      The mouse jiggler would be an absolute godsend for jobs like mine where the IT department doesn't count actual computer activity as *use*, so if I trigger a large batch script and let it run -- odds are good I will come back and find my VDI session has timed out and been recycled even though the script still had several hours to go. I usually have to put the mouse on my record turntable and clip the cord in place to keep it from entering sleep mode when I can't be bothered to sit here and interact with the stupid thing every fifteen minutes.

    Okay, to be fair, mouse jigglers have one purpose that can be really handy.
    If you get a laptop from the government, or from a massive corporation, they typically have very short lock periods (mine is about a minute.) What that means is you can't even go to the bathroom without the laptop locking, requiring logging back in (generally with a smartcard) and re-opening your VPN connections. A jiggler allows you to go to the bathroom, or make a cup of coffee without having to relogin to everything.
    Obviously you don't use them in an unsecured environment, but if it's sitting on your desk at home... yeah, they are a huge time saver.

      It's likely a "Peltier" cooler. Peltier devices use materials where when a voltage is applied, one side gets really hot and the other gets really cold. There used to be CPU Peltier coolers like 15 years ago, I think they are out of fashion because they generate a lot more heat than they take away. So the CPU does get really cold, but the inside of the case gets very hot.

    Regarding the Half Keyboard. It got all the keys you 99% of the time would you use in videogame with said hand. With some models certain companies sells having Plenty of extra keys for macros placed around it. Hell i think Razer sells one with a joystick.

      The razer one isn't a joystick, it's more like a d-pad disguised as a joystick.

    If you had the other half of that keyboard, you could set up a wicked space sim setup, with that half right behind the throttle and the other half right behind the joystick. :) (and yes, I understand it's designed to be used with a mouse for the right hand and there's not actually an "other half")

    The half keyboard is good for VR. When I was playing Elite Dangerous in VR, keeping control of where you are on a regular keyboard can be a little bit of a mess, so I got a Razor Tartarus Chroma , a partial keyboard with some mouse control on it. Bound all my auxiliary controls to that and never needed to bother hunting over my keyboard blind. :)

  • @megaman2000ish
    @megaman2000ish 11 місяців тому +1

    I will say the half keyboard does actually have a use case. Some people don't have a lot of desk space so the half keyboard allows them to have more mouse travel space while gaming. It is in no way a replacement for a full keyboard but it is an instead option. Artists also use similar keyboards for macro keys as there desk tends to be taken up by their drawing tablet.

    I use to have a half keyboard and it was one of the most comfortable gaming keyboards I've ever used. Of course, not having a full keyboard is a problem, I just had a cheep 60% as well for everyday typing. But the way the spacebar was helped, and the macros were good too.

    To make a point in favor of the half keyboard.
    I use one myself, and every day. I have a regular keyboard ALSO plugged in. It's just when I gane I like my arms to be more spread put and I hate having to pick up my heavy mechanical keyboard and move it over to the side and at an angle so I can relax and use one hand on keys one on mouse.
    With the half keyboard it's so convenient, and 90% of games I play, mainly competitive fps games, never have a need for a button I can't hit with one hand. And if I need to chat, my other full size is right there.
    But again, I also have a huge desk and use a 42 inch monitor so, your milage may vary.

    If you have enough desk space, the half keyboard combines well with your "normal" keyboard, allowing you to spread your arms in a pretty comfortable position. Needs some time for the brain to get used to what's effectively an extremely wide keyboard of sorts, but it can be VERY comfortable, especially for longer gaming sessions or laborious manual data entry (ask me how I know).

  • @mr.grotto
    @mr.grotto 11 місяців тому

    That half keyboard can be mapped entirely separately as different keys and you can relabel them. The beauty is less in what it shows and more in what niche editors can make it into. Several people like nutty have done tutorials on the "budget" streamdeck.

  • @jtnachos16
    @jtnachos16 11 місяців тому

    That mouse kinda looks like someone looked at a swiftpoint tracer and went 'oh, we can do that!' and it turned out that no, they could not do that.
    I have a swiftpoint Z (which is the premium version of the tracer) that is currently in a drawer because, unfortunately, after years of use it started to wear (got very rough on the bottom skates and on the rubber sections of the grip), and it is surprisingly comfy and natural, despite the odd shape and button locations. It's basically the 'fully loaded luxury car' of gaming mice, full of features that you have to actively go out of your way to remember the existence of, but if you work them into your mind, they actually work pretty well. I really hope they start making them again. The knuckle buttons on the swiftpoint mouse are actually fairly accessible and easy to use, while having enough resistance that you aren't going to accidentally trip them. They can also be pulled up instead of pushed down for alternate inputs.
    The swiftpoint Z actually TRULY shines in creative pursuits. Can have nearly every shortcut right there on the mouse, and rarely have to deal with modifier key inputs on the keyboard. In games I found myself using a lot of the buttons on a pretty rare basis initially, but after getting used to binding certain things to the mouse and having dedicated buttons for them, it was awkward to switch away back to a more 'normal' mouse. In my case that was a G502, then a G305.
