Ask Lemmy

Mashing machine. BEEP BEEP BEEP shut the fuck up bro

My oven is a piece of shit that has unreliable temperature control and manages to have hot spots even with the fan on. I bought it new and I don't think it will die any time soon. Joke is I paid a lot more than for my previous oven and it's the worst piece of shit I've ever had, a miniature countertop oven I had way back that was old as balls gave more consistent results.

The ice compartment of our fridge. It's always a fucking compressed block that needs manually smashing up. I fucking hate it so much.

Coffee dispenser at work. It acts up like it's a printer. Replace left cartridge. Replace right cartridge. Cleaning required. Thorough cleaning required. Unknown leak. Heating water please wait. Unknown error. Fuck that, I'll piss in a cup myself if I don't get my coffee now.

Then there's also the towel roll thing in the toilets. I swear it's stuck for longer time than it's functioning. It'd be a full time job keeping that rolling throughout the day

My apartment gym has a Nordictrack treadmill that I hate nearly every aspect of. First of all, it requires you login to use any of the programs, which doesn't really work with 200 potential users. It has lost internet every single time I've used it and needs a restart, even though I use manual mode, the UI buttons are tiny and impossible to read while you're running, and don't respond correctly, and worst of all, there's no goddamn place to put your phone so you can watch Netflix.

Samsung Fridge (don't judge me, it came with the house).

I knew it was a "when" and not and "if" it would start having issues, and it finally showed its colors last month.

Front panel buttons either refused to work at all or would cycle through every option continuously and randomly.

Want water? Sorry, only crushed ice today. Want ice? Sorry, just water today. Oh, I actually did want water (starts dispensing). PSYCH! Now I'm going to shoot ice at you and splash water everywhere.

Was about to just toss the thing and get something dumber and more reliable, but decided to roll the dice with a replacement control board from ebay. Thankfully, that worked and I'm only out $80.

Everything with a built in lithium battery that isn't easy to swap. Phones, headphones, vapes, the weird gameboy thing I got offa aliexpress.

My crappy electric Philips toothbrush from the internet of shit era. If you press the single button it has slightly wrong it goes into some Bluetooth pairing mode or whatever that you can't take it out of until it gives up 2 minutes later.

Firewalls in general.

Anything made by Samsung.

1. My docking station. The screen sometimes goes black for a second or two randomly. I have had this problem with all kinds of docking stations.

2. My egpu dock. It works great but I have to plug it in after boot or it won't be detected.

3. My samsung galaxy S22 (my last sasmung phone). The camera sometimes doesn't work presumably because a ribbon cable inside is loose.

Danalock smart locks. They are garbage locks by a garbage company and everything surrounding it is pure trash.

The fridge. If you close it too hard or too soft, it ends up not closed, but a fingers' width open.

Printer

Only 2D since bambulab came

I'm about to smash my goddamn phone. i can buy the best phone with all of my money and it still sucks ass
