    why is it mturk.com instead of worker.mturk.com?

    Middle mouse button still broken:biblethump:...


    Some of my AHK scripts use middle mouse click and I thought it just wasn't picking them up. Took me a couple days to realise the button is broken because I only ever use it for those scripts. Scrolling still works fine. This <$10 mouse lasted about a year and a half.

    Pretty common for those of us who use laptops, especially those of us who literally use them on our laps and therefore don't really have a good surface to mouse on.

    That's not the $16 follow up. That's for a Scalable hit you signed up for probably on Wednesday or Thursday.

    The middle button does open a new tab in the background but my middle button is my scroll wheel so I never actually use it to click with.

    I have a 15" screen, so about a 17.5 inch wide laptop and a 21 inch desk to set it on.....not much room on either side for a mouse

    Didn't some of the old thinkpads have a middle mouse button?

    It prob have enough room for a trackball and those have middle mouse buttons...

    it would be a learning curve to use one though lol

    Probably. They also had a lot better semi-mechanical keys than the mushy chiclet garbage that's standard in even premium laptops these days. Use a laptop for even half a year and you basically have to pound each key with a hammer to get it to respond.
