[22:28:07] * Bytram returns, somewhat humbled
[22:29:28] <RandomFactor> WB Bytram
[22:29:29] <Bytram> had stayed at a relative's for a few days while on this medical stuff was going on. Loaded up my car and get everything unloaded back at my apt and it looks like I left my mouse behind.
[22:29:59] <Bytram> let's just say that as kbd-centric as I am, today's UI is very much ouse-centric
[22:30:13] <Bytram> s/ ou/ mou/
[22:30:15] <exec> <Bytram> let's just say that as kbd-centric as I am, today's UI is very much mouse-centric
[22:30:31] * Bytram decides to take another look
[22:31:33] <Bytram> yep, no joy.
[22:31:48] <Bytram> RandomFactor: thank you very much!
[22:32:01] <Bytram> it's good to be back.
[22:32:56] <Bytram> I have an old mouse that I hooked up and everything works *except* the left-click button.
[22:33:34] <Bytram> thankfully, I use a laptop, so I can point with mouse and click on lappy's touchpad.
[22:37:42] <Bytram> mouse was "twitchy", so had to slow it down in control panel
[22:42:14] <Bytram> OTOH, the Editor interface for the site is quite mouse-centric, so I have a chance to practice my two-hand mouse skills, it seems.
[23:02:44] <chromas> Remap the buttons
[23:02:59] <chromas> At the very least, there should be a right-handed mode that swaps L and R button mappings
[23:03:28] <Bytram> I thought about that, but right-hand button is a bit wonky, too.
[23:03:41] <Bytram> chromas: thanks for the thought!
[23:03:50] <Bytram> chromas++

[23:09:46] <chromas> How do you do all that while torrenting the latest linux isos?
[23:10:23] <Bytram> chromas: Hey! Thanks a bunch for pushing out a story, too. I'd noticed you'd posted much more lately... THANK YOU!
