Clean your mouse

[Matt_H]

I mean, *really* clean it. Rinse the ball, scrape all the crud off the internal rollers. Hit it with some compressed air.

Did this for one of my systems earlier this week. For something so simple, it makes using the computer so much more pleasant. It's like a brand new machine!

No more scrubbing balls!

Thank God this isn’t Covid related.

not sure if 'mouse', 'ball', 'crud' are some kind of metaphor.

I remember opening my mouse the first time, not sure if the black ring around rollers was a gasket or rubber band of some kind. Took the risk and scraped it off, thinking 50:50 chance I ruined my mouse or was it really accumulated dirt lol.
