There's a few things you can do to help with raiding:

  1. Consider optimizing your HUD. Move important information closer to the center of your screen and less important information further away. This helps it so you don't have to keep looking all over the place to keep tabs on what's going on. Can even make a separate raiding HUD preset and hide some of the information or hot bars you don't need in raids.
  2. Turn down spell effects. I forget where exactly the setting is, but you can set it to show only important spell effects from your party members and no spell effects from those outside your party. I have some macros set up so I can quickly swap between shiny light spam and clean reduced spell effects when I actually need to see what's going on.
  3. Consider rearranging your hot bar. Sometimes you get used to pianoing your fingers across your keyboard and don't realize there's some commonly used spells and abilities you can move over to be more accessible. If you want to go even further, you can consider upgrading your peripherals. I really like having an MMO mouse with the 12 buttons on the side. I have it mapped to my hot bars so I can cast everything with my thumb on my mouse plus maybe a modifier key.
  4. Given all of that, a fair bit of it comes down to just learning. As you learn and get better at your rotation you have to spend less time focusing on what to press when and you get a better feel for your cool downs without having to watch the timer as closely. And as you do a fight more and more you just get used to not only what's happening but also what's coming up which allows you to potion and plan accordingly.

American Fanta is also incredibly different than European Fanta. Orange Fanta in Europe is something akin to a carbonated orange juice. Orange Fanta in America tastes closer to something like orange hard candy.

Hollow Knight gets you a good 2/3.

If tap water freaks OP out, they could maybe try one of those basic water filter pitchers. Pour water in, it runs through charcoal which pulls out anything bad, clean water comes out.

So in regards to specifically VR, I'm just going to make the blind assumption that your headset is a quest 2 or something along those lines. For the time being on campus, you might just want to consider running VR through a physical USB-C link cable rather than jumping through so many hoops on the router setup. A decent cable will run you like $20 US or how ever that translates to local. The quality of the connection is generally about the same as wireless, the main drawback is usually a wired link can't put through enough energy to recharge you headset on top of the data transfer, so your battery will slowly drain over a few hours. There are also link cables that you can additionally plug your charger into so you don't slowly run out of battery, but I think the build quality on those is often sketchy. Either way something to consider.

I think that would be more difficult because that is a different much smaller switch if I remember correctly.

For your mouse double click issue, I have a g600 and ran into the same thing. It's due to a teeny tiny copper plate in the switch degrading over time. I'm not confident in my soldering skills to swap out the whole switches, but I was able to buy some new switches for like $5, pop open the little plastic switch box, carefully pull out the little copper plate with tweezers, pop open the switch on my mouse, and carefully replace the little copper plate with the new one. Worked like a charm.

I'm someone that's up to date on the One Piece anime, so episode 1073. I've watched 3 episodes of the live action so far and I've actually been really enjoying it. It's been hitting the major plot points of the anime/manga but taken decent liberties with a lot of the the smaller details and how things happen along the way. Also the characters don't feel like an exact one to one match to their anime/manga counterparts but keep the general spirit of the characters while being entertaining in their own right. It hasn't been moment for moment recreation of One Piece into live action but rather a proper adaptation of the spirit of One Piece to a live action format told in a way that people who are more fans of love action rather than anime will enjoy. If youre someone that watches and enjoys the anime, it's a fun retelling of the first 60ish episodes and a great way to re-experience them as long as you don't mind that the details will be different. If you're someone that hasn't seen One Piece or isn't even a fan of anime it's just a fun show in its own right and a great way to dip your feet into the world of One Piece.
