A funny input device story(OT)
« on: Sat, 13 August 2016, 03:18:57 »
Once I was having trouble with a Steel Series product. I looked up their phone number on google. Turns out they were a block from me at the time. I could have just gone there. So I call, it rings many times...... A kid answers. I started telling him about my issue. He says hold on, and puts his hand over the phone i assume. He says hey Daryl, I did not know we have a phone, Do we have a phone here? I said apparently so buddy since you are on it! HAHAHAHA! I just remembered that story tonight when input devices have re-sparked my interest at the moment.

The only Steelseries product that I have had is a glass mouse pad that is 15 years old and still works great.
"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.

It was not about Steel Series Per Se. It humored me he asked if they had a Telephone while he was on it! That was about the gist of the company though. I found their mice to be very problematic in functionality. Like not working. So that might explain how dense the guy was to begin with. Perhaps others had better luck with their products. Apparently so.
