[@CamdenBloke]

My mom used to buy me sharper image stuff for Christmas gifts after I got to my 20s and moved out. I appreciated the gesture, but sometimes I felt so bad when I saw how much some of the stuff she got me cost. One Christmas she got me this back-lit CD player/alarm clock that had a kinda interesting lid to open it, I guess it was trying to style itself after the Bang and Olufsen CD players of the time. It was OK, I used it for ambient music now and then, not particularly phenomenal, didn't trust the alarm feature because the clock was buggy. Later, I was in the Sharper Image online catalogue and saw it cost over $100. I couldn't believe that she spent that. :-( She knew that when I was a teen I always used to go into that shop and admire stuff, so, I can see why she would get me stuff from there. edit: I just found the item, it's called the Blue Night CD Stereo and was $109. You can google image search it.

I've owned one thing from The Sharper Image in my entire life. It was a Newton's Cradle, only each of the balls were a different color so it was a rainbow balls momentum thing. It was purchased for me as a gift by someone who probably realized that I wasn't straight before I came out as bi/pan. It was $59.99. It was well made, and a regular silver one that is well made will run you $40 from what I can tell...so it was kind of unique and had a 50% tax for it. Honestly...it was way better value than anything on this video, assuming you want a rainbow Newton's Cradle.

It feels like a lot of the stuff they sell are good representations of things that.. while more expensive (most of the time), also work for the intended purpose they're designed, unlike sharper images copies. The billion dollar art gallery thumbstick is a great representation of this. The thumbstick reminds me of coffee table books, but it fails in capturing the entire point of coffee table books.. coffee table books are meant to be accessible quick, and to provide something pleasing to look at for 5 minutes while you wait for something; all of the art only being accessible when plugged into a device, and the fact it's just a small slab of metal to look at defeats the coffee table books purpose.

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

I personally like the idea of a dedicated password saving device, just not _that_ one. An ideal one for me would have a larger, easier to read screen, the ability to not only save passwords but also _create_ really secure ones (something I struggle with currently) and perhaps the ability to plug in a USB stick to export them (for if the device ever breaks and I need to replace it). The problem with subscription based password managers is if you can't keep up the monthly payments, you lose access to every single account you have - not just the password manager. Plus cloudbased services I do _NOT_ trust. They _say_ they're secure and nobody in the company has access, but are they _really_ ? You have no way of actually knowing. Plus it's on a server, encrypted or not that can still be hacked, the saved files stolen and eventually cracked. Sod all that!
