i hate you. I had one for years, i think it fell down, and it's integrated itself into my carpet by now i think...

It's gone.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Oh, of course I still have it

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Hah, that's why I bought a little treasure chest that I have on my desk. I keep magic stuff there like usb keys, a lighter, these things (whatever they are called? Sim card pins?), anything that is small and infrequently used.

I call them reset button pushers

Leatherman bracelet has one built in so I don't even need those

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I have one as a screwdriver bit so I just toss them in a bin of misc metal bits.

I used to keep one on my keyring.

I finally took it off after the 4th time I had to pull it out of my thigh.

I keep a paperclip clipped to my wallet's coin compartment. Very handy

Don't use condoms from wallets at all! Wallets damage condoms with friction and stuff so they aren't safe to store them in

The more you know🌈⭐

That's a strange looking paper clip.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I used a needle. But uhm... It was the microphone hole.

I wonder where that puts me on the responsibility spectrum.

I just have an iFixit kit with a SIM ejector head included.

I got mine! Let me dig though my pile of empty boxes in a room I haven't organized since I moved here like a year ago!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I keep all useful tools. Even those crappy Allen wrench screwdrivers that come with cheap furniture.

I've met so many people who don't own a single tool, and I always try to give them my extras I've been collecting.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Pro tip, I duct tape all the tools under whatever piece of furniture it came with. Just in case I ever need to tighten anything or whatever. I do have a tool kit with everything now but that wasn't always the case.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I still use one from the first phone I had which needed this crap. So I have 3 of them in total. Actually, 4, I've got one extra in a screwdriver set.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I don't need that. My sim is accessible my removing the back cover and battery.

You using a fairphone?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I have one on my keychain, which is sometimes a huge pain in the thigh, the hand or the fabric of the jeans, but it's worth it, because I use it like, every six months.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Yeah, I did that, until one day I was digging my keys out of a pocket and the prong ended embedded deep under my fingernail. Never again.

Safety pin is the way to go .

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Don’t use a safety pin. The sharp point can slip between internal joints and cause damage for certain electronics. Use a paper clip.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I don't have one. Not because I had one and lost it, but because the phone I'm using was made before these existed.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Dozens of Archeology PhD theses will be written about these a thousand years from now.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

Similar useless everyday objects sitting in a museum today from less time ago that we pay money to stare at. Heck there's a Walkman in a museum...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Impossible! We can't even find these things now. How will they ever find them in a thousand years from now?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

One fell out of my dryer today.

I haven’t used one in over a year. Quite perplexing.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

I have at least 2 that I know where they are.
