In a world that is losing the fight on climate change, we should be more thoughtful on what is greenlit to be manufactured and shipped. There are real consequences to everyone and the environment for making a 100,000 pieces of junk, shipping them to stores, and then a sizeable amount of them being sent to the dump after they are not sold or are tossed after a few months for being ineffective.

Actually I would find this useful. If it works well.

How long do you see this origami jawn lasting in the hands of your kid?

There are mouses that can bend while you use it and snap flat when you want to store it, like this

Reminds me of Microsoft Arc Mouse. Which I think is an excellent mouse

The best kind of truth

This looks like one of those awful official Amazon Kindle origami covers had a baby with a Microsoft Arc mouse.

The Arc mouse has been around for sometime, has decent reviews, and the regular MSRP is the exact same is this but often goes on sale for cheaper. Who is this product actually for?

I can see a usage case for some very, very specific scenario.

like, I have a BT controller for my galaxy fold to stream my gaming rig to it and play on it like it was a beefed up steam deck.

I guess I could see the use of a foldable mouse (something more like microsoft iteration though) and foldable keyboard to go along the foldable tablet, stream my pc to the thing and have the most powerful (streaming) portable computer ever.

I still have 4 core cpu...I'm so outdated

.. I ... kinda want one. Just to ... have it.

Then I read the kickstarter and I saw they were asking for 385. And I was like "ssssss... yea, but no."

But then I read that it was foreign money and it amount to about 50 bucks. And then I was like "sssss... yea, but no."

I mean, no. It folds flat as many times as ya please.

But its functionality beyond that point enters question...

Stupid

If it works well, which I’m skeptical of, I would consider it. People keep talking about the arc mouse, looking at the pictures it doesn’t seem particularly thin.

I mean it’s close, I’d need more pictures of the mouse above it appears to be much slimmer and flexible.

It’s creative.

While I’ll never use it, I can appreciate the creativity that went behind this idea.

If someone likes it, they can use it. If not, they can just not purchase it.

Why do people love to whine about something existing which doesn’t fit them nor their purpose?

I just came off a thread of a guy who relentlessly complains (11 comments) about a doctor seeking attention because he made the video about his achievement — The doctor suffered from a condition but made a medical breakthrough which saved himself and saves thousands of lives. But how dare he make a video telling the world his life story eh? How dare he? /s

Some people live their entire lives to take others down. It’s just sad to see this fleshing out everywhere on Reddit & in real life.

But still technically true!

It looks like it would be terrible to actually use. You really don’t have room in your bag for a real mouse?

Meanwhile nowadays everyone has thick 10 inch iPhones with massive camera bumps, huge cases, and pop sockets on the back and they manage to somehow fit them next to their asses in their jeans pockets. But yeah, how could we ever survive without a flat mouse lol.

Is your cat making tooooo muuuch noise?! Try Kitten Mittons!

Mogo mouse

This seems like something that would be cool to design in like a sophomore engineering course but wouldn’t translate well to the real world.

…once.

Everything folds flat if you try hard enough!
