fun fact in windows if you add a bluetooth device with one bluetooth usb dongle and then lose that dongle and start using a different one you can no longer remove the devices that were paired with the first single and they remain listed in your computer forever

brought to you by the people who need to reinstall the HID drivers whenever you change your mouse's USB port

@PsyChuan when you install a driver on windows it's associated with the combination of device descriptor and bus connection i guess

if you change it it'll take the same drivers you already installed so it's hands-free but it goes through the whole driver song and dance in the background

that's what ends in "your device is set-up and ready to use" notification
