    Not that I think much of the software industry, but “if you don’t like the interface than that’s your problem” is so laughably, fundamentally antithetical to everything we’ve ever learned about making software that I’m struggling to process this as anything but satire.

    If you got ‘really good at the interface’ and it still fucks up your input 10% of the time, then it is not a good interface. A good interface will only fuck up inputs that you are skilled at 1/10000 times or even less. Imagine if you will, a keyboard that enters in the wrong letter 1/10 times.

    Anyone remember the blinking clock on their VCR?

    No?

    This is why bad interface design vanishes into the forgotten past.

    Fumes for 3 paragraphs straight

    I don’t need to get defensive

    Also, this guy’s going to find out what a “you problem” is when nobody buys whatever counterintuitive crap this is. Best case scenario, analogous tech will become popular and this fellow will cope saying they used it before anyone else.

    Nitter link - https://nitter.poast.org/raywongy/status/1778424557499544060

    Nitter is dead but nitter.poast.org lives on (sorta). Why? I have no idea.

    That link might say “Tweet not found”. Reloading the page over and over might get the page to display.

    -–

    What I love about Twitter is that comments can be perfect bits except they aren’t. It’s unironic.

    The display doesn’t look readable at all.

    well a video doesn’t do it justice. it’s perfectly readable when it’s not under extremely bright light like direct sunlight

    I looked up some reviews of this thing because I was curious what it actually is, and after reading them, I’m still not sure what this object does.

    Just watched a tech YouTuber video where this thing confidently miscounted the number of chicken nuggets in a box and provided the answer without qualification.
