Mad respect to your wife for using that type of mouse.

Love that mouse. I used to be a teller at a bank and would carry this with me to every station I’d be at. Saved my wrist from so much unnecessary movement.

Love my marble mouse.

By the picture it looks like a Logitech MX Ergo mouse.
We left-handers hate it.

She needs to clean her balls

Mmmm…. I can almost taste the stiction on that rollerball
I love my ball mouse, I really do. But I hate how often it needs to be cleaned.

I never got this style mouse but I do miss the little joystick button laptops used to have

Did you boil an egg, too? Can’t just throw the same yolk in.

Trackballs are standard in ship equipment.
They will work when fitted in place and won’t fall off when the sea is rough.

So glad I just use my mouse for navigation not gaming I prefer to kick back with a controller so my mouse rarely if ever at all looks like that

I have this mouse. I want to make it clear that I clean mine once a week because the oil buildup begins to interfere with the sensor ball. This looks like months and months of buildup, I’m not sure how it would even be usable.

She use the laser for her legs?

So I’m curious how tf this was working at all. I get a tiny bit of dust in mine and the ball is not smooth–annoys tf outta me.

MX Ergo is an amazing mouse

Your quotes makes no sense around ‘working’. It would have been ok if you included ‘stopped’.

Another trackball user! I’m not alone after all.

It’s a trackball, I clean mine almost daily. That’s why there’s a giant hole in the bottom to pop the ball out. Don’t use a trackball if you don’t clean it regularly

years ago my razer death adder kept doing this weird thing where after I flicked my mouse the cursor would bounce left or right like half an inch(ruined my cs gameplay)
so i cleaned it out and it was still happening. just before going to buy a new mouse I decided to tear the entire thing apart and see if something is visibly broken
I had a single flake of glitter under the lens of the mouse sensor– worked flawlessly for years after that; then the left mouse button switch failed so I dug out a broken logitech mouse and transplanted the switch into the death adder

Is she allowed to wash her hands, or is that frowned upon?

Why is she still using this type of mouse, though?

Haven’t needed to clean my mouse since I switched to optical oh about 20 years ago. I use em a lot and I did get tired of opening up the mouse, popping the balls out, and scrubbing the gut clean.

I see the problem. It’s a trackball.
Eww. Where has you’re wife’s thumbs been?
Never mind. Don’t answer that.
