As a repair company we use these on the daily. Small error in the article: it’s not true that due to potential power demand, hall-effect sticks can’t be used one-on-one in current controllers.

They absolutely can and we use them all the time in that application. Tmr is slightly more sensitive and thusly more accurate but that effect is hardly noticeable. Not in any meaningful way to prioritize tmr over hall, anyway.

We do use Tmr more in controllers where the trigger sensor also has hall-effect. Less interference that way.

So they both solve different problems for us and are therefore used in different scenarios.

Sounds like mondays!

Laptop repair guy here! This problem is common in consumer grade laptops. As far as I am concerned, it’s purposefully weakly designed, because these break a LOT.

Not the hinge is broken, but the mounting points for the screws that keep the hinge in place. Sometimes it breaks on the bottom case, sometimes it breaks on the screen side.

We fix these issues regularly with epoxy (and massive skillz, lol). With most hinges, you can adjust the force a little lighter to relieve the pressure on the mounting points. That way it doesn’t fail again, after repair.

You are not wrong buddy 👍🏻

I understand his reach. What I don’t understand is people failing to think critically and falling for whatever shit they come across. On the other hand there’s the proven lies told to us by our governments. If Rogan’s stories had any negative consequences, it’s equally a failure of our politicians. We should not silence dumb people. We should educate our kids. Problem will be solved in a generation or two.

How anyone could equate Joe Rogan to a news channel is beyond me. It’s a podcast for god sakes. Just. Plain. Stupid. Entertainment. So yeah, pretty stupid action to take his music off Spotify. That whole cancel culture thing is insane and needs to end already.

Can confirm: ate toast, feeling pretty af.

Awww, my first electric chair! So cute! ❤️

Three days already? I live under the rock where T. Swifties plane does not land, apparently.

Man, this stupid meme has only one logical conclusion: “How does Taylor Swift travel to the top floors of the WTC?”

Voiceover: “Shell proceeded to walk away with billions of dollars without cleaning up the pollution”.

Ol trusty rag on a stick never let me down
