A mouse. How quaint. I quit using a mouse over 20 years ago. You
oldsters are so cute with your mice, desktop computers, kill files,
Windows, etc, etc, etc. You guys should put in your wills that you wish
to be buried with your beloved relics. Oh yeah.

Usenet is a relic of the desktop-only era, so it's only fitting.  A
tablet has it's place, but it's exceedingly difficult to post to Usenet,
particularly selecting text and editing posts, with only a touch screen.

Fugget about it!

The alternative is to use a device without a mouse, never snip
anything, annoy the world with entire pages of irrelevant quoted text
and call yourself a man of the future.
