Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I lost my mouse a couple times and bought an exact replacement, then found the old one. You can see the evolution of the logo (lemmy.world)

I got some random POS for $10 that has 2 thumb buttons for forward and back. I think it also has the left/right wheel clicky action that I never use because that shit is awkward.

How's the weight on that one though? The one I got has weights you can add/remove, but even with all of them in it's light as shit. I want it to be more weighty.

G502. Hefty, lots of buttons, CHUNKY metal wheel, weights, everything you need. Can find wired ones on sale between 25 and 40 bucks.

I’ve replaced the pads on mine a couple times, the rubber on the thumb rest has a hole worn it it to the plastic, and the braided cable is all frayed and stuff. I’ve had the thing for the past 10 years at least. I know new ones are that cheap and that I should just get a new one at this point but the thing is just a workhorse.
