So I bought a new mouse, of course it came with RGB nonsense. Before purchasing I checked it could be disabled.

Software to control RGB? 300MB. Who knows what the hell else that’ll be doing.

Plugged it into my Linux laptop, download OpenRGB, 1.7MB application that supports more than just this brand. Turn off the rgb, click save to device.

I used to turn to custom roms to extend the life of my phone. My first smartphone didn’t get an official update after I purchased it for example. The custom roms often made the phone snappier too.

These days I’m on a mid range Samsung phone released almost 4 years ago and it’s still getting updates.

The Android app has done this for years too.

After connecting my (non Microsoft) email account to the Outlook Android app I noticed the login location was geolocated in the USA… I live in Australia.

Unfortunately there’s no way to turn it off.
