i added 2mm o-rings to my keyboard and they've definitely made it easier to type without accidentally bottoming out and jarring my fingers

heartily recommend them to anyone that has this problem!

they also make it slightly quieter fwiw

Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face?
the case, they might have different switches too, but if you’re posting in this thread you’re probably already checked which switches you’re getting. firmware should be the same.

edit: and the qd is also the same board but with different keycaps (dual legends), also the refurbs are fine.

I got the Logitech MX Master 3 and it's very neat, but also my frail thumb and index finger are not used to driving a chunk across a desktop anymore.

Horizontal thumb scroll is neat, trying to figure out other uses for it besides switching apps or desktops.

The massive downside: Compared to trackpad stuff it's that much more effortful. I wish my old tragic pad didn't give up the ghost.

edit: I didn't do the Ergo because I would constantly gently caress up and try to use the trackball with three fingers, without using clicking or the wheel, due to behaviors learned from the tragic pad. If the ergo ball would click-in, I think I would've stuck with it.

i had to use one of these once at a library for their card catalog. it was awful. pretty sure it was mechanical, though!

if you're so brain damaged you can't handle a regular mouse, why didn't you just get a new trackpad?

also, a great use for the horizontal thumb scroll: horizontal scrolling

the new ones are force feedback, rather than mechanical clicking, and i hate it

if you have a newish macbook pro, it's the same thing in the trackpad there, it pisses me off

if there's something that's exactly the same as the mechanical tragic pad, i'll take it

heard they finally brought back automatic mode switching for the scroll wheel in the master 3 but do you need to install Logitech software to get that feature?

that looks quite nice, and might get it since my other mouse crapped out, and my backup's scroll wheel is loud af for some reason. i used to use a magic trackpad at work for like 8 years, but then it kept disconnecting. the spring inside the battery compartment can be reinforced with a folded piece of tinfoil, which solved the connection problem temporarily, but just kept getting worse and worse. i tried 3 other magic trackpads that were here, and they all had the same problem

at work i'm now using a wireless logitech m557. it randomly disconnects every once in a while, but comes back. other than that it's okay. it also seems to have the sideways scrolling feature, but doesn't seem to work in macOS at least
