Mouse rant

in #rant6 years ago

I'm a little bitter right now, I bought a new mouse the other day, though it came in a set with a keyboard, but I still needed the mouse. I got the mouse because my last one was double clicking the middle button, definitely worn out from how frequently I used it. But this one I received a couple days ago and it is double clicking the left button, definitely not worn out, seems to just be a shitty mouse.

This is both frustrating and, just realizing it now, dangerous. Frustrating because whenever I click something, like on twitter or gab, it will leave that post and go back onto the page. Second, it will open applications twice. Finally, while playing OSRS, I try to close my bank or any other interface, and my character goes off running even though I don't want that.

And it is dangerous because, imagine you're on a place, maybe something like reddit where the posts are basically links, or your search engine. You click a new page, and then it goes to whatever link is where you clicked on that new page. It could have been a dangerous site, and now your computer is fucked. gg pc

So now I'm gonna have to buy another mouse.
