SoylentNews is people

from the Silence-is-Golden,-but-this-Mouse-isn't dept.

Since many people are claiming that small noises are a pain, Logitech set out to design mices which are about 10dB less clicky than the usual ones.
At around 25dB, the M220 Silent/M330 Silent Plus are probably near the noise floor of most office spaces, and surprisingly not a premium product (under US$30).

That doesn't sound like a bad thing for people with small places and light-sleeping partners either. Are Soylentils really bothered by Joe-the-spreadsheet-clicker, or do you believe in counter-offensive?

    Noise cancelling headphones?

    I wear those headphones they have at the rifle range, but still, my chatty cow-orkers with nothing to do but socialize keep the chaos level high enough that it is impossible to concentrate on my work.

    Mouse clicks? I can't even hear them under the din.

    I'd be happy with a noise canceling sock in the mouth. It would make a perfect gift for about 50 people I know.
