Being on your laptop outside is a miserable experience

ftfy

As a lifelong desktop PC user, laptops just feel claustrophobic šŸ˜… Especially sucks without a mouse, fuck the trackpad.

Bro, people today prefer trackpad. Its fucking mindblowing. Ive met several IRL people that love trackpads and don’t own a mouse.

I almost guarantee I’m 10x faster at anything on a PC than them

I prefer a trackpad while I work, and the reason is simple: Much less movement to switch from trackpad to keyboard than from mouse to keyboard. And much easier to land on the key you want without looking.

And I very much doubt you’d be faster than me with a mouse!

Trackpads give me handcramps very fast. Also if Trackpads were faster, gamers would use them.

A gamer does not need to switch from the mouse to the keyboard repeatedly. Plus, a gamer cares about precision, which obviously a trackpad lacks.

ā€œFasterā€ standalone means nothing. Can you move the pointer faster with a mouse? Of course. But I don’t see most people flicking on their workstation.

In the context of this thread, ā€œfasterā€ refers to completing your tasks faster. And for that a trackpad beats a mouse if your job requires you to type a lot.

Makes sense!
