Oooh. I'm sure I can find those in Korea. Thanks!

So, the capacitor can mitigate the spring weakening. Good to know. Replacing a cap is probably much easier than taking the switches apart and bending the springs.

Oooh, some of those sound like a really good idea. I'm only using mine for forward and back in browser, but next tab sounds good. Copy and paste, too.

willing to solder in new switches you can get better quality ones that will outlast the rest of the mouse for ~$5-10.

That might be worth it. I'll have to see if I can find those switches.

I didn't know it was a capacitor. I thought it was bent springs. I managed to fix one once by opening up the switches and bending the springs back, but it went back to double clicking within a month, and the process was not easy. I've got huge hands, and those switches are tiny.

604

That's the one I'm using now. I like the buttons, too. I also find I only really use them in some pretty niche cases, so I can probably do without.

Yeah, maybe work on making their switches not start double-clicking after a couple of years first.

I'm on my third-or-fourth one that has done this to me. Once this one gets too bad (they inevitably do) I am through with them. It's a shame because I really do like their peripherals. The mouse that convinced to keep buying them was an excellent device that lasted a very long time and I only replaced because it was a dinosaur. I used their solar powered keyboard for a decade-and-a-half, too, until I accidentally dropped something on it and broke it. Now, the switches in their mice die on me after a year or two without fail. They've clearly cheaped out on components. Fuck em. Goodbye Logitech. I will not miss their software.

Ahh, but with a billion, you would be important enough.

I also have no clue whether Ethiopians need any rice

The Ethiopian famine was 30 years ago. Not that they haven't had troubles off-and-on since then.

Sleep with pornstar. Excessive hush money. Boom!

I only pirate music and books anymore. I do consume it all. Well, most of it. Sometimes I'll download a series of books and not jive with the first one or something. The music always gets listened to. More than once, too! I'm easy to please. Or I have good taste.

Ahh yes, definitely. I should have said that isn't strictly a traditional shmup. Bangai O definitely has many elements of shmups, but the level design and many of the mechanics are quite unique to it.
