Compare the efficiency of a human body vs an electric motor. I'll wait.
>>
>>108496884
Same way you can't power your body through an electric outlet. The body transforms chemical energy (as in organic (carbon based) compounds) into make ATP, which is then used to power everything. Action potentials are the closest things to actual electricity that we produce, however it's so weak and the body has 0 way to store it. It's possible though, look into the biology of electric eels. Your excess calories can still charge your phone through kinetic energy, i.e get some exercise, but it's not that efficient

If you just want a work mouse you can carry around, the thumb style wireless ones are the best. They are small and you can use them anywhere. They are a thousand times better than being a hunched over trackpad cuck.
If you want a gaming mouse then just buy a gaming mouse. I have seen pros of many games play with the most cursed setups and inputs ever yet I've never seen any that use a trackball mouse. I doubt they are the ideal tool for games.

Thumbstyle fuckos can eat a bullet
>>108501838
You can't, nor will you ever, reach the speed AND precision you can with the tips of your fingers.
EVER. That's not even up for debate. Plain simple fact.
Doesn't matter if it is gaming, 3D modelling or general use. You will always be slower using shitty thumb-balls.
Not a serious input device. On the same level as phone keyboards.

Recently purchased a new one due to my m570 spam clicking on click-and-hold gestures despite fresh batteries.

This is probably my third or forth trackball purchase in a decade, first time I've found a wired clone and at about half the price. the reign of the m570 is ended.

Middle click + right click a couple seconds to turn off LEDs.

The only really good local LLM setup I've heard of is dual 3090. No bs nvidia bridge, just them talking over PCIe.
It's not like they compare to Claude, not even close. But that is the real usable bare minimum. The kind you would love to have around when the world ends but you somehow have electricity and are not dead yet.
Rent is cheaper ofc.

From the kernel you use to the media codecs, most things involve proprietary software. In practice, using 100% FOSS software is almost impossible. Only kissless virgins like (You) can tolerate it.

True, but this board and thread aren't really used by casual users. And because a lot of semi-competent tech nerds are hotheaded smartasses who don't interact with real human beings, they'll tell you you're wrong and the only operating system worth using is their favorite distro.
