I stick them in a cork board.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 32 minutes ago

I have more than one. The key is the word somewhere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

I bought a multi tool that has one of these built in.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

I can confirm that this is false

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

on my keychain with a set of handcuff keys and some earplugs lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

You sound fun.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

I have the ifixit screwdriver kit and one of the bits is a Sim card ejector. Does it count ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago

I have a small zip bag of 100+ of these in a drawer. Sometimes you gotta pop out a SIM card. Other times you gotta hit a pinhole reset button to fix a rogue router. In a pinch, they're also a good shiv or shank.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I have mine under my phone cover. Got sick of losing them all the time when I needed one. Since I put it under the cover, I've only needed it about two times. (Under my cover for over a year).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 hours ago

You only need it when setting up a new phone. So once you put the card in, you put the tool back in the phone’s box and just stick that in a closet.

So I’m asking… how CAN you even misplace one of those?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Like seven a drawer somewhere. I don't know where though

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

I have three downstairs in the garage, now the real question is... Where in the garage tho.

chaotic neutral?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 hours ago

I still have like eight of those. I bought some smart devices a while ago that all had them for the reset hole, so I’m stocked up for life.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

Why thank you.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

Ive always just used a hair pick when I cant find it 😂

I still have my Oneplus 3 box with all the things it came with. I switched to Pixel 6A last year, because my mom dropped it and screen broke.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 hours ago

I'm sure I have it in a box somewhere, but paperclips open up SIM slots just as well as SIM tools do.

Yep its not hard to keep around. How are people losing em just put it in the right place after you’re done using it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

Attached it to the pen drive as a key tag

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

As foretold 🙏

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

Taped mine to the back of my phone, hidden by the case.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 hours ago

it's within my phone's protection case, so i do have it right now. Also, anecdote, a random stranger on a bus was switching sim cards, and asked me if I have the tool, which I indeed I had!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

I feel like everyone’s missing the joke here. That’s not the normal sim pen ejector tool. That’s the liquid metal one that they only made for like a year or two

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 hours ago

Laughs in paper clip

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

A bunch, but the cherry is taken by a dedicated SIM ejection tool bit in my IFixIt kit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

I sequestered mine in a box of tarot cards so I couldn't lose it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

I've got plenty!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

what is it?? never seen in my life

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

it's that little thingy that comes with new phones that opens the SIM card slot

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

What are they called?

Sounds like a good way to stab yourself in the balls.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago

Im always looking for new opportunities

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

I pinned one to my wall in my bedroom just in case

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I still have my first smartphone. It's from 2011 and the screen is undamaged.

I also still have the extra plugs for the in-ear headphones that came with it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago

ok sorry, right this way sir ==>

[–] [email protected] 73 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I just put it back in the box when I'm done

I have a stack of boxes in the closet, because I might need them someday

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I never throw out boxes, because I know as soon as I'm unable to get it back I'll need it for something.

I have the round bit in my screwdriver set, the pointy bit broke off so I also now have a bent paperclip in there too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

I have several, all in a big keyring. I used one of them once. So I keep them. One never knows.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 hours ago

I think I lost it within seconds of turning my phone on for the first time lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I had one of these hanging out in my bathroom for forever. The little fucker wouldn't just go away.
