WTF Subscription for Hardware. Bruh
I know people who voluntarily chose to pay a subscription fee to Google for their doorbell.
We in the endgame now friend.
Cars have been doing this for a while now
I could almost see that for highly specialized expensive hardwareyou don’t need longterm.
A mouse is not that. Who the hell is subscribing to a mouse. Not some kind of monthly mouse subscription for people really into them, but just the right to keep using the one mouse you have. That is insane.
Consider this: i buy mice from AliExpress for 8 PLN and they aren’t much worse and more reliable than the fuckshit from Logitech or other Razer which cost 300 PLN.
Maybe they should first start producing mice again that are usable at all (without getting RSI from just looking at them from a distance).

lol PKD predicted late stage capitalism in Ubik pretty accurately
Subscriptions will be the death of me, I will have to start pirating like all the shit I watch just to afford a fast food meal like once a week smh
I bought a Logitech mouse that lasted me well over a decade. That little trooper only finally gave out a few years ago. That’s the only kind of forever mouse that I need.
G5 was perfect. The fact they make a new version every couple of years and every one is worse than the last, instead of simply keep making G5, is so telling.
“Hey everyone, we found an upgrade to planned obsolescence: we call it planned obsolescence 2.0. Instead of designing hardware to break and require replacing after a few years, we’ll design the software to break every month! We’ll say it’s an upgrade. It’ll reduce our material costs and we can pass those savings on to the shareholder.”
