I got like 20 of these motherfuckers and one hanging around my neck.

what is it?? never seen in my life

[–] Sc00ter@lemm.ee 2 points 10 hours ago

Ive had them for a handful of different devices, but theyre typically used to push in the tiny hole for ejecting sim/data cards or manual resets

I just put it back in the box when I'm done

I have a stack of boxes in the closet, because I might need them someday

[–] tomenzgg@midwest.social 5 points 17 hours ago

Yupppp; same here.

I think the Librem 5 (may've been another phone) came with a hole to attach to a keychain so it's the only one that I constantly have on me solely because someone thought to design for it.

I pinned one to my wall in my bedroom just in case

[–] Naevermix@lemmy.world 6 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I still have my first smartphone. It's from 2011 and the screen is undamaged.

I also still have the extra plugs for the in-ear headphones that came with it.

[–] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

ok sorry, right this way sir ==>

[–] SnortsGarlicPowder@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 hours ago

I have the round bit in my screwdriver set, the pointy bit broke off so I also now have a bent paperclip in there too.

[–] cerement@slrpnk.net 50 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

not whether you have it – it’s whether you know where it is

I think I lost it within seconds of turning my phone on for the first time lol

[–] UdeRecife@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 9 hours ago

I have several, all in a big keyring. I used one of them once. So I keep them. One never knows.

[–] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 15 points 17 hours ago

It's good to finally get some recognition!

[–] umbraroze@slrpnk.net 10 points 15 hours ago

I found a pencil holder I had in the 1990s. It has these little drawers for erasers and stuff. I was like "oh cool, I can fill the rest of these with my SD cards and USB sticks."

So, while cleaning my desk looking for those, I found one of these. I was like "I'm pretty sure I had at least 2 of these." ...I found three.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

I had one of these hanging out in my bathroom for forever. The little fucker wouldn't just go away.

[–] wazzupdog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I keep one on my key ring, never know when you need to pop in a burner sim.

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (2 children)

If you’re using a burner SIM in your regular phone then it’s not really a burner SIM.

Fine if you’re just using it to hide your phone number companies, but if you’re hiding from the authorities then it’s the devices IMEI which is going to sell you out I’m afraid.

I my keyring. Duh.

[–] orca@orcas.enjoying.yachts 2 points 12 hours ago

I keep one in my travel wire pouch thingy.

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 18 points 20 hours ago

Or, you know, a hoarding problem…

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I have one... somewhere. Probably in a tiny box, mixed in with my random cables

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 4 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

I hate the random cable drawer, but I'm always pulling shit out of it cause I need something in there.

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 2 points 14 hours ago

And that's why it can never go away. I keep mine in a box in a closet, but it's accessed multiple times a year. Hell, I just broke it out the other day for a VGA cable

[–] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 12 hours ago

I do have one but don't know here is it in the sea of shit I have.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

It's in my phone repair kit XD

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

smug look of superiority

Ah Fairphone 5 life

[–] Benaaasaaas@group.lt 7 points 17 hours ago

Same here, Sony Xperia

[–] Spoilt@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Forbidden abortion tool

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I threw all of those away. I have paper clips, and those eject holes are intentionally designed to be the width of a bent paper clip.

Those things are just a less useful paper clip.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 7 points 18 hours ago

They're easier to use, but a monotasker, so yea, gimme a paperclip

[–] fuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 20 hours ago (1 children)
[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

I tried that, but it pierced through the leather and escaped

[–] gnu@lemmy.zip 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I have one in my wallet - they are quite handy for cleaning lint out when the phone charging port inevitably collects enough to be annoying.

Probably, but it doesn't matter. A number of small improvised tools will do the same job.

[–] Metz@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

One? Easely 10.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 12 points 20 hours ago

I open so many tablets and shit at my work I have preferences on form. Samsung has the worst ones.

[–] oppy1984@lemm.ee 1 points 11 hours ago

I have 3, 2 ovals and 1 circle.

[–] Brian437@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

I still have it and I bought backups

[–] ultrafastsloth@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

I have dumped like 30 of them into trash recently because I tend to sometimes replace/repair phone parts for people and if you buy a replacement part it comes with this thing.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

How about just messy? Occasionally I still find them laying around

[–] Avg@lemm.ee 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I keep it in my keychain, save the back up ones in the junk drawer.

* AF

I tied a string around mine and threw it into one of those organiser boxes that's full of all sorts of other small items; it's there, I just need to remember exactly in which box (out of several dozen like this) it is.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 5 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I have one with a big duct tape flag/handle. Stays in the phone kit with spudgers, tiny screwdrivers, etc.

I have multiple. I keep the phone boxes after I buy a phone. I probably still have them for 3 or even all my 4 smartphones that I've owned over the years.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

I just tossed several. I have used them rarely but kept up with every one ever

[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

Mine is in my case with adapters & extra SD cards.

Where that case IS however, fuckin, no clue.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

I have a bunch of them.
