Palm Sweat Begone! MetalStrike Joystick With Built-In AC

The MetalStrike from Genius is a Joystick With Built-In Air Conditioning.

Yeah, I’m just going to leave that one hanging for a bit.

I sometimes wonder if when future generations talk about our era and the decades-long financial and environmental apocalypse that it produced, they will mention stuff like this as indicators that our civilization was not just in decline but stick-a-fork-in-em done.

Anyway, if hot hands is such a problem for you that you think you can justify the purchase of one of these you should know that it features “Three levels (off/1/2) of air control to keep your hand cool plus feel the effects of flying”. It also comes with vibration, force-feedback and 13 programmable buttons.

Hang on – Isn’t that actually two levels plus ‘off’? Hmm.
