@GeorgeMayer That being said, Macbook trackpads are pretty great too. Played through a number of FPSes on one of those as well.

@GeorgeMayer Favorite aspect was the laptop I had in college only had a trackpoint, no trackpad. Stopped a lot of pranksters from messing with my stuff when I left my laptop half-unattended.

@Dr_death417 @MichaelVLeVine @pauldauenhauer @gabriel_eades @hoperhenderson @DaphSci The pushback should to be against the insane policy, not against anyone's acknowledgement of the policy. We can both state that "this is how it is" AND admit that it is absolutely insanity that it is this way.

@hoperhenderson @MichaelVLeVine @pauldauenhauer @Dr_death417 @gabriel_eades @DaphSci I'm actually really confused about this sentiment in the whole thread. I'm disappointed there's no active condemnation of the state of things, but none of this thread reads to me as him actually defending anything, just stating things as the way they work within the system.

@ZachWeiner It's pronounced zhfeg, actually: the P in JPEG stands for Photographer's so it's pronounced as an F, and the G stands for Group so it's a hard g.
