Well, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve read in a while. I have a Trackman from 2004 that’s still plugging along, no subscription software updates required. If your stuff isn’t shit, it lasts forever anyways.
I have a mouse that plugs into a COM port as my 286 doesn’t have USB or PS/2. I’m not entirely sure how old it is, but I’d be surprised if it post dates 1990
Anyway, good luck making a forever mouse when the main cause for replacing mouses is their connector being out dated
I remember back when Logitech was a brand that was known for quality.
My current led mouse has been going for 10 years with no signs of slowing down, so take that sub and stuff it
You know what, I’d be all behind a subscription mouse so long as it includes periodic hardware upgrades and unlimited warranty replacements no questions asked so long as the subscription is paid.
Admittedly, I’d be trying to figure out the most interesting ways to actively destroy mice to make them rue the day they thought a mouse subscription was a good idea, but that’s beside the point. Why no, I can’t return the damaged mouse, it’s at the bottom of a hole in the woods no human has been down since the civil war. Just like it was none of your business how I found out that the mouse isn’t resistant to hydrofluoric acid.
Oh god oh no I used my last click now I can’t select a plan
Yes you can! Only $0.10 per additional click!
And how will I click that? Oh, it’s automatic! For our convenience!
“remind me later” works only if you double click it.
It’s all fun and games, until it becomes real and people buy it, then all competitors align and it’s the new norm.
your red pixel clicking cartridge has run out. you wont be able to click on any other pixels until you refill your red pixel clicking cartridge.
Third party clicking cartridge detected. Please purchase a supported cartridge from Logitech, or our partnered retailers.
Business idea: The mouse manufacturers play the middle man in the click economy. Users can add an extra “click safety” package for $3,99/month, which prevents them from clicking on ads/misleading content. “Good” and “ethical” advertisers can get in touch with the “business communication” office of the mouse manufacturers to buy exception deals, because “their ads are okay”
Living in 2024, I’m not even sure if this is a joke or not. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a subscription for damn oxygen soon. Oh, wait, that’s taxes!
It’s only partially a joke. I can’t remember who but some company was bragging about their subscription based mouse they had in the works.
This reads like an onion article. Who’s constantly buying new mice? And they’re trying to target consumers who “don’t have both a mouse and keyboard” by trying to sell them a $200 mouse…
I’ve been using the same razer chroma I bought 15 years ago and it’s still perfectly fine.
Unless you pay a carbon tax or pay taxes that pay for CCS, taxes aren’t supplying air.
I can navigate with keyboard shortcuts.
I’m sorry, you are out of keyboard clicks.
I’ll just use my graphics tablet.
I’m sorry, you’re out of graphics.
Connect with rdp with my laptop with a touchscreen
You’re out of RDPs
I can cry.
Subscribe to tears monthly for more tears you’ve reached your tears limit for this month.
I’ve managed to pay under $20 for all I can click mice. They last more than a year typically. Even with tariffs, I’m getting a chinese mouse, and y’all can f the f off.
I see you’re getting a subpar keyboard rate
That honestly sounds like a bad deal. Before recently replacing it, I had a $35 dollar mouse that lasted through 12 years of heavy gaming. Either you are inhumanly rough on your mice, or you might want to spend a little bit more for something quality.
Nah, I already got the 24,99 family plan that includes 500 premium clicks every month. I just hope they don’t follow through with their crackdown on account sharing.
What do those premium clicks do?
When you click a button it’s actually two events, a button down and a button up. That is how you are able to grab something and move it, by clicking and holding and then later releasing.
Premium clicks include both the button down and button up events. Non-premium clicks are button down only.
Remember to unclick your buttons if you’re not paying for premium clicks. You wouldn’t want to continously keep reordering toilet paper from Amazon, would you?
This is why you do what I do and use a trackball.
I’ve had mine since 2004. I’ve replaced the cord 3 times, and designed a 3D printed replacement scroll wheel for it. It’s still going strong.
That’s some dedication. Respect
Thanks. The T-BB18 is definitely bigger than the modern m575. And even though I don’t have huge hands, it is still more comfortable to me. I made an ergonomic stand for it, too. Totally copied the concept from one somebody did for the m570, but it had to be bigger and have completely different mounting.
Don’t give them ideas
Lol Logitech has already tried.
Wat
Jesus Christ
Is scrolling extra?
We need to reverse engineer this software so it can be used.

If the Corsair harpoon was a subscription service. I’d pay for it.
