Italy is left of Bernie? I'm apparently ignorant, can you please tell me where is that intersection of "left of Bernie" and "adult children lives at home"?

Maybe I don't understand left of Bernie: Is he far right so left of him is still right?

    New research suggests it is slightly about the medium (for the kids, idk about adults it wasn't discussed). Physical books are better for attention span, apparently because they have "friction", i.e., you have to turn the page yourself so you "work" for the information, which makes information "valuable" so you hold onto it.

    I guess we can have crank-powered e-readers where you have to work to turn the page?

    I need everyone to look at what you can do with HTML5 "game engines". You want mouse poisiton? You want to know if the mouse is in on the page or not? Internet speed? Audio card codec?

    If a 13 years old using the free version of construct3 can do it, capitalism can do it.

    I still would never watch someone do sports but the other day I had this idea: Children sports must be more exciting to watch because children grow -> they have to adapt to their new arm length on the match day! Whoops his aim is off by 2 cm today, can he adapt in time??!

    Every person (who is not deemed invalid, criminals cannot vote haha what if they change the law right?) gets to vote + Everyone's vote counts the same = If you have one child your family has 3 votes, if your neighbor has 4 children they have 6 votes. In a democratic event, if they can come to an agreement, they choose what happens without your input.

    Maybe in the next generation your children will out-procreate their children, then you get to decide without your neighbor's input. How isn't it fuck-based?

    This is a real problem though. Democracy is a fuck-based system. Uneducated people fuck without protection more ofthen than educated people, which gives them more voting power. Minorities (mental or otherwise) are only protected if the big-fuckers want it, since by design majority wins.

    Whenenver I try to use my mouse without a dongle (direct connection through bluetooth), I get the situation in the picture.

    I'd like to give you more information but there isn't a pattern. It happens in the middle of using it. It happens when I don't move for a while, then suddenly move my mouse. It happens if I was using the scroll wheel for a while and started moving the mouse again. It has no learnable pattern.

    The mouse works perfectly if I use the dongle. Mouse worked (probably still works) perfectly in Windows. I'm on Linux Mint (Zara)

    I tried what little (4 threads) information I could find about this topic so I'm here.

    Any solutions?

    Edit: Thank you everyone but the solution to the problem is bigger than the problem. I thought it would be an easy solution but I need this USB slot once every 3 months, I can live with that :D
