My oven has capacitive touch buttons for the clock and timer. They’re really sensitive, and they sometimes trigger even for skin underneath clothing. So sometines when I lean against it while using the stove top, I accidentally set a timer with my penis.
I hate it with a passion when my phone wakes up the screen and starts pressing random buttons on the media player on hot summer days when I start sweating. I have to turn the phone around in my pocket but I’m always conscious about bumping into anything destroying the screen
The button on my mouse that changes the sensitivity. It’s right on top between the left and right buttons, so it happens quite frequently. Maybe I should finally figure out if I can disable it in settings somewhere, but then I’ll need to change sensitivity for some reason.
Also, when I swipe back on Android and it takes me to the home screen, closing the app. When I swipe back on purpose I don’t even want to go back to the home screen, usually just the top of the app, or clear route etc. from Google Maps, but it’s even worse when I accidentally swipe. Whoever made that design choice deserves a kick in the groin. That is like the most single annoying thing about Android I can think of.
I cant remember if it’s Facebook messenger or WhatsApp as I don’t use either that often, but one of them has a button on the keyboard to send like animated images or something and it’s so easy to hit that button and then select an image but the problem is that it doesn’t add it to a message which you then have to send, it just sends it straight away. I’ve sent some really inappropriate things to people I hardly know as a result, and I don’t feel like the attempt at an explanation helps.
It’s an ESC key for me personally. Some of my friends with the fancy schmancy keyboards have it so that holding that button down gives their keyboard an additional layer. Like, holding that down will make J/K/L/I work as arrow keys, something like that.
For work i have to compress files together for submissions and on Mac the compress option is right above the duplicate option, not all the time but enough times to piss me off I end up duplicating the files instead of compressing them.
oh man this actually pisses me of so much. I’ve been using the swiftkey keyboard long before it was bought by Microsoft, back when it was a paid app, and I swear it has gotten significantly worse at word prediction , key detection, and swipe accuracy.
I’m finding that I have to type letter by letter if I want any kind of garuntee that it will choose the right words. Swipe has become a waste of time because I am constantly going back to fix words it got wrong. And B instead of space is a constant!
For me it’s the period next to the spacebar. I think my right thumb comes down at just the wrong angle to touch both at the same time. One of these days maybe I’ll wise up and change the layout… but not today.
