You can emulate it by opening up your mouse and carefully ripping all of the button switches other than the left one out. Then go into your BIOS, underclock your CPU (or alternatively, go to the store you got your computer or parts from and just give them more money).
Then get some plaster and just cover up most of the ports on the back of your computer. Don't worry, you'll replace them with dongles, there's a nice selection available for purchase!
Then uninstall proton and go around claiming that your computer is the only one that can handle making art (doesn't matter if you're an artist, just smugly insist this is the case).
Oh also forget that your computer is a computer. I don't know what you need to think it is, but only nerds use computers, you're not a nerd, you're cool because you're on a mac. Or pretending to be on one.
This is gold
