Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

I was using a Kensington Profit vertical wireless trackball (the one with the red ball) and that's what broke. I'm replacing it with a Logitech MX Ergo, which is what I had before trying the Kensington. Between the two, the logitech feels much smoother and is charged via cable, so there are no extra batteries to keep purchasing.

I have a wired kensington expert as well and definitely prefer the ball under the thumb instead of in the middle. I tried playing solitaire with the expert yesterday and it just wasn't a natural fit for the repetitive movements or drag and drop.

I much, much prefer either type of trackball to any kind of mouse, since they sit in one spot and are much easier to manage when you're sitting on a carpeted floor - you don't need a clear amount of flat space to use one.
