    USB plug -in desk fan that plugs into my laptop that I got on Amazon for $10. Carry it everywhere with me.

    I bought a nice pair of fingernail clippers. ~$15 Green Bell from Japan. You hardly have to apply any force to the lever at all, and the nail just slices off neatly and falls inside. Not like my old cheapo pair that went “KACHONK” and endangered anyone in my vicinity of shrapnel injuries.

      I have one of those Japanese nail clippers. I’m wondering how they make it cut so softly. Like even if it didn’t eat the nails they wouldn’t launch. Best clippers ever, even if it’s harder to get the edges.

    I keep an extremely small 64GB USB-A/USB-C flash drive on my Keychain so I can move files between phones, phone to computer, or load movies and TV shows from a computer or phone and plug into a TV to play.

    It’s only $10 and sometimes it’s very convenient to always have on hand the ability to move files around without the use of a network or the cloud or whatever. The size of it is extremely small.

      So simple to siphon off stuff from the phone like photos to back up! And load it full with films.

      It’s crazy how everything is so locked in.

        Why I’m holding onto my note 20 ultra for the foreseeable future as well. Last samsung flagship with an SD card slot. It holds all my pictures, videos, and TV shows and movies on that little card.

    Thinkpad T440p docking station, I get everything these days is USB C but I love having a docking station thats sturdy and has tons of ports vs a dongle that hangs off the side of my laptop and has maybe six ports.

    Little remote ring for my phone. I can change the music/volume during my walks without having to dig my phone out of my pocket/etc. I also use it when gaming to change songs without having to put down the controller, same when I’m knitting.

    Bought a Rovyvon keychain flashlight I believe was around $20 that’s amazing. It’s Iike 650 lumens or something and it’s tiny so I just have it on my keychain and turn it on at night if I need it in a jiffy.

    Love is a bit of an overstatement, but I got a cheap Walmart brand USB hub for my laptop since it only has a single USB male (female?) port and I needed more for my mouse and thumb drives. Definitely worth it to ensure I could save work to my thumb drive at college.

      Male: with connector outside (like penis)

      Female: with connector inside (like vagina)

      Terms arose before trans people got so visible, so there’s that.

    I like to do photography and timelapse videos, so my favorite gadget is a collapsible tripod I can use with my phone. It doubles as a selfie stick and includes a carrying bag and an optional bluetooth remote.

    Mantric Rechargeable Remote Control Knicker Vibrator I got on sale for 50% off. I’m not super into the whole public thing, but I’ve been using it way more than my magic wand, that fucking tip is shaped perfectly. Plus it would make an excellent phaser prop.
