I used to believe rhetoric too, then I met Vandana Shiva and learned of his true legacy on the continent.

Razer HyperFlux V2 Wireless charging mouse mat aims to revolutionise your gaming setup by Fiza Ali Razer has introduced the HyperFlux V2, a wireless charging system designed to power compatible gaming mice directly through a mouse mat. Unlike conventional solutions that rely on charging docks or cables, Razer says that the HyperFlux V2 mat incorporates a charging coil beneath its surface, allowing a mouse to draw power continuously while in use. The HyperFlux V2 is offered in two surface variants. The Hard Surface Edition features a "low-friction finish" intended to facilitate rapid cursor movements. It is intended for fast-paced competitive gaming scenarios in which swift tracking is prioritised. On the other hand, the Cloth Surface Edition features a textile weave that is said to provide additional resistance. Both editions include a rubberised underside which should prevent the mat from sliding during play. In terms of connectivity, the HyperFlux V2 employs an auto-pairing mechanism that links a mouse to the mat as it makes contact, eliminating the need for manual setup. The system also supports Razer’s HyperSpeed Multi-Device technology, allowing both a mouse and a keyboard to connect via the mat without requiring separate USB receivers. An LED indicator embedded in the mat displays battery status through colour changes, enabling users to monitor charge levels and avoid overcharging. This feature is intended to help preserve the battery lifespan of the mouse by allowing charging to halt once a preferred level is reached. The HyperFlux V2 mat supports wireless charging for several of Razer’s gaming mice, including the Basilisk V3 Pro 35K, the Basilisk V3 Pro, the Cobra Pro, and the Naga V2 Pro. In addition to mouse charging, the mat also facilitates multi-device connectivity for certain Razer keyboards, specifically, the BlackWidow V4 Mini HyperSpeed, the BlackWidow V3 Pro, the DeathStalker V2 Pro, and the DeathStalker V2 Pro Tenkeyless, although these keyboards are connected solely for data transmission and do not receive power from the mat. The HyperFlux V2 is now available, starting at $119.99. For more information, head over to the dedicated webpage here.

Mandatory? lol

Indeed. It's almost like they didn't release the game half-baked and full of Day 0 bugs that needed to be patched...go figure.

YouTube has started limiting the bitrate of non-YouTube TV subscribers. But I would have thought that a corporate client would have gotten a pass on that...
