If this is true what a dumb reason. Basically decided to make a device that could be used 100% of the time unusable for some fraction of time just because it looks the way he wanted it too.

Came here to say can opener too. Not for the same reason as you mentioned just that more often than not a can opener is just plain shoddy. Slips, doesn’t fully cut, hard to grip, etc….

terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the weirdest thing you have ever seen on someone's phone or computer?11·6 months agoI also worked as a computer tech at a university. Often i had to backup someones drive to cds or dvd depending on the situation. If a folder was too large we would ask permission to go into it to break it into smaller chunks. I began to loathe having to subdivide large photo folders onto cds. Way too many times of opening a folder of smutty pictures.
I’m scared to ask, but what in holy hell is an oil pie?
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What email provider do you use? Would you recommend it?2·11 months agoI do exactly the same thing. Some more spam from time to time but usually thunderbird catches that for me.
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What email provider do you use? Would you recommend it?6·11 months agoMxroute with thunderbird as a client and mail on iOS for mobile.
Unlimited domains and rock solid. Just don’t expect lots of hand holding the company focuses on making email work you have to sort out your own details. That being said they have good documentation.
A phone plan with a phone. You pay more over time and you get stuck with a contract.
Buy a phone and get a plan from a MVNO. Your monthly plan will be better and cheaper. Also since you own the phone when a better plan appears you can just switch.
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Men in their 40s, what’s one piece of advice for men in their 20s?132·11 months agoIf you want kids, don’t put it off for too long. I waited till my late 30s because I was never ready. Here’s the thing you will never feel completely ready. As long as your life is basically stable (job, housing, and no serious issues) you will be okay.
Kids are hard but super rewarding. If you have them young then you’ll get to see them as adults in your 40s. By the time my kids are adults I’ll be pushing 60 and hoping that I live long enough to meet a grandchild.
People have successfully (shades of grey here I know) been having kids for a long time. You’ll never feel “ready” but rest assured you’ll figure it out.
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Men in their 40s, what’s one piece of advice for men in their 20s?8·11 months agoAlso regarding university figure out your reasons for studying whatever it is you’re going to study before going into massive debt for it. Too many people my age went to university a bit aimlessly because going to university after high school is what was supposed to happen. Then they spend the next decade or two kicking themselves about their debt and how they were naive about what they studied.
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the worst IT setup you have seen at a company?2·1 year agoI can vouch for this. My coworker has his password post it noted to his monitor now
terminal@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•which one do you prefer? having kids or no kids? and why??21·1 year agoKids. The whole world is new and interesting to them and that is infectious.
