How they make it hard to fix this heater - videos.trom.tf/w/krjeSgmcz3HD6…
These motherfuckers put some weird screws on this electrical heater so you cannot open it unless you have a very specific screw driver. Absolutely criminal behavior. But I understand it. You have to trade in this world in order to survive and thrive, and so these tactics can create advantages for you: the heater breaks, people buy a new one. Done. More profit.
If we can't change the incentive we cannot change these behaviors.

Slack, can you PLEASE accept no for answer?
In this banner, they took it one step further and even replaced the close button with a minimize button. 😞

Dear clothing manufacturers: what the fuck?

@n3wjack that's true. And notice that while practicaly all things in Android settings that can be turned on/off, are convinient slider buttons, this particular "you can turn off assistant anytime" opition looks like an external hyperlink. Deceptive by design.

Watching a replay of a soccer game played earlier today whose outcome I do not know.
The score ticker at the bottom of the screen shows ...the final score of this game.

@stephanie I keep running into ziplock "resealable" bags with the tear off perforations BELOW the zipper.
If you tear off the top the zipper is gone too.
#assholedesign was the sub reddit for it.

Thank God that companies are now starting to become more environmentally conscious!
100% recycled paper. Tell me that does not give you more confidence that we are going to, finally, make this world a better place.
So what that inside of it are 2 plastic bags full of chips!? I mean, they are at least trying!
I find it so hard to take this idiocracy of a society seriously. I think it is me who is in the wrong here, trying to think that this society can become sane. But perhaps I should take it for what it is: a total joke.

These long lists of options to "Manage your data" when one simply wants to visit a website are such a pain. They are designed to induce fatigue, so people will just accept whatever. Who the hell reads all these options and enables a selected few cookies in thoughtful agreement?
If these popups are going to be required, a "reject all" button should also be enforced in an equally prominent position as "accept all".

Who comes up with these stupid #rating scales?
If you can't open the image, it is basically asking me to rate (on a scale of 1-10) whether I would recommend a service I used, with the following rating definitions:
1-6 Not at all likely
7-8 Not sure
9-10 Extremely likelyIsn't that just a 1-5 (or just a Yes/No/Maybe?) with extra stupidity? Also, what about 'somewhat likely'? Why should everything be superlative?
