Yes. It's incredible to me that this project seems to have been completed without knowledge or any intent to replicate this scene, that it seems to be entirely coincidental.

The Magic Mouse's charging port always gets memed on but to be honest that's the least offensive thing about it, since the battery goes for months between charges. The real problem is that it has some of the worst ergonomics of any input device on the market today for absolutely no reason besides aesthetics. If they moved the charging port it would still be a terrible mouse.

The author said their aim was to "be nondestructive to this Apple mouse", and would it truly be an Apple mouse if it didn't have at least one questionable design decision?
But, in all seriousness, I'm impressed that they were able to do this non-destructively.

Who sees an original mouse and thinks "speech recognition" without this classic context?

Same. I did like 5 text searches in the article to see if I had missed it somehow
