    Yeah...I hope after this triad of hot mess happening to my dominant hand wrist, I can even still hold a firearm proficiently.

    The real concern should be can you squeeze a tube of lube.


    With that said weak hand shooting is an easy transition, once you remember to keep using your dominant eye.

    They do the same procedure on the left wrist afterwards.

    very reason my trainer told me that get a square sight and get a kydex holster.

    if someone has a hard and thick safariland 6xxx holster, they can rack it easily with one hand off of holster

    So I got a new computer a few years ago and paid out the nose for it. Within the first month a speaker went out. Then about a year ago, the other speaker went out. Then a dead pixel on the screen. Turns out I fortunately got a warranty. I just had everything replaced today and am happy that my stupid expensive computer is finally working like it's supposed to.

    On the speakers though, looks like having it in the garage wasn't a great idea. That's all metal shavings stuck to the laptop magnets. I know I didn't have it in the garage before the first speaker went out though. Anyway, watch what you put in the garage, especially if you paid 3x what you should have for it.

    ^ can you tell us which brand of computer if you bought the entire computer?
    if built, which part brands to avoid?
    thanks.

    Pro tip: Whatever your computer was ingesting you also had the opportunity to ingest as well.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    Dell Precision 3530, factory built. The solid state hard drive is amazing! Everything else is standard quality that I'd expect from a $500 computer.

    Yep, my wife said the same thing, so I made sure to ask the repair tech if they made a respirator for laptops. I've breathed in WAY more than whatever this computer has been around.

    On a side not, my phone is now in the shop, also for blown speakers, and I'm betting that it'll be full of metal shavings on the magnets as well.
