Got a notification on my phone this morning informing me that my alarm didn't go off because background tasks are restricted. 🤦

Yet another precious moment lost by laggy camera software. I guess I should've cleared my cache before my baby did that cute thing.

Phone OEMs: Let's get rid of a ubiquitous, hot-pluggable port that works nearly perfectly and replace it with multiple radios and a massive stack of software so we can save a few pennies on manufacturing and make our phone even more thin and fragile.

Me: Why aren't these wireless headphones connecting? Do I have to restart the phone? The headphones? Maybe a firmware update???

Why would anyone make a laptop fingerprint reader the same colour as the surrounding chassis? Are we all using our computers in well lit rooms? Do we all have perfect vision?

Bluetooth speakers that have sounds that, when a device is connected, play at full volume regardless of how careful you are to make sure none of your devices are cranked up. It always seems to involve a mid to high mid frequency tone with some sort of kick drum to show off the bass response -- perfect for waking up a baby! Blam this POS!

When your phone vibrates for no discernable reason. No new notifications. No indication at all of what those two little buzzes were trying to convey, but their message is lost to time, now

Does anybody know the logic that decides which apps appear when I hit the 'app switcher' button? It seems only slightly short of random.

I'm amazed at the Google Photos widget for . It has AI to detect faces to show in the widget but not to frame them properly. It has rotated to a lovely picture of the top eighth of my child's head.

My mother couldn't answer her phone, when the doctor called, because her phone changed the way she answers it (????) Evidently before she had to swipe the answer button to the left and then *something* changed and now if she swipes it to the left, nothing happens. Now she has to tap it. Why?

No, Google, I wasn't trying to make an alarm for nearly three centuries from now. Got another guess?

My team hands off design requirements to developers in PowerPoint and I'm unable to get support to switch to Figma from leadership AMA

My husband has been wrestling with structural engineering software lately and challenged me to rotate this element grid using only the mouse so that the y axis pointed up.

I failed miserably. 😆🤦‍♀️🤬

I hear that on the electric F150 you have to turn on the rear camera separately (via touchscreen) from putting the truck in reverse.

Because
