Comment Re:Modula-3 FTW! (Score 2) 492

I'm a C beginner and I don't think curly brackets (not braces) are anything BUT readable.
Pascal is easy for me, parsing HTML and XML are no problem, parentheses are fine, but when I try making heads and tails of curly brackets I fall flat on my face.

It's under warranty and doesn't bother me as much. Not to mention I absolutely suck at small hardware tinkering.
My absolute favorite would be a scroll wheel barely poking above a middle button into which it would be embedded, allowing for button-type middle click as well as scrolling just by moving a finger up by a fraction of an inch.

Not trying to flamebait, but this looks more like a "me, oldtimer, can't adapt" thing.
Indeed, some mice have a harder to press mid-button/scroll wheel, but there are some which are easier to press. I have a G700S and the middle click requires greater finger pressure than I'd like, however I bought it because it features both step-by step scrolling and continuous, which is the feature I was looking for. At any rate, I remapped middle click to a side button too and retrained my muscle memory.
