Logitech G19s Gaming Keyboard














Loves: Youtube in the little screen while waiting for stuff. Changing colour to match profiles when i play different games. REALLY like the feel of the keys. Weight is nice and it really sticks to my desk. This keyboard has a very premium feel.

Cons: Spacebar was squeaky, had to pop it up and put it back to solve it. No mechanical keys.

Remarks: I liked this more than i thought i would, took me some time to get it due to the steep price (thanks to Laurence for helping me get it 30% off). If i'd knew i'd like it so much, i would have got it much earlier regardless of discount.

Corsair Vengeance K90




Loves: Simple basic mechanical keyboard. Love the brushed aluminium.
Cons: Just a mechanical keyboard, doesn't add much to my productivity. No custom colours.

Roccat Apuri



Loves: Keeps cables organized, simple hub that is powered and convenient to get to. Makes my desk look more techie

Cons: Bungie doesn't really do much, can't change colour to other than blue.

Logtiech G600 Gaming Mouse

Pros: Lighting can change to match profiles, combined with my G19s, i have a great combination. Increases productivity. I have about 24 more buttons on a mouse. Love the white, doesn't get dirty as one might think.

Cons: Multi keys are really useful thought it may get some time getting used to, lots of times while playing FPS i accidentally click the keys. 2nd Right Mouse Button or G-Shift button not used at all and i kept clicking it accidentally at the start.

Logitech G700 Gaming Mouse



Pros: very good mouse with just the right number of buttons.

Cons: My left click stopped working well after awhile. Funny when you plug in and/or plug out, something funky happens with the drivers. No coloured lights.

Saitek Cyborg RAT 7 Gaming Mouse


Pros: Very very nice build. Super customizable. Love the metal construction. Wow factor when people first see it.

Cons: Not enough buttons for me, kept accidentally right clicking stuff as it is very very sensitive. Software can't beat logitech though its sufficient

Choose the sex of your child

*WARNING: MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY*

I have tried this method and it worked for me (both times)! Thought i was the only one who knew about it but apparently its common knowledge already, just the all the gynecologists don't want to discuss it. They say "don't play God" etc.

Principles aside, here is what extracted from the book "How to Choose the Sex of Your Baby by Landrum B. Shettles". You can get her book here.

Fundamentals

The male Y-sperm are said to:

  • Swim faster
  • Die faster
  • Are smaller (don't see how this matters)

The female X-sperm are said to:
  • Swims slow (like female drivers) 
  • More hardy, can survive better inside the woman
  • Are bigger (erm yeah, so?)

Boy:

Do it Doggie style

Deeper penetration inserts the male sperm closer to the egg, this allows the male sperm to reach the egg in a shorter amount of time. Their exposure to the 'harmful environment is reduced. 

Females should achieve Orgasm

Females orgasm makes environment more friendly due to the increase in cervical fluid (alkaline). This gives the faster male sperm higher endurance.

Have sex on the day you Ovulate

Actually, it should be just AFTER you Ovulate, like the minute you do. Its quite straightforward, the male sperm will get there faster and win.

Guys drink coffee

Consuming caffeine half an hour before sex would give the male sperm a boost.Hmm never heard of this before, shrugs.


Girl:


Do it missionary style

The shallow penetration of this position causes the sperm to be deposited further from the egg. So the female sperm will have the advantage as they are more resistant to the environment. 

Females should avoid Orgasm

This makes the environment more inhospitable for the male sperm. Horrible way to fight...

Have sex 2 to 4 days before ovulation

Make everyone wait (just like girls do...) so eventually the male sperm will just die once the egg descends. Also, to make things worse, just before ovulation, the environment gets worse. 

--


Here you go, good luck!


The more i read this, the more i see how certain behaviors are already infused at this early stage for women...
