thats a good deal

It's a good thing that market is so saturated that there'd always be a cheap uncomplicated mouse with all your features, unless you're some sort of MMO mouse person.

That said, a company can probably still sell this to the government with enough lobbying. Those chumps love wasting cash on subscriptions they don't need (looking at you, Adobe Cloud).

That's why they'll make it so Windows requires your mouse to have official Microsoft drivers for compatibility.

How do I click an option when my clicks are already used up? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

The mouse works only in upgrade windows

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Tab over to it and hit Enter

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

hits TAB

New window appears saying I am out of key presses and to select a payment option

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Better hope you don't run out of screen minutes.

It’s a meme now. Give it a few years and it’ll be more than a meme.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

One man's meme is another monster's inspiration

Vim users: *entirely unaffected*

[–] [email protected] 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They won't even see the ad because they can't get out of Vim.

This is close enough to reality that I'm irritated.

The lack of close button makes me believe this is not true.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

is Logitech known for this? Not this exactly, I get that it's a meme, but enshitification in general? I have a Logitech mouse and haven't experienced anything that's particularly money hungry other than the initial pricing and I think a twitch popup or something stupid

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah this was a thing until we "learned" that it was was just a big miss understanding...that Miss was big. To my understanding, they leaked something said during a management meeting where they say it was a hilarious joke... But we all agree it wasn't.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Logitech "floated" the idea of subscription mouses (aka: tried to see how bad the market resistance would be). They want to do it so bad.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

the mere process of presenting such an idea to the internet was enough to make me never buy logi-junk again

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's OK you're not missing anything, the last three Logitech mice I had died to switch failure in like 6 months so they're not worth buying anyway

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (14 children)

Which is sad. I liked the hardware I've had from them, but I haven't bought new in a few years. The mouse has treated me much better than Razers I've had over the years. Sad that their quality has (predictably) started circling the drain as well.

Also, what mouse or brand do you recommend buying instead?

I'd like to unironically place this popup on public office laptops in order for users to collect themselves and stop being afraid of touchpads and keyboard commands.

Old ones were absolute cheeks, modern ones are much better, a mouse will always be preferred. Bonus points if it's wired.

I want to know what priority support looks like for a mouse.

Like what questions would you ask? How would they troubleshoot before sending you to tier 3 support?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Enhanced clicks use AI to help predict where you want to move the mouse and pre-clicks it, saving some time and effort .

The elite plan allows game cheats in selected games developed by trusted partners .

Not at all responsible for wrong clicks.

Support helps when there is a noticeable pattern of wrong clicks and refers you to training

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

the Logitech mouse can change loadouts depending on the game you're playing but it doesn't work for all games (really annoying) so that would be my guess

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

10000 clicks a month? Man I might do that in a day or 2

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like someone is getting the unlimited plan!

They missed so many opportunities to make it actually a nightmare. Adding these should help...

Standard plan:

  • 2 DPI settings. (50, 32000)

Premium plan:

  • 3 DPI settings! (50, 100, 32000)
  • Ad Free!

Pro-gamer plan ($45/mo)

  • Mouse acceleration toggle
  • 1 customizable DPI settings (more available @ $5/mo each)
  • Middle mouse click functionality unlocked! (Bound to backspace. Customizable binding @ $2/mo)
  • AI tooltips to suggest when/where to click next. ($5/Mo to disable)
  • Cloud backup*

*Requires Internet connection. Mouse falls back to standard plan and settings when not connected. Requires device reboot to re-enable subscription after disconnect.

Edit: formatting

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

How long could a mouse take to reboot, Michael? An hour?

Thanks Satan

move those decimals over one.

Add a free tier and base it around gacha mechanics.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Every now and then there'd be a duck hunt bird flying over your windows and it would stop turning only if clicked. This is accumulative, meaning you being AFK gives you two, three ducks flying over your desktop, up to the arbitrary limit of 255.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

Ah yes and once you've reached max duck you get a 90 second ad for essential oils or you're free to click all the ducks.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

I'd just get a mouse that doesn't have this bullshit before paying for this. I'll buy used if needed. I'm not subscribing to a fucking mouse.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

What will Premium Plus get for me?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

idk I've been thinking about getting the standard plan. 10k clicks isn't much, but If i quit Leauge, then I think i can get by. And I can't stand the ad supported basic tier anymore. I can't take one more ad for that crypto exchange

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It is often fun choosing to read "clicks" as "dicks" due to how similar they look. Imagin' you getting 10,000's of dicks via LoL every month.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

10,000 dicks a month from lol is rookie numbers, honestly.
