Do you remember Jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel and the entire line of video game peripherals that Razer made sporting his likeness?

Well it got worse. Not content with already being the world's most embarrassing company on Earth, Razer set out to top themselves (bottom themselves?)

First there's Project Brooklyn. An elite gaming chair with a wrap-around retractable screen. Now you can own noobs without even leaving your highchair while mommy brings you some cereal.



But that's not even the dumb stuff this thread is about. Are you ready for this? No, you're not, and you never will be. But buckle up bucko because you're getting it anyway.


Meet Project Hazel.

THE WORLD’S SMARTEST MASK
This RGB-infused n95 mask has a host of sick-rear end features, such as voice amplification and an Instagram Snapchat Filter that lets you take a video of yourself with a CGI Project Hazel mask on your face. :hellyeah:

The gum is a spin-off product and according to their ads chewing the stuff makes dust fly out of your eyes so you can see your enemies better

I love that the old joke of sticking an RBG light on something and upcharging for it now being gamerfied is as true as ever.

Rub it in their face. Gamer lube and condoms. Gamer pregnancy tests. Gamer family that cares. All things they'll never know what to do with them.

Spooked ya...

The cabinet spills open dusting the counter with a fine neon green powder coat. I look over my shoulder and see the loading bar is hovering around 50%.

"poo poo! I don't have time for this!"

My Razr watch chimes, alerting me that my heart rate and blood pressure are dangerously high. The 802.11x enabled device recommends I "Drink a Monster Cooldown Extrm to keep my trigger finger steady!" Not to be delayed further, I use the sleeve of my ROG STRIX WI-FI hoodie to push the majority of the dust onto the ground. If I can't have the GamerFuel powder from the bottom of the Twitchios, then surely my iRobot: Rick and Morty Shwifty Sweeper Edition will enjoy the treat.

Frantically, I throw open the rest of the cabinets in search of a bowl only to find all of them dirty, radiating a nuclear hue, in the sink. After a quick rinse and shake, I pour some cereal and Pepsi into what still smells like a bedpan. My sense of smell completely deadened by the festering poop socks and black mold growing from what will surely be a condemned property, I pay no attention to my rancid treat and quickly shovel it into my mouth with an old 2GB stick of DDR2 RAM.

While using my last two, uncracked molars to chew a meal that tasted like a gummy bear found between couch cushions, I peer over the top of my Gunnars to see the load bar approaching critical mass. Startled, I drop the bowl onto the ground, shattering it into a million little pieces. Cockroaches appear from beneath the sink to smuggle the remaining bits of food left stuck to what was once probably the cleanest surface in the house. Two of the bugs stay back, boldly feasting in front of me. The remaining duo suddenly start running in erratic patterns for a few seconds before stopping completely. I pay this no mind as I hop over the mess giving a little "Wahoo!" like Mario.

"God, I'm so random!"

I get back back to my desk in time to give my best Apex Legends performance to date: a 0.2 KD and only 3 racial slurs shouted over the mic.

I've been saying for a while that the covid mask situation is a massive marketing opportunity as it basically has introduced a new article of clothing that everyone is expected to wear, and nerds already thought gas masks look cool so why not lean into it

Didn't expect Razr to be the ones to pick up on it, but here we are I guess

The transparent plastic over the mouth is probably there primarily to make it look cool and show off the lighting, but as a bonus it would allow people with bad/no hearing to lip read, which is a common complaint I hear about the standard masks :shrug:

Haha, this reminds me of back when my company was printing cards for Upper Deck and for a hot minute we produced a series of pro gamer cards along with traditional sports cards. There were headshots of the players in their team shirts all just like this with their stats and usernames and everything.

Kind of :same:

I'm a nurse, so I know masks are definitely a mixed bag, but I also know my elastomeric respirator is a hell of a lot more comfortable and protects better than a surgical mask But practically shouting to be heard gets old really quickly, so the voice thing and the clear front seem good?

The big cons would be that thing needs to strap around the back of your head, because it's gonna be hella heavy on your ears. And are they actually powering a fan or something at the filters to exchange air, or is charging just for the stupid lights?

I dunno.

That high chair and the thimbles... jfc the cringe

Watch the mask cost six to eight times what a 3M secure click does and not actually seal or filter properly.

TO BE FAIR such masks are designed to protect the wearer from what they inhale, with little care given to what happens to the exhaled air (it just kinda blasts out the front), whereas covid solutions like this one are at least in theory designed around stopping particulate spray from exhalation

i am 100% down with that mask and have wanted one for a while. it seems like if everything's not on fire so you need a mask, there's a horrible airborne disease so you need a mask. so if it is just going to apocalypse all the time a) lets get it done with a high quality reusable thing that does it all well and b) lets make it look as crazy as possible because poo poo is hosed and i want people to feel as uncomfortable about it as i do
