Only Satan would design a hole that is smaller than the end of a bent paperclip when the entire purpose of the hole is to put something into it.

I just realized that each phone comes with one and only one of SIM ejectors, and I have a lot of those in my drawer. I think I have a problem. -_-

I keep one on my keys since it's useful for pushing reset buttons and things and if I really need to it even works as a screwdriver

I have a lifehack for this:

I noticed my phone battery bulging just yesterday. So I went and dug up the documentation that came with it to see if I could take advantage of the manufacturer's warranty. No dice, but the sim card tray ejector thing was in with the user's manual. So at least I have that. :/

I'm very responsible

I have like 7 of these in a container next to me. I don't think responsible is the word that would be associated with that behaviour.

PS - paperclips work fine for this purpose.

I mean, they fit on a keychain, which is fucking great; Sadly, they stab you through the pants pocket so they're fucking rude.

I do tech support, I always have one on my keychain.

I just bought a new phone and put it next to the other four I have.

iFIXIT kits include a bit that lets you eject sim trays

i usually grab a breadboard jumper wire and shove it in my sim card slot 😂

You guys aren't just using eSIMs?

Now what is that?

I have a Moonlander split keyboard that is programmable and uses one of these little things for its reset button. My only gripe with it is that they could have designed a place for it to slot into the keyboard itself since it's very easy to lose it if it isn't otherwise attached to something.

Yay, what's my prize?

What if we're sure it's around here somewhere, just not sure where?

aka fancy paperclip

I fixit gang. If you did not know, some of the ifixit kits have a screwdriver bit that is just for that

I still have it and now phone is eSIM only. But I can’t bring myself to throw it out.

I have something like 100 of these in a draw in my home office. Along with a straightened paperclip as a backup.

I have a screwdriver bit set that just includes one of those, very tightly secured. Whoever was responsible for ensuring this was neccessary: You are a hero.

....I used mine to clean my ears.

this made me feel good about myself, thanks

I put mine on the keychain.... It's responsible for some small holes in my trousers pockets and I have been pricked too but worth it.

We have a whole keyring full of them at work

I may have found 5 in my desk drawer the other day...

Just tuck it into your phone case if you can. Easy solution to always have it when you need it.

I'm responsible for a lot of things
