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....
Is it for safety? So kids don't swallow the batteries?
besides they’re all internal lithium now anyway…
So...you're pissed about screws that don't exist?
Also, survival bias doesn't mean something isn't a hazard.
The ones that aren't internal still exist.
Also, survival bias doesn't mean something isn't a hazard.
Well in that case we should all carry magical rocks around our necks to prevent people from being attacked by bears
See how that works the other way?
No it doesn't. One actually prevents a hazard. Do you know how many people argued "we never wore seatbelts and were just fine" when seatbelt laws were introduced? You'll still find people today that think there's no real issue riding in the back of a truck.
Unlike your stupid attempt at a counter, real kids really died from actually swallowing batteries. It's not a joke, or a myth, or fake magic, that screws prevent this from happening as easily. Just like seatbelts prevent people dying in car accidents as easily.
If you want to make an argument for screws on remotes, I think a much better one is kids generally have free access to the damn remote equally as much as the toys.
Then how do I un do it and put it back on over and over?
I need something to keep my hands busy while I watch tv
Search 'Fidget Toys' on Amazon, some of them are amazing.
don't.
search for "pen spinning" instead. You don't need to buy anything to learn a thousand ways to spin a pen
