's probably not responsive enough for gaming but for a everyday mouse it works well imo. currently I'm on the M310, but I've seen newer/better models.
You could always use a wireless for every day use and a wired for games. Most things are usb now you could effectively run a powered hub to the back of the pc, mount it on the desk and plug everything in it, to make it easier to move the tower.

I had a wireless mouse, it's the reason with income tax I got a (wired) gaming mouse.

I refuse to use anything wireless on a computer.
I used to have a wireless keyboard and mouse but after having it die on me in the middle of some important ... well... anything lol... I decided to chuck the piece of ***and invest in a decent gaming mouse and keyboard.

What kind of music do you consider it? And what kind do you normally prefer? (Yes, this isn't the music thread but I don't post much outside of this one. >_>)

My current stuff is like Hollywood Undead, Tech N9ne, Flaw, Hourcast, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Korn, Slipknot, Stone Sour etc.

I'm going to invest in a decent wireless set when I build my next system, then get a nice responsive wired one that's plugged in and easily accessible for such events or if I want something with a little more response.
I like wireless as I usually can go sit in the bed with it, and with larger screens getting cheaper I can be super lazy.
I use a laptop for now though (needed something portable, while in school) but I'll probably replace it when I can afford to, as it probably won't last another 2 years, stupid thing runs very hot and I've even replaced the thermal paste, the only other option I'd have at this point is attempting to have somebody who can metalwork make me a case for the bottom half of the laptop that has extra fans in it, sure it would be a little thicker but hell. (could also make it so it holds both batteries and just has a switch, that'd be awesome, guess I could build a circuit to make it autoswitch before it goes to the motherboard's jack, it certainly is possible.

You'd have to listen to their older music to get anything close to harder rock. They mellowed out a lot over the years.
Even this one from '03 might not be hard enough for your liking:
Sadly, my favorite song from their album in '02 doesn't even seem to be posted anywhere. But it was awesome, with a full-on metal style guitar solo in the middle. The Red Death was the song title, if you're curious to look. (YouTube only has really sucky quality live-recorded versions that you can't hear at all.)
EDIT: Nothing wrong with your choices either. I'm not into some of them, but Breaking Benjamin, Stone Sour, Slipknot, and even some Hollywood Undead is okay in my book.
EDIT again because yay, I found it after all! Click for Edgar Allan Poe awesomeness.

at least the guy on the phone was nice enough to give me a credit for the week that we were having problems lol.

I'm a horrible person. D: Just realized. My husband and I were leaving the grocery store, walking out to our car. I was pushing the cart and just chattering, and I saw a truck and an SUV-ish looking thing backing up at the same time out of two spaces pretty much opposite each other, about 3-4 spaces ahead of where we were walking. They didn't have enough room to both get out, so I just casually told my husband "Well, that isn't going to end well." He was looking at me instead of at them, so when I said that he looked up, realized we were about to witness an accident, and ran up yelling "No!" and waving his arms to try to stop it. They hit each other anyways, but he tried.
When you are about to witness an accident, for goodness sake do something. Yell, try to stop it, try something. Don't just stand there and watch like a moron and tell your partner that you predict a messy ending. /facepalm /shame

I would've done the same thing >.> If people are being dumb and not paying attention it's their own fault :/

I would have thrown the mango in your shopping bag into the back windshield of either vehicle. The loud thud and splattering of the fruit would make that person instantly stop and be all WTF!? stopping the accident.

While trying to warn them is certainly the nice thing to do, you shouldn't feel that bad about it, either. Not everyone is programmed to react to things like that the same way. It's not like you witnessed a child standing behind one of them about to get run over. You saw two (or more) adults in vehicles who were both not paying enough attention to their mirrors/blind spots/etc. to avoid an easily avoidable situation.
Besides, you DID do something. You told your husband. It was your husband's reaction to try to stop it. If you hadn't said anything to him, nothing would have been done at all. (Yeah, yeah, call it rationalization if you want.)

sorry i only speak english :|
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
