  • Nah, ingrown toenails just happen. Might be a genetic thing or something. As a kid I had to get like five surgeries for it on my right big toe and then when it wouldn’t stop happening they eventually killed the root at that side of the toenail with some kind of acid to prevent it from happening again. I still occasionally get ingrown nails on the big toe of the other foot that didn’t need the surgery.


  • But otherwise I learned the hard way many years ago to just buy Logitech after purchasing a stupid expensive gaming mouse from a brand I’ve forgotten whose left click died in less than a year.

    Seems to be a problem in general. I’ve been using Elecom trackballs for years, first one I bought still works. Ones I’ve bought in the last year all started wigging out on left click within a couple months. I took one apart recently to swap the mouse switch with a quick solder job and it’s good as new. Seems like the newer ones are using really cheap Chinese Omron switches that die quickly. IIRC the older one uses a Japanese Omron switch. The new one I soldered in is a Kailh GM2.0.
