Wireless mouse is not named hampter :(
Fun fact: The mouse was already invented in the 60s and was part of the famous “Mother of all Demos” which shaped modern computing like no other single event since then.
Kind of good that the guy died in 2013, before the whole networked-computers thing started really going to shit

RGB gamer sperm 😎

1 - they kinda resemble a milouse with a tail 2 - the cursor on the screen used to be called a ‘CAT’
It was in the 60s! Look up Douglas Engelbart.
