Great review of several high end mice, wired and wireless. He found no correlation between wires and latency. Ultimately, he concludes that the most important properties of the mouse are weight and feel.

I don’t like the feeling of the cable dragging on the desk. Or the cable snagging on the monitor stand, or anything else on the desk.
I also prefer the aesthetics of a wireless mouse. One less cable to manage. The charge cable is tucked away and only comes out every week or so to charge overnight.
Yeah, my keyboard has a cable but my keyboard doesn’t move, and it’s a pretty sexy (and heavy) cable so it’s different than a mouse cable.
As for latency, from what I understand in many cases a wireless mouse can have less latency than some wired mice. So that’s nice too.
I guess the main downside is weight but that has never bothered me. That said, I’m not a competitive fps player, but even so some wireless mice are quite light.
I agree with everything except a wireless mouse. I have a magnetic usb “nub” that plugs into the mouse so when I need to charge it every couple of weeks it’s as simple as moving the mouse near enough the magnetic cable and it pops into place.
For me, the benefits of a wireless mouse far outweigh the imperceptible-to-me lag from the 2.4ghz dongle 10cm away in clear view. The only downside I can see is the weight of the battery, but I’m not a competitive FPS player so I’m good.
I think you mean “Model types”
lol this is such a classic Linux trope
Person A: I can’t seem to get this to work! Arg!
Person B: I have been running this for years with no issues. It just works!
It wasn’t until windows shat itself and I couldn’t boot into it anymore that I took my Linux drive more seriously.
Maybe it’s a Wayland joke?
Today I updated and now one of my cores is at 100% and the fans on my laptop won’t shut up.
Oh man. I remember when this came out. I bought the deluxe vinyl and listened to it like mad. This song got me every time.
You’d have to be pretty rich to have that be a problem.
You’re talking about the internet, here…
I wonder about ping. Will it ever be on par with Ethernet for online gaming?
You could buy an Apple branded polishing cloth. Pretty much the same as a donation.
Is there any advantage to having extra ports over a dongle with all of those at once?
Ignorance.
Totally. The classic MBA move of firing important people who’s role he doesn’t understand, seeing short term gains from lack of salaries, and exits the company just in time for it to tank because it can’t operate without those people. Walks away with a few cool million, on to his next company to suck dry.
The first virus was made in 1986 for IBM personal computers. Nothing is free from computer viruses. Not macOS, not iOS, not Android, not GNU/Linux, not freeBSD, not even an IBM PC from the 80s. All software can be exploited. The only reason GUI software is the most exploited is because it is what people use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_(computer_virus)
GUI is not only intended for office tasks. In fact, I would argue that many office tasks are better suited for command line, but I’ll agree that nobody knows how to do that anymore.
GUI was always best suited for artists. Apple has, for a long time, especially since OSX, been explicit about catering to artists. Can you imagine editing video in a terminal? Or editing a layered image? Or producing music?
Thanks! I will try all of these suggestions.
What is the value in federating Nextcloud instances? Sharing calendar info and stuff like that?
