    unplug it or right click my computer, go to manage, then go to device manager and go to HID-devices then find your mouse, right click it and go to disable.

    unplugging it is easier or even better why not just cover it with a towel or something?

    Open it up and disable the bulb
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.
