I am using this command here xset m 1/2 8 but something I noticed is that I have to do it every time I log in. Is there a more permanent way of changing my mouse sensitivity?
Also what do the 1/2 and 8 pertain to for the mouse speed?

I also have a question of what the numbers pertain to as well. – Taylor Austin Mar 22 '18 at 23:17

I'll answer the numbers part: The first number is for acceleration and the second is for the threshold. From man xset:
By default the pointer (the on-screen representation of the pointing
device) will go `acceleration' times as fast when the device travels
more than `threshold' mickeys (i.e. would-be pixels) in 10 ms, includ‐
ing a small transition range ...
