Multiple ones.

Like seven a drawer somewhere. I don't know where though

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

I have three downstairs in the garage, now the real question is... Where in the garage tho.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

I still have like eight of those. I bought some smart devices a while ago that all had them for the reset hole, so I’m stocked up for life.

smug look of superiority

Ah Fairphone 5 life

Same here, Sony Xperia

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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I have two, and I know exactly where they are. If GPS were more accurate, I could give you the GPS coordinates for each of them.

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

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

The ones I have seen most recently are so thin and flimsy that they are worse at the job than a paperclip.

I usually find my thinnest allen wrench and use that.

In an electronics tool kit.

Mostly because the only time recall using that specific tool was when I got my Pixel 8, and that was shortly after release, so its been a minute.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

oof yeah wow they're on what, the pixel 9 now? That was ages ago.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You only need it when setting up a new phone. So once you put the card in, you put the tool back in the phone’s box and just stick that in a closet.

So I’m asking… how CAN you even misplace one of those?

[–] emergencyfood 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

What do you mean you don't take out the sd card every so often so you can quickly transfer 48GB of cat videos to your computer?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I have more than one. The key is the word somewhere.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I can confirm that this is false

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I have some smart devices that came with these so I appear very responsible.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I have mine under my phone cover. Got sick of losing them all the time when I needed one. Since I put it under the cover, I've only needed it about two times. (Under my cover for over a year).

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I have about 8 of those. I'm a fucking packrat

I have a small zip bag of 100+ of these in a drawer. Sometimes you gotta pop out a SIM card. Other times you gotta hit a pinhole reset button to fix a rogue router. In a pinch, they're also a good shiv or shank.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

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

Planning ahead? Sounds pretty responsible to me

I have a key holder with a fabric holder above it for random things. Like my checkbook for paying the gardeners, the mailbox keys, and this doodad is leftover from when I used to have a rechargeable front door camera doorbell.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

I have one sitting on my fireplace mantle in a little dish. It's there to pop our Arlo doorbell off when it needs to come inside to charge.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

I'm sure I have it in a box somewhere, but paperclips open up SIM slots just as well as SIM tools do.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

I've got at least 2 on my desk. Both from my new phones ( the one I accidentally fried in a lake and the replacement I got ). They're both connected to some little piece of magnet strip that I have no idea where it came from.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

One in my wallet at all times.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

I have 3 lying around somewhere. Comes in handy every few years

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

What if I have three sitting on my desk right now?
