    # tl;dr
    this was the final command for me
    `xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0`
    ```
    xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0
    ```

    # how did I get there:

    `xinput --list`
    ```
    xinput --list
    ```
    watch for ids on each line.

    `xinput --list-props 13`
    ```
    xinput --list-props 13
    ```

    `xinput --set-props 13 142 0`
    ```
    xinput --set-props 13 142 0
    ```

    Ids are dynamically alocated but you can use device and property name, thus:
    `xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0`
    ```
    xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0
    ```
