I joined welding school and started taking TIG welding courses. I wanted to learn TIG welding and be able to do my own custom fabricationsc, like furniture. It felt like just the thing I was looking for. Something that is challenging, requires skill, something not everyone is able do. I’m doing great and enjoying every moment when practicing welding at school.

Recently I came accross laser welding and saw various welding youtubers reviewing the technology. It seems like it beats TIG in every way, except thick materials where one would probably use MIG/MAG anyway instead.

And that ruined my excitement a little bit about TIG, because anyone can pick up a laser welding machine, learn it in 20 minutes and make perfect welds, even better than TIG.

I’m trying to find out if it’s worth even investing more time and money in TIG. It’s starting to seem like TIG might get obsolete compared to Laser and that makes me feel discouraged.

What are your thoughts?

My review

I've had it for more than I year, use it daily.

What I like about it

• Glides smooth on surfaces
• Good tracking
• Long battery life
• It has a horizontal scroll wheel

Why I hate it

• I hate that it needs the special Logitech software to work properly
• It takes a few seconds for the software to pick up and apply configurations each time it's connected.
• The scroll wheel works inconsistently, often when scrolling fast, it doesn't pick up movements precisely or at the beginning of scroll it doesn't scroll at all. And this is not just me, I've seen others talk about this problem on MX Master 3s
• Doesn't work with a cable, it's wireless only.
• It's expensive garbage.
• Bunch of BS unnecessary features

The worst mouse I've had. I wish I hadn't purchased it and I don't understand why so many people like it. That's it.

Hi! I learned about AppArmor recently and I am setting up profiles for each of my applications on my server, but I'm not sure if I should also restrict python binary executable in local python environment for my django website, because AppArmor says: "is currently marked as a program that should not have its own profile.". Chat GPT says I should activate the environment, bypass the warning and create a profile, but I'm not sure, so I decided to ask if anyone knows better.

Hi! Can anyone suggest cool places to go and fun things to do in Finland for a tourist that doesn't like museums, historical buildings, etc, but is more interested in shopping, food, bars and fun physical activities?

I'm visiting Finland in March for a week and I am trying to make plans how to spend time there and I decided that it could be better to ask people that probably know better, because I don't know anything about Finland and internet just suggests things that seem boring to me. 😅

When I first opened Firefox after installing, I configured all the settings for myself. And I unchecked >Always check if Firefox is your default browser. It checked it back on by itself and now I can't uncheck it! It's grayed out.

I’ve been learning guitar for a while now. and currently my teacher is teaching me blues improvisation, i can play pentatonic scales in every mode, but I still don’t know what note is on what fret. I’ve brought that up a couple of times to my teacher, but it seems that it’s not really that important, should I try and learn where each note is or will I just naturally learn with time? I think if I knew where each note is, it would help me improvise better and not rely on just scale patterns.
