The receiver being USBA is a definitely a miss on Logitech’s part. BT is spotty on my macs with these mice.

I think you’re a holdout for the pro version. This one is only 24” anyway.

I’m going to go ahead and say if you haven’t gotten onboard with USB C by now you’re behind. It’s been half a decade since the USB A port went away on Mac. I know everyone has thei…

I am not sure why you think this discussion about homosexuals in general and the possibility that they would attracted to trans men impacts you personally. The idea doesn’t hurt yo…

These ideas don’t point towards any animosity towards homosexuals, just a theory about how they might be attracted to trans people. Not really comparable to conversion therapy — no…
