So I won't take too long on the intro for this one. This time, let's
focus on your mouse. You know, that wiggly lil' plastic gadget beneath
your hand. Let's describe it!

I have an aversion to wireless as you have to have batteries which
increase the weight, and the inconvenience of the mouse working
intermittently when they get low until you replace them.  Or having a
rechargeable mouse where it doesn't work until it's charged a bit
possibly, and having the recharging port wear out.  It's been a long
time since I used a wireless mouse.

 
Yeah, it is annoying. However, on the go it is nice to not deal with a
cable. For home/workstation setups, it is objectively worse IMO.

Agreed, currently using a wired on my workstation. On the laptop I just
use the trackpad, but then the only game I play on a laptop is Dwarf
Fortress, and then I go KB only. There are those newer cordless mouses*

Original or Steam?

that charge via NFC or something like it via a pad, so I MIGHT look into
that next time I need a new one.

Seems neat, but probably obscenely expensive.

*I understand the correct pluralisation of mouse for computers is
'mouses' rather than mice, as that only applies to the animal. Not sure
anyone cares about that though :D

Eh, I just say mice. It's easier.
