If you use a laptop with a trackpad which you can scroll with two fingers, and you don’t have a pinkie related disability, does your little finger do this?

I don't use the trackpad if I can possibly help it, so I dunno!

But my little finger tends to do *this* when doing similar tasks where it's not needed.

@lnr Does the joint lock, i.e. you can't bend it in that position? I get that, too (but not in situations as described above).

@karohemd Very gently locked, it kind of clunks a bit as I go to bend it.

To add even more variety, when I use the first two fingers to do something, I keep the others curled, not sticking out.

@Ozzy The third is just about happy to be curled, but when it’s raised above the trackpad the pinkie feels like it has to be elevated too
