    You know what FUCKIN GRINDS MY GEARS!!!

    All these kids toys that you need to swap batteries out consistently has these fucking screws you need to unscrew…

    And yet, something like a remote that the cover gets pulled off like MAYBE once a year, doesn’t have one, and the cover breaks/falls off, goes missing.

    Remove the screw from the kids toys… no one in the 80’s/90’s ever swallowed a god damn battery… besides they’re all internal lithium now anyway…

    PUT THE MINI-SCREW ON THE REMOTES!!! For the love of fuck…

      So…you’re pissed about screws that don’t exist?

      Also, survival bias doesn’t mean something isn’t a hazard.

      Is it for safety? So kids don’t swallow the batteries?

        Search ‘Fidget Toys’ on Amazon, some of them are amazing.

    cameras are the best fidget toys, mind you, rather expensive if you’re only going to use it as a fidget toy, but if you’re into photography already ahhhh

    i particularly adore the SD card slot opening, and the flash release, peak things to flick when i’m idling with my camera in hand

        Most Mastodon posts can’t really be read by lemmy, but if a Mastodon user posts to a community it usually appears as a text post.

          I’ve seen Mastodon image posts also appear on Lemmy, as image posts.

          But if they upload multiple images to Mastodon, only the first one makes it here. And they can reply to comments on their post, but any images in said reply don’t appear.

            This feels like a lemmy-side issue and potentially one that would be solved by the rendering/app layer.

              I dunno, maybe. I’ve never really looked in to the ActivityPub protocol. I have heard accusations of Mastodon having an extremely non-standard implementation of it though, so it’s probably a bit of both.

                Yea, it probably could be best solved through cooperation but the thing that springs to mind for me is that card responses for link unfurling have a standard way of presenting an image, or text, or an image embedded in text - but there’s no standard (even an unofficial standard) way to clearly respond that the link unfurling should be multiple images in an arbitrary gallery ordering. If multiple images are returned in a card the context reads like a blob of text with multiple images in series.
