I tried two Anker chargers on my Samsung phone last week, a 20W and a 45W, and the 45W actually charged slower because it had a different voltage profile. Turns out the phone's chip decides the speed, not just the number on the box. Has anyone else found a charger that claims high watts but doesn't deliver for your specific device?
Wasted that cash plus had to pay a locksmith $85 to drill the thing off my door because the bolt got stuck halfway, so just stick with a regular deadbolt if you ask me.
Back around 2005, I'd spend an hour picking songs and burning a CD for a drive to my cousin's place in Phoenix. Now I just plug my phone into the car and hit shuffle on a playlist. I miss the ritual of pulling out that little disc and seeing my bad handwriting on it. Does anyone else feel like we traded something good for convenience, or is it just me?
I bought a 6-pack of those super thin flat Cat6 cables off Amazon for my home office, thinking theyd look cleaner along the baseboards. After 3 days, my internet kept cutting out randomly and I traced it to two of the cables just failing to maintain a connection. Should I just go back to regular round cables or is there actually a brand of flat ones that doesn't crap out on you?
I counted 16 dog barks, 2 microwave dings, and 3 toilet flushes in that meeting alone. Why did we all learn this lesson in 2020 just to forget it by 2024?
I was driving home from work last week and asked Siri to call my wife, but she kept hearing 'call my life' instead. I said it maybe 5 times before I just gave up and pulled over to dial manually. It's wild how Apple's voice recognition can't handle anything outside that perfect American accent. Has anyone else with a different accent just stopped using voice assistants altogether?
I was typing out a long email on my phone last week and kept getting annoyed at having to switch to the symbols keyboard just for a period. My coworker saw me doing it and laughed. She showed me the double space bar trick. Took me 30 seconds to learn and now I'm mad at myself for not knowing it for 5 years. Has anyone else been doing this the hard way?
Spent 6 months blaming my router for spotty connection in the kitchen, until a Best Buy kid asked if I configured the extender through their app. Just assumed you plug it in and it works like magic. Has anyone else been stuck with a tech thing that was user error the whole time?
