It’s brilliant in its simplicity. I’d never think of that. I’d try to overengineer something out of the environment, but with less skill than MacGyver.
I would just stand and hold it. Or see if it could reach a pocket
I would just pull out the longer cable from my backpack. Or use the power bank I have in my backpack. Or use the power bank as a pass-through to use both the cables. Or accept the fate and shutdown my primary phone partially* or completely.
*Partial shutdown means disabling certain services and features to save power without fully shutting down everything. This does usually not mean using a battery saver. I use MIUI, it is already fairly unpredictable and regular battery saver** only makes this situation worse.
**There’s also ultra battery saver which kills everything deemed unnecessary running in the background. That couldn’t be more predictable.
Airplane mode is also pretty good to save battery.
That also turns off some other stuff for whatever reason (Bluetooth, WiFi client, WiFi hotspot, Legacy WiFi direct group). I only use the hidden “Disable mobile radio power” toggle. A bit more control that way.
Disabling Bluetooth for example has the undesired effect of disabling Bluetooth Tethering which then needs to be manually re-enabled, and it’s not like Bluetooth creates noticeable battery drain. That’s kinda its point. Low energy requirements.
I wish her the very best
I’m a huge fan of creating a meme about another person, and using a drawing like this. It allows the person to remain anonymous.
Behold:
Honestly why hasn’t anyone thought of this before? It’s SO SIMPLE
Bad for the charging port. You know, that hole with 24 extremely tiny wires and pins? Once that’s damaged, you have a brick, not a phone.
This is why I believe in UK plug supremacy. Extreme support, extreme safety. Be extreme today. Convert to the UK plug
They’re talking about the USB port. Which might have been inferred from “24 pins”.
That’s make the phone pretty bulky
At first, I wasn’t sure where I was supposed to be looking. Thank you red arrow.
I can’t see any red arrows, can anyone help me with a red circle?
OK
What is this brown arrow and why does it taste like copper?
Absolutely the worst DC character
She looks happy, at least. Maybe it’s kinda meditative. You don’t want to move too much. Just sit, relax, and be a table.
That’s cool
Now that’s using yer noggin!
Is there any reason to not put the phone on the charging brick?
Being on the metro the phone
couldwill easily fall when accelerating and braking
Modern problems require modern solutions
I didn’t realize heads were a recent invention.
They aren’t new per se, but few people actually use them
Around 1789 it wasn’t as common as today.
If america didn’t have the worst plugs in the world this wouldn’t be a problem. You could just balance it on top like a well run country.
im sorry but have you seen the UK plug? Or even the broader euro plug? Or like, the aussie plug? Or like, literally any other country.
Yes.
UK plug is best in the world. Has three prongs so earth is always there. Also it pushes the protectors out if the way to open up the live socket so nothing can be incorrectly put in there. It’s solid and won’t fall out, you could hang a child off of that. Every plug has a fuse to protects the house and helps prevent fires. Live and neutral are partially covered in plastic so nothing can touch it when it is half in and the circuit is live.
EU plug is way sturdier that the shitty American’s plug. American plug looks like it is designed to fall out the EU plug stays in.
The aus plug is with weakest of the three because it is so similar to the american but at least it is tilted in a logical manner to stop a fucking plug falling out of the wall.
All three are based on a decent electrical supply so electrical items actually work
