And how'd you like to be the pilot who always got the starting procedure wrong on this:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convair_B-36_Peacemaker ? Known as "that fucker" by the maint crew |
I wonder how many times I'm going to hit the "Backspace" key trying to go back one page before it finally sinks in that Chrome doesn't work that way any more...
|
If you're not running a mouse with at least 10 buttons you're doing it wrong. Programmable backspace at the thumb tip is awesome. I also use the other button for forward.
|
I normally use the left-right tilt of the scroll wheel for the browser back and forward buttons, but I'm working from home today and left my wireless mouse at work on Friday.
|
get autohotkey and create a script to use your scroll lock button as a back button.
|
I'd think that having mouse buttons mapped to keyboard keys would get annoying in a hurry, but most 5 button or higher) mice can have their buttons mapped to specific behaviors. On both my MS Intellimouse and my Steelseries Sensai Raw, I have the left and right sides mapped to the back and forward functions in web browsers, and within TF2 I have them mapped to primary and tertiary weapons. (pressing down on the scroll wheel is the secondary weapon).
This is the present mouse: https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...b553e7e7d0.png https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...dde38789fd.png Within software, I have the "front" and "back" buttons on each side mapped identically, essentially emulating a five-button mouse. The buttons are too small and too close together for me to effectively use them separately- five buttons is really the maximum which I can comfortably use without making mistakes. (The triangle button below the scroll wheel isn't really a "button" per se, it lets you flip between mapping / sensitivity presets on the fly.) |

Wait you upgraded from the MS mouse that you had been using for ever? I remember when you bought like 10 of the same mouse off ebay a while back.
When I moved to NY, I got rid of the enormous desk I'd been using since 2000, which was made from a very heavy wooden door that was left over from the construction of Harris Broadcast's new HQ in Mason, OH. I replaced it with a smaller, lighter desk which I purchased from Ikea. What I wasn't thinking about at the time I bought the desk was that its surface, being a fairly uniform semi-gloss white, made an extremely poor tracking surface for an optical mouse. And, sadly, the MS Intellimouse, being a very old design, didn't work on it. I started reading reviews from people who used optical mice on this exact desk (I love how you can find any special-interest you can dream of on the internet), and found similar tales of woe, which ended with people buying a few specific "laser" mice. (Specifically, mice which use an infrared light source, rather than a visible light source as with the Intellimouse.) I tried out a few of them, and settled on the SteelSeries Sensai Raw, mostly because it was comfortable in the hand and the buttons were all in familiar places. I still have the bulk-pack of Intellimice, in case I ever buy a different desk. And I still use them at work, where my desk is topped with a sheet of mottled grey laminate which has a nice, textured surface. EDIT: How the fuck do you people remember which mouse I bought a bulk-pack of several years ago? I can't even remember my own name sometimes. |

MS Intellimouse https://store.donanimhaber.com/bc/df...7AD99F50.jpeg? I had one years ago, that thing was a champ for counter-strike during the early 2000s I now has this irreplaceable logitech G5 mouse. If it were to ever break I would probably shed a tear :cry: http://images10.newegg.com/NeweggIma...04-076-21.jpg? |

Use a mouse pad?
Seriously, when I'm gaming, my mouse is all over the friggin desk. I have utterly no idea how anyone can play an FPS on a mouse pad.

I have small notebooks for every member on mt.net. I keep interesting facts about each user in it. It allows me to easily look up things they have said in the past. I keep the books on a shelf organized in the dewey decimal system.

Is this your old mouse?
The SteelSeries, to be fair, is just as good. At this point, I don't think I have a strong preference for one vs. the other, aside from the whole glossy-desk conundrum. The side buttons on the MS mouse are a tad larger and easier to operate, though the Steel's calibration software (which lets you set up different resolutions and then switch between them with a click) is great if you occasionally play Sniper in TF2. You can scope in, aim roughly, click to low-sensitivity mode, fine-aim, take the headshot, and then click back to regular mode in a very seamless and intuitive way. |
