Fruit of the Loom has no plans for a subscription underpants.

But what about an AI mouse?

Wow, a mouse with an extra button that can only be used to launch some process which opens up a window to ChatGPT. What a great use of AI!

This is like the lover who says "wouldn't it be crazy if you and me had a threesome with your best friend"? Then claims not to be serious when the idea is rejected.

[-] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

I would love to see more movement on an open source mouse. I know there are some options out there but it seems like nothing has really stuck.

With 3d printing and the RP2040, these should be more abundant.

I'm sure it probably comes down to the sensors available, but I'd love for someone like Adafruit to offer options.

Absolutely fucking not

i have a logitech mouse from the 90s that plugs in and still works why do i need a subscription?

[-] reddit_sux@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

That is the reason why they r pushing for a subscription. If everyone who wants a mouse have a mouse how will the poor company earn money. How will the billionaire buy another yacht.

how about linux software

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

They already can't make a fucking mouse that won't suffer from double clicks within a few years. They have a model, albeit a shitty one, that has people repeatedly buying their products. I will never buy another Logitech product if they even make a "luxury" mouse for the wealthy that has subs, even if they keep a free option. It's not for me, but the existence of such product is a deal breaker in itself.

Logi CEO: "Heh, yeah, well you know, there is a rich tradition of tech companies pranking the public with silly, unexpected practical jokes on April 1."

"But sir, it's August."

"Oh, well I guess that's what makes it so unexpected, heh. Yeah. Unless you want a mouse subscription? No? Oh, just forget that I asked - that was, ah, part of the joke. Apr- August Fools!"

As shoddy as the QC has been lately, I'm sure they have their consumer base to worry about. I bought a gray lift ergo mouse. Left click stopped working properly after about 3 weeks. Bought a cheaper, legit 3-button with a wheel also. Adjustable, rechargeable cordless. Works wonderfully after a month.

Works wonderfully after a month.

Is that the quality standard these days?

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Well when the previous one lasted only three weeks...
