      At this point I realize I’ve most likely ever only come across the mispronounced version…

    If i had known about all the bloatware samsung shoves into their phones before i got one, it woulda never left the shelf. There are about 5 junk apps in my play store queue right now and was able to uninstall another 4 so they dont show up in the list, but its massively inconvenient to have to do that to begin with. Would rather be allowed to opt out of the stuff out of the box.

    I had a Casio remote control watch that I was actually using all the time in my room. I used it in an evil way only once, since the TV sales guy was showing off how loud the super high-end TV is. As he turned the volume up with a maniacal smile, I just pressed OFF button. New money couple lost interest immediately.

    It is Casio CMD-40 for the interested.

      During the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show, an individual associated with Gizmodo brought a TV-B-Gone remote control and shut off many display monitors at booths and during demos affecting several companies. These actions caused the individual to be banned for life from future CES events.

    I used to want one of these IR blaster things to kill tvs in waiting rooms, but then earbuds got better and cheaper and more generally useful.

      I miss that and the head phone jack. Oh and replaceable batteries! Popping a new battery you have pre charged was so convenient.
