Dev remaps mouse buttons to voice-input-first shortcuts and loves it

Indie developer yihui shares a small but effective tweak: using the Logi Options+ settings on a Signature Plus M750 mouse, he remapped the thumb buttons to voice AI shortcuts.
As shown in the screenshot, pressing the scroll wheel (Option+S) toggles voice input, while side buttons trigger translation (Fn+Left Shift) and a quick-ask assistant (Fn+Space). Turning a two-hand keyboard combo into a single click made voice input smooth enough that he calls the result "amazing".
