Use a mouse.
Or a stylus.

I did have a 300 and it served me well as my work took me to many parts of the world but I eventually upgraded to the 800. That was the death of the 300. I inserted a PCMCIA SCSI card and connected to the external CD drive of the 800 package. Bad things happened and the 300 never worked again. Still have the box of bits in the loft.

Oh... yuck. That sucks.

Yep. I don't understand how that paradigm got past beta testing.
GW-Insteks have a separate button for menu selection.

The detentless multifunction knob on Rigol 1000z series has the same annoying habit of frequently turning when depressed.

I’m pretty sure that a ferry’s “headlights off” rule is for when your car’s engine is turned off. They like it when your car is able to start when it’s time to debark. (for the more youthful here, older cars didn’t shut off the headlights when you turned off the ignition. I never learned why they were designed that way)

It was so, if you had to open an unlit gate or door during the hours of darkness, you could leave the headlights on, instead of either leaving the key on, allowing your car to be easily stolen, or to fumble in the dark.
The first car I drove that shut the lights off with the ignition was a nightmare when attending a late-night callout at a remote site.
Many later cars let you leave the lights on for a long enough interval to see what you were doing, then they automatically turned off---the best of both worlds!
