The most irritating thing is it works perfectly for weeks, months on end without a glitch or a missed apostrophe, then spontaneously and very subtly degrades. I replace the batteries to no avail. At one point, I thought it was related to LAN traffic but no. It has a mind of its own and drives me fucking mad.

rpcutts (rpcutts@brainvom.it)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 14:43:30 UTC rpcutts @andyc I've never gone wireless. There always seem to be reviews, no matter the model, saying that it drops key presses. Even if there's a chance of it. I'll stick to wires.

Johnny Null (johnnynull@not.unixporn.pro)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 14:46:07 UTC Johnny Null @rpcutts @andyc Never experienced dropped keypresses. That being said, I also don't game, so my use may not be as extreme as some. -
rpcutts (rpcutts@brainvom.it)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 14:51:05 UTC rpcutts @johnnynull @andyc yeah, likelihood is I'm being too sensitive about it, because I don't game, nor do I type quickly. But a fault like Andy has got, that would annoy me no end.

Johnny Null (johnnynull@not.unixporn.pro)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 14:52:50 UTC Johnny Null @rpcutts @andyc Agreed. And it is all Andy's fault. -
Andy C (andyc@mastodon.sdf.org)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 14:55:00 UTC Andy C @rpcutts @johnnynull That is the knub (knob) of the problem. I type FAST.

Johnny Null (johnnynull@not.unixporn.pro)'s status on Tuesday, 20-Nov-2018 15:01:20 UTC Johnny Null @andyc @rpcutts I type 90 words a minute. Of course half of those keypresses are backspaces... -
