The 47-cent rubber band trick that fixed my Stardew timing

I kept missing the 2am pass-out window because I'd panic-click through my inventory, so last Tuesday I wrapped a thick rubber band around my mouse wheel to make scrolling slower. Turns out a $2 pack of bands from the hardware store did more for my cozy farm than any mod ever did. Anyone else got a dumb cheap fix that changed how they play?

Man, is this really the hill you're dying on? I get it, missing the 2am cutoff sucks, but a rubber band on your mouse wheel feels like fixing a papercut with a tourniquet. You could just, I dunno, slow down for two seconds and look at your inventory before the clock hits 1:50. I've played Stardew for like 400 hours and I've passed out maybe twice, and both times it was because I was trying to do way too much in one day, not because my scroll wheel was too fast. Honestly, the real fix is just learning to prioritize, not messing with your hardware. But hey, if it works for you, more power to you, I just can't wrap my head around calling that a game changer.
