Or use synergy. Whatever works best :)

Yep! If you only have space for one monitor, like me, kb/m is a good call.

I'm using an MX Anywhere 2 on a daily basis for the past 8 months. Price is on the high side but it's a really great mouse to work with. I really dig the profile management and the bluetooth connectivity. If I had to buy an another one, I would do so in a heartbeat.

Current Build: SD-DESK-07

I watched both LTT video on the MX Master 2S and Symless Synergy. I had got myself both the MX Master 2S and the K375S to be used in my office and initially thought the Logitech Flow function was really cool. allows me to switch between my windows laptop and my macbook pro seamless for both the mouse and keyboard function. However after slight usage I'm really hating it because of how buggy it performs.

 

Firstly the delay when switching between screen is killing me. Secondly there were times it just won't switch over to the other screen and I end up just keep smashing the cursor to the edge of the screen until it finally switches over. Overall the experience wasn't as great as I hope to be. Until I remembered about the Synergy app which I had bought using LTT discount code - Thanks guys!

 

The Synergy app is by far outperforms the Logitech Flow in many ways. What I'm most impressed is how I can easily switch screens without any delay, the cursor just continue moving to the other screen with no delay.

The only downside is that my K375s is a mac support keyboard which includes the Command, Alt, keys and works really well when I'm using the logitech flow function however since I'm sticking with Synergy due to performance, I have to use the keyboard as though I'm using a windows keyboard on my mac. I tried to use the "Modifier Keys" to swap out the command and option key but it did not seem to do anything.

 

any ideas?

 

EDIT: Oh heck, I did not actually think Synergy also have an option to map keys within the control panel. I've been doing it within the Mac OS System Preference and that is the reason it did not produce the results I wanted. All is good now!

I just want them to release their trackball with this kind of connector.  I get that they think the majority of their trackball customers prefer wireless, but how hard would it be to add this connector in so it could be run wired or wireless?

Also, the plural of BEEF is BEEVES

Technically, it is a plural for beef, but only in regards to the animal.

Quote

noun, plural beeves [beevz] (Show IPA), for 2;

 

2.  an adult cow, steer, or bull raised for its meat.

The plural for beef (regarding the meat product we consume) is just beef.

Nah, it also refers to the meat itself:

Last I checked, this was a tech related forum, not a "How to speak English" forum.

Sorry, but reviving an old thread for discussing something out of topic, is a no no.

When I posted, I didn't realize that it was an old thread (I just saw the latest post), but it was not completely off topic.  As for the comments between @Notional and myself, those were merely in jest.

[Two] months is enough to be considered an "old thread"?

Thanks in advance! :D

The MX twins have options for smooth scrolling or a ratchet like scrolling.

 

With Smooth scrolling, you can easily spin the scroll wheel and it'll travel for a good while.

With the ratchety scrolling, the scroll whell won't scroll as much if you were to quickly spin it.

 

Control vs speed.

And look what I've found in the dirt.

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!
