"Walking to a car with a coffee on a dark morning, or taking a mug of tea to your shed at the end of your garden for an evening's tinkering... the elegance is that both the cup and the torch return to the house.  It's not for everybody, but it conveniently frees up a hand for those whose regular routine sees them carry a drink in the dark.  (Though you could just double wrap the strap of a head torch around any mug or cup)"

"Any clue as to how they cut the string?  I thought there might be covered sharp edge integrated into the cage, but I couldn't see one. "

"Have you any sources for your assertion that electric trucks will never have any practical use?  And are you aware that Volvo has already sold 5,000 electric trucks?  https://www.autoweek.com/news/green-cars/a43917840/volvo-electric-truck-lineup/"

"*concerning that Tek Pegs don't state what plastic they are made from. If they have addressed the Ultra Violet issue, please correct me (and update the article).  "

"The plastic clothes pegs that fail me do so because of UV damage. It is concerning that these Tek Pegs don't state what plastic they sSolution is simple: use stainless steel clothes pegs - though I have to order them online since I've never seen any in shops. "

"I agree, a Ferrari logo is usually slapped on a t shirt or keyring... I really don't get why these watchmakers, having a genuine 'world's thinnest' claim, felt the need for a another company's logo.  If I were to ever own a Ferrari car, I would never wear any Ferrari branded clothing or accessories... It would just be too guache! "

"It'd be interesting to read an expert's notes on what changes to this concept vehicle would be required to make it road legal. The lack of head rests on the seats jumps out at me as an example of the 'poetic licence' granted to concept cars."

" "...complicated issues must be oversimplified into short bursts, and those grossly oversimplified summations are then accepted as the full reality" Er yeah, okay. In reality, user-actionable information should very often be concise. Your bus departs in 17 minutes. Walk in THIS direction to the bus station. I don't want or need a video of the bus, or a twenty page pdf about the history of the bus company. "

"Knobs and sliders are all well and good, but they can be prone to dust ingress. This model claims an IPX 4 rating, 'water splashes from any direction'. I'm assuming that it's sliders aren't actually variable resistors, so it'll be immune from the crackle that 1980s boomboxes could exhibit when adjusting the EQ. My friend's Tivoli speaker required some attention after dust got into its top-mounted knob (potentiometer), but some IPA made it happy again. "

"Microsoft's response to the same needs was released in 2018, inspired by controllers that had been modified by the community groups. Ben Heck, who has been featured on Core77, created a one-handed game controller in 2010. https://designawards.core77.com/consumer-technology/85134/Xbox-Adaptive-Controller Microsoft partnered with not for proft groups. "

"Can all design blogs and students kindly abide by a moratorium on mentioning hubless wheels until such a time as an array of engineering tests deem them practical?   Thank you"

"If you're going to have a penknife attached to your keyring then a quick release mechanism (and a quick re-attachment mechanism) is invaluable if you want to actually use the knife without a fist full of keys. A fist full of keys doesn't offer the best ergonomics, and you risk losing them too.  Why the amusement? Is it another failure of that imagination that a designer must cultivate if they are to serve the needs of users other than themselves? "
