We have a whole keyring full of them at work

disorganized paperclip gang sound off!

[–] Phen 6 points 2 years ago

I have plenty around the house. When I needed it, I still had to find something else to use because I had no idea where this was.

[–] Chev@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I keep mine in my phone case.

There's always the trusty toothpick

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

What kind of toothpick are you using? Most I have seen are way to fat or are to flexible.

Paper clip is better, these things are very flimsy, but also phones and Tablets don't always come with them.

This is why us millennials keep our phone boxes

[–] cmhe@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I am not responsible for most of the random stuff I own, but at least for that thing I found a good place. I keep it between the back of my phone and my phone case. I have to remove the case anyway to access the slot, and then it is just right there available.

I've always just kept it in my case, against the back of my phone.

I have many of them. At least 4.

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Mine are all still in their boxes which I still save for no reason as I never ever will use them. Whenever I need a pin, I can't find a single box, but the boxes are always in the way when I try to find something else. It's a weird world we live in.

Wallet, coin part with a zip to keep it safe. It sits next to a random quarter i was given as change (im from the uk and it was given in place of a similar looking uk coin) a silver 1 pence coin (apparently they are rare and worth about £60 but as if my lazy arse is gon a sell it (and who actually buys these things anyway?) Some guitar picks and a franc (defunct french currency)

I got a Sony Xperia III last month. You can use a fingernail with it since the tray also holds your SD card

[–] HurlingDurling@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

I have at least 6 in my office right now, and another 2 or 3 around my house, and one in my truck...

I will not be taking any questions at this point.

Clip gang unite!

I store mine between my phone and phone case.

All that weight you need to carry over time

[–] Squid@lemmings.world 5 points 2 years ago

I never kept mine and used a needle instead

Ifixit screwdrivers come with a bit for that.

[–] Ozymati@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 years ago

I have two of those. One's from my old phone.

I scotch-taped it on my desk, I'm looking at it right now...

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I keep mine in the same container with all my electronics screwdriver bits, seems like the sensible place for it to be
