       Ok what ticks me off about even great chargers when they come in this form, where the plug leads fold up into the rectangle box for traveling. A very nice feature but its always a pivot parallel to the longer side even though they could fit across the short side if turned 90 degrees.So when you plug 'em into a power strip they block 2 adjacent sockets b/c the long side is parallel w/the strip, not across it. Every single 1 w/a fold up plug.@phoneboy

       @phoneboy@lotuseffect.social @klaatu@noauthority.social how about the power strip outlets are to close together 🤔

       @cbrooklyn112 @phoneboy the power strips came 1st. I'm not talking about antique, heave transformer based wall warts that are much larger. I mean little transformerless  120VAC to USB 5VDC boxes that are just slightly wider than a socket, and only in one dimension, which they decide to orient in parallel with the strip when a simple rotation would fix things, because they're lazy ass "engineers". Probably British or Chinese & never seen a US power strip before.

       You’d think they’d redesign US power strips to accommodate those. 🤪@klaatu @cbrooklyn112

       @mhjohnsonOr use 1ft extension cords to build your own. Highly recommend, I used 1ft cables to hook my PC and peripherals to my UPS. @ryan @phoneboy @cbrooklyn112 @klaatu
