Anything with softex plastic on it, ESPECIALLY things that generate heat or are handled regularly.
I have a box full of $750ea home automation remotes that are 100% functional but garbage because of the softex degradation. Likewise with my Microsoft laptop mouse. They even put this shit on the interior touch surfaces of some very expensive cars (Ferrari sticky buttons are an example). |

Quote HistoryQuoted: See this picture. The thing wrapped in blue cellophane is a main engine cylinder liner for the M/E of one of our newest ships. The engine room is designed so that pistons and cyl liners can be removed from the M/E and then transferred to a second gantry that will lift it out of the engine room through a vertical hatch and deliver it to the dock at either side of the ship via overhanging gantry. The problem... The designers did not factor in the overall height of the crane hardware in addition to the height of the piston or cyl liner. So once attached to the gantry it does not actually clear the deck above the engine room. So now the piston or cyl liner have to be tilted to remove, defeating the entire purpose of the "easy" removal gantry system. The kicker is that this is the third time in a row this has been discovered during the buildout process in the shipyard. The designer ignores the issue and does not revise the blueprints so the problem is just expected at this point. I watched in the shipyard as the engineers got one of the M/E pistons stuck during removal when they realized they had to tilt the piston at some 30 degrees with snatch blocks and comealongs before it could be removed by the gantry. In this pic they were lifting the cyl liner up vertically through the hatch by hand with chainfalls, because the gantry was going to be useless for getting the liner out. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/360387/20201106_154027_copy_1008x756_jpg-1682828.JPG Fucking yikes.

Microsoft Windows 10 updates. I just went through my 3rd update goat rope this year.
#1 killed the video on my PC. Blew a day trying to fix it before learning there was some related update that never installed which the new update relied on for my video card to work. #2 killed my email because MS decided they would no longer support one of their products. I hate the "new, better" MS email format. #3 killed my audio overnight. Goat rope that required getting online with Samib to figure this one out after downloading a new driver from Nvidia didn't help. I used to put up with MS glitches, but this year they have become regular occurrences and are major problems instead of annoyances. I guess the legendary MS spaghetti code for Win 10 has reached its critical tangle point and everything is going to be a major problem from now on. |

Ninety-five percent of everything made in China. They copy designs from other companies/countries than figure out how they can not only make it cheaper in material, but give it a short life - they don't want to make something that lasts the consumer 5 years, design it to break in 1.5 years and you'll buy another one. They know most people are suckers.

You need to slide out the entire sealed unit from a plastic sleeve in the fender, which has a fixed electrical connection, after accessing some incredibly difficult to reach locks and latches. And you better stand in front of it as you try, because it will fight you until the entire thing just flies out the fender and shatters on the ground. Which it will also do at the next red light if you don't ensure it is all the way in and latched when you are done. Bonus, that sleeve deforms over time and stops making the electrical connection reliably...and they want a fortune to replace it.

And perhaps it was, because it was transparent and had a unique round shape. But pretty and cool shouldn't be the top priorities for a human input device. Functional and intuitive should probably be up there, though. It was perhaps the low point of Apple design. Why? Because it was round. Whether or not you have been consciously aware of it, the oblong shape of a mouse automatically orients you to the direction it will move the cursor on the screen as soon as you grasp it. You intuitively know which way to move it to move the cursor up/down or left/right. The directions are relative to the long axis. The round shape of the iMac's mouse fucked this intuitive positioning. You'd grab it and move in one direction and the cursor would take off in a different, unexpected direction...and then you had to adjust. Or you had to feel for the wire. Or look at the fucking thing and twist it around every time you sat down. Bonus, it was far less ergonomic for resting your hand.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'll see you and raise you a Dodge Journey. Damn battery is in the damn driver side wheel well. Gotta remove the damn wheel, the damn liner, and get the battery out with stubby wrenches that spark on every damn thing in there.  Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I had to rescue my daughter from out of a gas station parking lot because the battery in her 2010 Buick Enclave finally crapped out. I jumped her off and because I didn't have any tools with me, followed her to the Autozone so she could have them change the battery out. She bought the battery, opened the hood, and the guy goes, "Where's the battery?" I look - fuse block, no battery. Turns out, the battery is in a hole in the floor of the passenger compartment behind the passenger seat. To get to it, you have to put the passenger seat all the way forward, the middle row seat all the way back, and unscrew a carpeted cover plate. The hole in the floor is just barely big enough to hold the battery, so to take the cable ends loose requires stubby little open-end wrenches and the agility of a monkey. Because the battery ends flop back in once you get the old battery out, putting the new battery in requires four hands - one to hold the positive cable out of the way, one to hold the negative cable out of the way, and two to hoist the new battery down into the hole in the floor. Once you do all that, though, the rest of it is a piece of cake. I'll see you and raise you a Dodge Journey. Damn battery is in the damn driver side wheel well. Gotta remove the damn wheel, the damn liner, and get the battery out with stubby wrenches that spark on every damn thing in there. The Pontiac Solstice has a similar location for the battery on the passenger side. Then there's the convertible top. Takes forever to put up or take down and requires you to exit the vehicle to do so. |

Quoted: When job-hunting, firms ask you to upload your resume. The good firms (one with IT guys with a brain) have the web-service/software auto-populate the address/work experience/education fields from your uploaded resume. Other places, with systems designed by monkeys, ask you to upload your resume and then want you to hand-enter all of the fields that are exactly what is contained in the resume. If you want my resume, then why in the f$^$ do I have to input all of the exact data??...and this was for IT firms. Q: "What will you do in your first year at the company?" A: "Well, I'll fix your crappy-ass system and fire the guy who designed it, and then all of the people who approved and implemented it." Even the ones that auto populate rarely do it well. You usually have to manually edit most of the fields to fix them. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Frigidaire refrigerator. I have custom cabinets in my kitchen. Frigidare was the ONLY fridge I could find that was short enough to fit in the opening. Of course, it is taller than listed on the spec sheet, so I had to cut my cabinets anyway. By then, the old fridge was gone so I just kept it rather than buying a good refigerator. Anyway, the really great design feature of a Frigidaire refrigerator is that if there is a power interruption, it emits a barely audible ding every minute to let you know that you should turn it back on. Very thoughtful of them to put some kind of warning device on there like that. Of course, every other refrigerator is the fucking universe just turns back on when there is power. This one? Nope. OFF. Off until you open the door and push the reset button for 5 or 10 seconds. Not a day goes by that I don't think someone needs to be shot, but the guy that designed that actually does need to be shot. Many times. Starting at the ankles.  I've heard of some idiotic shit, but that one has got to be infuriating. It's in the "you know what, fuck this shit, I'm leader of the free world, give the order to launch all the nukes, right now. All of them. Fuck this place." category. |

Also, also, they used a rubber seal on the blend door which deteriorates into a super sticky glue causing the control cables to break. Changing the blend door is like a 12 hour job, because THE ENTIRE DASH AND SUBSTRUCTURE HAS TO COME OUT! I have to change my vent setting by getting out of the car and shoving my hand up into the dash from the bottom. WTF, Ford?!? Couldn't help myself.
