one thing I don't get is why the proper mouse buttons are above the mousepad

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're for the clit mouse. The bottom of the touchpad still has a physical click option

Some call it trackpoint. It's the red button in the middle of your keyboard

does anyone actually use that though? it's super impractical

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah there's some amount of people who like it, including me. Wouldn't use it over a proper mouse, but surely over a trackpad

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Not impractical, you just don’t have enough experience with them yet :)

This is just the better way, just as its better to swap Fn and Ctrl

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

the Fn shouldn't be there at all, just add more buttons

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Often possible but no.

Thinkpads now having sticky Fn keys by default is hillarious though, people just dont use Fn keys (and I have to admit all I use is F5 and F11)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

there are some games (Minecraft) that use the F buttons too so I find it annoying having to swap all the time
