find it amusing that CNN, in an article about capers (of all things), uses scissors wraps and the "Apple mouse" [sic] as examples of bad design.

I mean sure, its a weird design, but there's worse out there!

@terhechte it’s crazy the hate the Apple mouse gets. I charge it when I’m not going to use it. Like with my Apple Watch.
@Craktok @terhechte Except when you unexpwctedly find the battery flat, then you'll have to wait at least for a few minutes while the thing pickd up enough energy for a few hours' worth of work. Not so bad, but entirely unnecessary, especially from a company that takes so much pride in their user-friendly designs...
@gnaddrig @Craktok I don't disagree. I just find it curious because there're things that are worse designed. In a way where they cause physical damage but somehow the Apple Mouse ended up in this article about scissors and capers :)
@terhechte @Craktok Well, if you put it like that, I agree that it is a curious choice. I'm no Apple fan, but for some, criticising Apple seems to be something between a hobby and an obsession.
@terhechte secretly, it’s great design to steer people to using external trackpads, like any sane Mac user would 😅
@terhechte I got rid of that Apple mouse when it stopped working years ago. Went back to the battery version tho and works great.
