Sins in technology

Axypha

We all probably know that Linus calls a short backspace a sin. What do you guys think is a sin in technology?

 

Personally, I think that Brown motherboards that are supposed to be Black are MAJOR sins, and whoever invented them should be burned alive.

To add onto what @Wikiforce wrote I'd say when the product doesn't meet to the advertised function & application of work

Please become a member of the Linus Tech Tips forum, keep writing smug remarks & let us love you. Peace out.

The price of everything. Also anything nVidia.

There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Keyboards that are advertised as "gaming keyboards" because they took a $10 dollar keyboard and changed the color of the WASD keys.

CPU fan headers located directly beside cpu socket

1000w power supply in a system that barely draws 350 watts at absolute max load

2 pin casefans.

The fact that you can't use internal storage from android by default for /system. It's not like google using fucking hunderts of mb's while internal is bigger and almost empty.

USB 3.0 front header.

Windows 8.1

Bye LTT. That was an interesting journey on this board. At least here you see how not to do it. I'll go shaking my head about this place.
