I have less issues with it after switching to Linux and using solar than I had on windows with the official app.
My PC is 6 years old and was high end back than, so its still mostly up to date, but a lot of the time the Logitech app simply refused to work. I had to manually downgrade it multiple times and it even caused two BSODs for me. My headset had issues with its connection and the soundfilter just sounded awful.
Nah that's just a lie. There was no major increase in lifespan, sure, but that's mostly due to the fact that we are pretty close to the normal biological limit after we stopped early child deaths for the most part.
But in terms of living standards, a lot changed. In the time from 1980 to 2000 the internet emerged, information and entertainment slowly became available on demand for most people. Electronic devices became affordable even for "lower class" families. Smartphones slowly became a normal to own. Slowly increasing globalization gave pretty much everyone the chance to see a bigger part of the world than ever before. At the same time a lot of the most problematic illnesses got eradicated. Polio is gone and there are vaccines for stuff like hepatitis. Insulin slowly became available for everyone (apart from the corporate hellhole that's the USA). With the increase in global trade you could by fruits that your grandparents barely knew about.
That's not to say that everything was good. If you were part of a surpressed group back then, your life definetly wasn't easy, but even then there was slow progress towards acceptance. While climate change was already an ever present topic, most prognoses were still optimistic until the early 2000s. The biggest climate issue was the ozone hole that got mostly fixed by now. Even if you lived in the 3rd world and still suffered a lot more than others, you could still slowly see amenities that europe took as granted come into your country.
You kinda got the wrong point of the comment. This wasn't about the meaning of life or coming to terms with the fact that your life will not matter in the grand scale of things.
Its about having no hope that things will ever get better for you. Most generations over the last few hundred years either saw a great increase in living standards for everyone or had technological breakthroughs during their live-time that promised a better life for them.
Even if the current situation was bad for them the future didn't look completely black. There was always that small voice in the back that said "Maybe in the future it will be better".
Nowadays? I dread every technological breakthrough and every election cause it brings us one step closer from endstage capitalism back to feudalism ruled by a few cleptomanic psychopaths. The general populace is purposefully kept as close to their breacking point as possible to stop them from rising up and seemingly every single nation is drifting towards fascism while trying their absolut hardest to implement a full scale surveillance system.
The only reasonable way to cope with that is being completely apathetic to your surroundings, which makes it even harder to find enough joy in life to get trough the daily boring grind for survival.
Since when are mouse inputs tied to individual frames?
Neither to action you perform nor the reaction from the Programm should be delayed, only the visual feedback you get.
Sure some older Programms don't use internal ticks bit instead use the framerate for that, which leads to a lot of issues with higher framerates as well, but they are few and far between.
