Have you used one? I'm scared of carpal tunnel.The latency would probably be annoying as fuck
i use two between my legs
>>108735510Do you>have a confined desk space>work on spreadsheets all dayNo? Don't waste your money.
>>108735510>Have you used oneyes I use the wired expert for basic browsing and system navigation at my desktop>The latency would probably be annoyingJust dont use a wireless
>>108735528i'm talking wired
>>108735510The precision is more of the issue.
>>108735560i guess ill just buy one and return itprobably this one since its cheap
>>108735535You won't experience any perceptible latency if you're using a wired trackball
>>108735581(You) won't but i will
Unless you're swapping regularly between track ball and normal mouse, don't bother. I'm not sure why people think the ball can't give you RSIs, but it can and will.
>>108735510I have one and it doesn’t point at things nearly as well as a regular mousemake sure you get one from a store with an OK return policy
>>108735819i'm in EU so i can stick it up my ass cover it in shit and theyll have to accept the return anyway
why would there be more latency
>>108735942because the pollingn rate is low?
I've ordered elecom huge plus from Japan. Still in transit so I can't speak about using it
ploopy has gamer quality sensors and latency in their trackballs.>ploopythere's the gameball too.
>>108736061i'm not gonna finger cancer BPA plastic all dayalso>$100 cad + probably $20 shipping + tip yeah no
>>108735510>Have you used one?Yes. This one >>108735571. It's totally usable as a mouse. Only annoyance is that MMB is rather tricky. Otherwise it's a matter of taste. And don't get that particular one because switches wear out almost immediately and you have to change them.>I'm scared of carpal tunnel.Dumb meme. You get carpal from genes or breaking bones. RSI is the thing you're worried about.>The latency would probably be annoying as fuckThe fuck are you on about. It's literally an optical mouse flipped upside down and ball stands in as the table. Why would there be any kind of latency?
>>108736203>Why would there be any kind of latency?i have latency autism i need super fast gaymen mouse to not sperg outwhich one would you get? one from op is expensive as motherfucker
>>108736210From my very brief research months ago it appeared that all gaymen mice used practically the same sensor and everything was marketing fluff. The only standout was Ploopy. Its sensor is best and uses Pi pico, which is overkill for HID.But maybe someone else is more knowledgeable.
if im lifting my hand from my keyboard i may as well use a mouse. a trackpoint would be ideal but its hard to find a decent keyboard with one
>>108736256>very brief research2.5 seconds? single chatgpt prompt? you're fucking retarded gtfo
>>108736282No, I watched a youtube video, I don't touch that LLM garbage. Also proof?
>>108736293maybe if you did you wouldnt be this retarded you luddite retard and actual ape
>>108736303what about ...le gameballhttps://www.gamingtrackball.com/products/gameball-thumb-standard-edition
>>108736373i dont want thumb operated one they look uncomfortable as hellforgot it even existedpretty chheap for such a niche product
>>108736377The thumb is a rebadged chink ball, there are plenty of other chinkballs you can buy cheaper from companies like Nulea. They're all shit, while the regular gameball was designed and built in the first world so it's far more expensive but not dogshit.Aside from Gameball and L-trac, everything else is a third world product designed by third worlders. Literally in the case of Kensington, their latest trackball was so fundamentally flawed they had to pull it off the shelves a few days after launch.
>>108735535you are too stupid to use a trackball
>>108735510To avoid carpal tunnel, avoid using a high mouse speed/dpi. Move your arm, not your wrist, like professional artists do.
>>108736000Based fellow huge balls enjoyer. I just ordered the regular HUGE a few days ago, never had a trackball before. I don’t really have any issues using a mouse, but the idea of using a trackball seems interesting so i thought i’d give it a shot.
