🎉🎨 In a feat that truly no one asked for, a Reddit user has blessed us with a "camera" made from an optical mouse. After 65 hours of engineering wizardry, we now have a grainy, black-and-white magic box perfect for capturing the true essence of nothing. 🐭📷 Bravo!

💡 Some people chase profits. Others build magic.

I love projects like this one:
👉 https://lnkd.in/dx2rU3un

It turns your MacBook trackpad into a digital scale.
No special hardware. No ads. No paywall. Just… curiosity turned into code.

It hijacks the Force Touch sensors, calibrates raw pressure data, and gives you surprisingly accurate weight readings—all with your finger and a clever hack.

This is what I wish more tech looked like:
🧠 smart
🧰 simple
💸 not for sale

While others gatekeep innovation behind SDKs and subscriptions, this project goes:
here’s how it works, enjoy.
Open Source with purpose, not polish for profit.

It’s niche, odd, and brilliant.
And that’s exactly why it matters.

To everyone trying to monetise every byte:
You’re missing the joy. You’re missing the point.

To TrackWeight:
You nailed it.
Hacky, educational, experimental.
No evil. No upsell. Just exploration.
Thumbs up.
