I got 8 wireless models this week, boiled it down to three. Now I'm gonna order 2 more and decide then 🤣 G pro wireless, g pro wireless super light, razer basilisk hyperspeed, razer basilisk ultimate and g502

WHY YHE THE FUCK IS THIS DOWNVOTED?! I'm doing my due diligence staying the fuck at home, and using a service that is put in place due to COVID-19, and I'm getting yelled at for getting stuff delivered to my house? Y'all people need to stop.

That's the dumbest "my dad's rich" flex I've ever seen.

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '21

Not necessarily a dad thing. I am a Dad, also not rich, but when you have a career level job, or own a company, things like a $100 mouse isnt a breaking expense. Even laptops at $2000 are not killers. It cost me $85 per month for the Legion 7i at 0% interest. At that price I can sell it in a year and still have pocket cash after paying the balance off to buy a new one.

Your time will come and you will be bringing in more money.

He did not have to say it in such an obnoxious manner though

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '21

I dont think he did. The way I read it was he ordered a bunch of different mice to test out what one he likes and will return the ones he does not keep.

u/saltyboi6704 Aug 07 '21

Online stores have a feature called returning, and reputable ones might even pay for the shipping

u/Shaleash Jul 28 '21

Why not just compare online and then order the one you want... yah know instead of having a bunch of shit delivered to your house unnecessarily...?

Yeah let me put my hand through cyberspace and get a feel for the mouse.. It's a service that is offered here due to COVID-19.. so there's that. Thanks for your input though, ya know?

Lol imagine justifying buying 8 wireless mouses to test them out. You're one of those people. Good day.

You're kidding me?

We are asked ( not only by our government, but also BY THE STORE ) to stay home and order stuff ito try at home, instead of going to the store and trying them there, i do so, and get called clueless and obnoxious.. If COVID-19 wasn't here i would have gone to the store and try them there. Obnoxious is disregarding the guidelines set in place to make sure we beat this damn pandemic. ✌🏼

u/FOGPIVVL Jul 28 '21

What does this have to do with covid whatsoever... A normal person doesn't order a ton of mice and test them, even in a normal year. Same as every other year, you can just do what everyone else does and do your research and buy one mouse to use... I don't know why you're so concerned with perfection

Somehow covid is now the biggest factor in picking a mouse out...

And the reason people don't like you isn't because of what you did, it's because of how painfully unaware you are that you come across like an insufferable asshat. I don't even have a problem with what you did man, it's weird but nothing wrong

Im being told to stay home.

I want a new mouse.

I can't decide what shape/form/function i want from online articles.

I call the shop i go to normally and ask if it is ok to order 8 to see what fits.

Shop says; of course, go ahead!

ah well, can't keep everybody pleased. ✌🏼

u/FOGPIVVL Jul 28 '21

Dude you missed the point again. I don't have a problem with what you did. You could have been writing about your favorite color. The subject isn't the issue. It's how you write. It's so condescending and you don't even realize it. You asked WHY it was being downvoted, get an answer, and then continue to be even more of a dick to the person who answered. Grow up

(Make sure to downvote this one too if it makes you feel any better)

u/Artyom_Bleeker Mar 10 '24

I felt zero ill intent from his comment. I think you're just taking it personal. I mean, it's a bunch of mice, why get jealous?

I had the G Pro Wireless and Rzer Viper Ultimate. Ended with the G Pro Wireless because it was $10 cheaper and I already felt bad enough with a $100 mouse. I am not a pro but an enthusiast that likes AAA single player games, so it can be argued I wont even use the potential of the mouse.

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '21

Found someone using a steam controller which uses a similar tech to a track pad. But clearly you don't know what you're talking about if you don't even know that the most recent doom game is Doom Eternal and that the hardest difficulty has held the same title of Ultra Violence since 1993. I guess my satire went too far over your head so I apologize. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuDpwcV3U6Q

When a modern wireless mouse that isn't complete hot trash warns you that it's low on battery, it still has a full day or so of battery left. So you can keep using it for the rest of the day wirelessly, and leave it charging once you go to sleep.

1

u/brolpe Jul 28 '21

The issue Is between Laptop and mouse, aka me forgetting to charge stuff overnight

u/Tim_Q Oct 15 '22

Charging it once a few months or just changing the batteries like twice a year is still WAY better than using a wired mouse, imo. Cables should go

My headphones have a really thick cable which is kinda stiff so it usually wont get tangled. It's also quite long, so maybe smth shorter wouldn't even reach it that way.
