I have a ploopy mouse and it's utterly fantastic.

So many buttons and has QMK firmware so I have actual layers on my mouse!

Why did they use such an obscene word for this?

"Ploopy"? I would say it's weird (for headphones) and maybe non-descriptive. How is it "obscene"?

In the book it's a word the little brother came up with, and if anyone said it to them they'd cry. Their mom banned it so in their house it was on the same level as swearing.

It's far easier to search for and find things with unique names, especially if one name will unite a family of things.

This looks really cool. Let's say I want to get into this. I have no idea about 3d printing, PCB boars or low level programming. I'm a software developer. Where do I start to learn all this? Which part do I take on first?

actually at the moment they just recommend you buy it from them and assemble it at home, if a part breaks you can then 3d print it. you cant 3d print every part though (e.g. usb c port)

I guess 3D printing is an easy start these days. Look into the 3d printing community here for guidance

What is a good project to start 3d printing? And why this one isn't?

A coworker has a pair of these and it’s pretty neat.

I have a pair, and they sound great! I do have some issues with the connection into the amp though, I think I've been to hard on the wire.
