  1. trying to use your ring finger on the right mouse button is like driving with both feet, and it's very difficult to accurately press both buttons at once with the middle finger hanging in the middle

    that's probably true because you've been using your middle finger for the right mouse button your entire life

    once you do it a bit you realize that your ring finger isn't actually any less articulate or less capable of clicking than your middle finger

    regarding the space issue maybe your mouse is really tiny or s/t but it works fine for me


  2. is there a way to liquidate a large number of shitty items?

    I have dozens of crates/commons/uncommons/bad rares and honestly listing them for $.03 each isnt worth it with the steam client being what it is

    and I need to be ready for the new meepo set


  3. socially conservative ideas are completely fucking archaic and operate on the principles of enforcing arbitrary morality through puritan laws. we're not in iran or the 17th century anymore. that kind of stuff is unnecessary.

    it doesn't matter if you voted for romney, obama or kim jong-un: the republican party's social policy is completely fucking retarded and indefensible

    edit: and because this is extent of the conservative party's philosophy

    I mean don't get me wrong, liberals want everything to be "fair". For social policies, it usually works out. Economically, however, the whole fairness system falls flat on its face. Multiple countries tried to take that route and looked what happened to them. By human nature, people are lazy, and if I get paid the same amount working hard sweating as the guy who's just sitting on his ass, what's the point of working and innovating?


  4. creating just as much counterplay

    no it doesn't sorry

    how do you counterplay void's ult?

    zeus' ult?

    phantom assassin in general?

    what kind of weakness does abbadon have that you could possibly amplify?

    ursa?

    night stalker?

    balance isn't essential to competitive play at the highest level. good design is. and dota doesn't have it

    there is no emphasis whatsoever on individual skill

    yeah, you can be really creative in dota and most heroes are relevant in at least one strategy

    but none of that matters when the most complicated play in the game is "hey use your ranged targeted aoe stun and then I'll nuke him for 1000 and they'll be out of the game"

    I'm not going to defend some of riot's most recent balance changes but they're still a million times better than "we've introduced a new hero whose ultimate passively gives him global attack range"

    I am also really not liking the idea of a skill-based sport require tons of time or money. Anything less and you will be at a disadvantage before your abilities as a player and as a team are even considered.

    what does that even mean?

  5. the problem is that they're not uniformly thick -- the ends are much wider than the center, creating an uneven weight distribution that just happens to put half the monitor's weight right on top of the disc drive. if you can get a piece of wood, rigid plastic, or some other sheet of strong material, you could put it on top of the xbox and then put the monitor on that so that the pressure is moved to the corners of the case, which should be fairly sturdy. ideally the plank itself would be resting on something other than the xbox, but it should get you out of a pickle


  6. fraps is incredibly straightforward and works really well. obviously it's paid but it's one of the best programs out there. if you're not willing to pay you should at least pirate it

    you're not going to find anything cross-platform. sorry

    OBS is also worth trying out at the least.
