The Pozidriv Outrage!!1

So, I’ve had these Pozidriv screws for a while, and I’ve never found a bit that actually fits them. They all seem “too pointy”.

And if you try to google this stuff, you find a gazillion pages saying “well, Philips is different from Pozidriv”. YES! I KNOW! Why isn’t there a checkbox on google that goes “no, I’m not a moron, filter out all answers to idiotic questions?”

But today I bought a new bits set, and it has several PZ2 bits.

They’re all marked S2 (which is the steel quality) and PZ2 (which is the shape).

But some of these PZ2 bits fit and some are totally wiggly! Just as wiggly as all the other PZ2 bits I have! But some fit perfectly!

And if you line then up by the widest “vane” there, you can see that the top one is like a quarter of a millimetre longer! Which explains why it’s all wobbly and unusable!

WHAT IS GOING ON ISN”T POZIDRIV A STANDARD WHAAA

Is this necessary

I mean, seriously.

Why does an NVMe to USB-C adapter need all these lights.

C’mon.

And there’s too many screws and stuff.

But at least it’s ridiculously slow. Instead of 400MB/s (which is what you’d expect), you get 60MB/s. And the enclosure gets ridiculously hot.

IcyBox gadgets, man…

The Discarding of the Screws

My screwy drawer has gotten progressively fuller over the past decade, so in a (possibly) deranged fit of spring cleaning, I’ve now cleared out the screws (and nails and stuff) that looked way too duplicated.

I’m sure I’m not going to regret this.

This comes to 3.3kg, which ChatGPT 3.2 tells me is 49.3524 pounds. (Can that be right? *does math in head* Yeah, looks accurate…)

But don’t fear for me, Internet — somehow the screwy drawer is still full of screws (and nails and stuff)! How did that happen!?

Oh well. It’s tidier and lighter now…
