I honestly didn’t know they even nade them. I saw them at some point and thought when this shit keeps going, i might aswell become a cybergoth with a darth vader voice. But i assumed the hype died when mask mandates losend up
I seem to remember a time when there were no masks of any kind to be had anywhere. A makerspace I was involved in had a few sewing machines, and a few of those who could sew were making masks out of cloth they had lying around for personal use or sale. They were suddenly in demand.
I bought masks from a toy company (Playmobil) for my family, because there was literally nothing else available anywhere. They were marketed as alternatives to basic paper masks though, not N95 masks:
The innovation was that you could use tissue paper as filters and reuse the silicone mask after cleaning it. They were uncomfortable and stinky, but functional. We used these for about a month or two, long before any vaccines were available. I suspect that social distancing protected us far more than the masks, but either way, none of us got infected.
They make mice, keyboards, laptops, components, cell phones, clothing, peripherals like mousepads and deskmats, and some more. Quality is a bit all over the place and used to be good 15 years ago but they went cheap on parts at some point
I had the opportunity to use their mice 20 years ago. I came to the conclusion they filled the same niche as monster cables, if you were convinced to buy them, that was on you.
Why did anyone even look at Razer for a mask?! Beyond stupid
I’m one of the stupid. During the pandemic, it was a shit time and we didn’t know what was killing everybody.
And if that was the case, I wanted to be a cyber ninja.
I didn’t buy it though.
Had they shipped it with a free vibro-katana they would have had a sale from me.
you know, you can just order vibrators online
But think of the matching set combo! It might take forever, searching though the available vibrators for that color and style!
But do they have colorful RGB LEDs and shit management software?
No wait, don’t answer that, I’m afraid I already know the answer.
Apparently Razor already uses “Katana” as a brand for PSUs that they sell.

Ravers want just one thing and it makes me sick
Here’s the thing tho, if it ACTUALLY met the N95 filtering standard, and looked cool as shit… I’d absolutely buy one.
Prior to seeing this article, I’d have thought that a facemask was something that you couldn’t make a gamer version of, but apparently I was wrong.
Once again gamers prove to be the most oppressed people
Gamer moment
This is the gaming mouse company, right?
(That notably didn’t even make very good gaming nice)

I’m honestly surprised they’re still in business.
