We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I'm just surprised they didn't slap some LEDs in the eyes...

Way to ruin this for me. Now I'm not buying it until they give me LED eyes.

I dunno, I kinda like the audacity of it not fitting anything else on my desk. If it were $10 and still as well shaded it could be my print screen key or something

You could probably get someone to print one for not much money.

There are a lot of cheap third party manufacturers out there. Lots of small producers to support as well.
