Progressive JPEG posted:whats the pause break button for anyway last time i used scroll lock it was because it did something special in excel pause/break i think worked in dos games or something it's good that there's lots of people experimenting with what we need, don't need, or can get by with a chord for on modern keyboards

blowfish posted:gamers actively want cables due to ~latency~ (see also: the first serious wireless gaming mouse coming out literally every year for the last decade) wireless mice are good because the cable tends to break wireless keyboards are like 99% pointless because you don't move them that far from the computer unless you're an htpc type and tv exists so you don't need an htpc so…

cinci zoo sniper posted:thing is these shits are massively expensive, its like $300-$600 for a decent one and even then you might have to wait, weeks, realistically months, for group buys to go down and poo poo, and probably even assemble it yourself (im a babby who has barely ever soldered electronics) if it’s anything like the ergodox infinity the soldering is very easy, that one is all through-hole, even the tiny fiddly LEDs

Schadenboner posted:Is there a good PC trackpad? I think windows makes it impossible to have a good trackpad scrolling is based on "lines" in the majority of apps, and the idea of horizontal scrolling is just not there at all there's some speed threshold for what counts as a line so if you scroll slower than that it just never scrolls dell ships trackpads that are literally half the size of good ones and while we're on it windows has dog poo poo support for keyboards too, you can't switch ctrl and caps-lock on a per-keyboard basis (just os-wide) and you either have to trust some registry hack or a third-party program
