Where's the difference?Don't you mean a headache from being perplexed.
Could be. I gues the cat thinks it is a very shallow box...

Try it!
I'm still using the DS4 controller (and sofa) from my console days, I think I've found a way to do just about everything I want with 2-button combinations and long holds. Had to make some compromises of course - I mapped one button to cycle through grenade types, rather than have different buttons for different types, for example.
I use a mini wireless keyboard for things like typing in the galaxy map though - I wearied of navigating around the letters on the virtual keyboard.
I did. More than once. Doable in calm situations like taking pictures, but in a fight or other situations that require all hands on deck? Just a call for desaster.
Yeah, that's how I did it, too... But it is a bit unfortunate that I have to use a button combo to switch from yaw to lateral movement of the ship. I would prefer to have two extra buttons to map for the lateral movement, so that I would be able to use it whenever the need arises without having to sacrifice yaw for it.
And for the on-foot fighting steering, that's something I'm not entirely done with.
I use my standard keyboard for typing and a few non-essential stuff like screenshots.

So, salt and pepper, then
Don’t forget the Chilis…
For what it's worth, I take pretty badass pictures with the controller!
And I don't use the alternate flight controls anymore
We can only show you the door CMDR Timber McWolf. And perhaps offer encouragement. Well, did you try drawing on a knob and knock three times?
The advantage of a HOTAS is that it can be placed/stuck/bolted to the desk or flight chair freeing the hands from holding the controls in place so it is much more feasible to use the keyboard mouse and all the other additional input devices.

It's not about putting the controller down to reach for the keyboard as such. It's about having to press a key while needing both hands on the controller.
My god man, talk about vainy.Any free limbs?

Second thought was you misspelled vanity.My god man, talk about vainy.
In the game I am still conducting my experiment into SLF pilot performance, actually I suppose I am still getting the ingredients ready for the experiment as I still haven’t raised the new one to Elite.
The good news is they reached Dangerous last session so the bulk of the ranks have been achieved.
The bad news is that they are only about a quarter of the way through the ranking.
I will need to move out of this Haz RES soon as I am nearly out of fighters and am starting to get storage full messages almost every time a ship I target has data to scan, plus the main fuel tank is running low now this would normally not be an issue as the system is inhabited the star is scoopable and my carrier is here but I have one of the new drives fitted so one miss timed boost and I might get very embarrassed.

He's a blood drawers dream, I'm jealous.
Well, a lack of dexterity combined with sketchy nerves down south hamper the feasibility of this significantly.
And as my name is not Zaphod...
Yeah, having to call the Fuel Rats 10 Mm away from the carrier sounds quite embarrassing...
It's good to flex the hand and take it off the controller anyway and punching a key can be a handy reminder.
But those special deluxe little button boards could be great if ur sitting back in an armchair or something, actually.
You can do it duders wherever you find good old-fashioned pressing buttons like perhaps an old adding machine
But don't press your luck!
