Yep! I have a normal phone number and get unlimited voice and sms, and 5g data metered data at $10/GB. They have an unlimited plan too, but metered works best for me. It’s actually serviced by ATT and Verizon IIRC, so you connect to whichever is best.
These little ejector tools are useful for more than just SIM cards. CD/DVD ROM drives have force eject buttons inside tiny little holes that these can reach and push. Many hardware reset buttons are also hidden inside tiny holes.
You could use an unfolded paperclip in a pinch. One of my air purifiers has a reset button inside a hole that is slightly too thin for the paper lips I have on hand. But the SIM ejector tool I keep around fits perfectly.
Same. I have tow phones, one personal and one business. Kept it in my personal one, between phone and case. You never know when you or someone else might need it.
Tool cabinets are a marvelous thing. I have a little thing squirreled away in a drawer of other tools, just the top of a box that a screen protector came in, that is just full of tiny specialized precision tools that I very seldom need.
How often do you use them? I now throw away almost every extra piece of anything and for the past 8 years or so I haven’t really regretted it and important stuff is easier to find without all the junk noise.
I have a Moonlander split keyboard that is programmable and uses one of these little things for its reset button. My only gripe with it is that they could have designed a place for it to slot into the keyboard itself since it’s very easy to lose it if it isn’t otherwise attached to something.
The reset button is used to apply firmware changes. For this keyboard you can customize the keys to pretty much however you like. I have one of the thumb cluster buttons set to Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V for efficiency. It’s great for making changes to personalize your mechanical keyboard experience… but it requires that pin to make changes lol.
I like it since I can assign Enter to one of the left thumb cluster buttons, you normally can’t hit enter with your left hand on a standard keyboard layout.
