Yeah I guess late Jobs era Magic Mouse rip off is my only option. Too bad they only come in black or white.

Also I want a mouse shaped mouse now, but how do you search it?

I appreciate this mouse although the price is a bit on the high side

It doesn't look out of place alongside a Mac, takes normal batteries and has bluetooth so you don't waste a usb port on a dongle.

Does Ali have a decent mouse with a 2d touchpad instead of a scroll wheel?

Do you have it? Is it really metal shell? I think I am going to go for it. It was released 3 year ago, but it uses AA battery so it should be fine.

I tried "computer mouse animal" and got a lot of cutesy options. Mostly hamsters though instead of actual mice.

Turns out I misremembered, I got another variant that is a bit smaller https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33001606757.html
I do think the first one I posted is a lot prettier though.

The one I have is plastic with some kind of thin top layer that feels like real metal and is cold to the touch.

Mouse shaped mouse works fine in Google. It also gave a result of an instructive on how to make a taxidermied computer mouse, which is awful but kind of funny.

I recently saw a streamer fawning over a new mouse by a chinese manufacturer I never heard of, apparently it was immediately sold out after release. Already forgot what it was called. Anyone ring a bell?

You might have luck finding knockoffs on Ali by searching for "oshiri mouse," but expect some less-than-savory hits, too, since "oshiri" just means "butt."

I've always been confused about Black Friday sales on Ali, considering how it apparently takes several months for purchases to arrive. Do they expedite shipments so they'll be delivered in time for Christmas, or do they just call it a Black Friday sale because it's happening on Black Friday, delivery dates be damned?

They’ve been shipping stuff within 14 days recently. Probably to compete with Temu.

I definitely feel like it’s the latter: delivery dates be damned. I’ve got a few things in my cart waiting to see if Friday will see a price drop or not.

Weird not-money coins and notes that are definitely not authorised. There’s hundreds of these and I don’t think anyone would want to buy them but here they are:

One of my orders I was starting to give up on arrived, after about two months, the last three weeks of which after it left customs and was handed to the local postal service... But then, the paper cutter I posted earlier arrived in just about two weeks. Logistics is such an adventure!

Getting more of my 11.11 stuff. The work knife(the 1858 on the link) I got for $1.79 is surprisingly nice. Seems sturdy and comes with 4 blades. Should be great for opening packaging. Even at 6, it's not bad.
