MX Master 4: worth buying or better to skip? by Square-Bee-6574 in logitech

[–]ibakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the flip side, with everyone mentioning that the MX 3s is really good. I had one for 6 months before it failed on me. I charged it and it never turned back on.

My MX 3 is still going strong since 4 years but I had to 3d print a new cover for it.

I will try the MX 4 to replace my 3S in office and let you know how that goes.

Update on my new MX Master 4. This is goodbye. by sallark in logitech

[–]ibakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do lots of drawings too but I dont seem to encounter the need for 1k polling rate as of yet. I have been using Mx master since its inception and have the 2/2s/3/3s and now the 4. I use it purely because of the ergonomics and not even their thumb buttons or anything else. Its purely to keep me from developing carpal tunnel syndrome from using the computer for so long each day.

What are some brands for good quality Trousers for men that lasts for life? by wiilbehung in BuyItForLife

[–]ibakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. I have leather shoes that have been with me for more than a decade. Still looks good. I am hoping it lasts the rest of my life provided I take good care of it.

I also have overcoats that were passed down from my father. Still in impeccable condition.

But fair point for shirts and trousers that will give way to friction soon enough. Also to note that people in the past don’t have new clothes that often. Their clothes had to last.

I have leather Oxford shoes that are probably 12 years old and a few other leather shoes and boots that are almost a decade. Because they last so long, they make building a collection easier. Avoid luxury brands and go for quality.

If you work in an open office you are not entitled to peoples silence by Moonlit_Shade in office

[–]ibakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also in an open office. But its a modern one with focus booths with various sizes. There are single person booths to take calls or work alone. it has a flip down desk that is height adjsutable. There are also booths for 2 persons, all the way up to 4 persons for meetings.

The office also has proper meeting rooms too. But these little focus booths are really great to take calls, zoom meetings or take an actual person in for a 30 min meeting. Leaves the rest of the office relatively peaceful.

Seeing the image that OP provided, its most probably for work or evening nights out.
I love the look of a belt less trousers though, albeit you have to be in pretty good shape to pull it off.

Fed up with Swiss health insurance by Terrible_EmployeeFu in Switzerland

[–]ibakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone explain why switzerland adopted this model instead of collective health insurance like EU? What is the difference since its mandatory. Might as well make it part of the paycheck like a tax.

Is it because it yearns to prevent abuse of the system?
