@futurebird@sauropods.win this is a high security model, it requires two YubiKeys to start

@futurebird "Why are there usb ports on the microwave?"

Because if they placed the ports *in* the microwave, you couldn't use them while the microwave was running.

@futurebird Nice! I had a couple boxes full of broken electronics for scavenging that I finally mostly recycled last time I moved. Got some ports and speakers and things off of them over the years, but I don't hardware well enough for that shit. I can barely solder a couple connectors to an arduino without fucking *something* up, and getting terribly frustrated, and putting the project on the shelf for months or years...

I prefer software. Desoldering is a damn nightmare. The delete key is so much easier

@futurebird on the back is a USB-B port so you can connect your computer because it's a USB hub and microwave combo

@futurebird @StealthyTango Did you try luring it out with a frozen Hot Pocket?

@fp32 @futurebird I hate that I understand this reference.

@futurebird
it gives your phone a boost for long distance calls

@futurebird for when the lightbulb breaks, so that you don’t need to find a matching replacement; you put the led light in but you obviously get one with a flat cable so you can push the door closed over it (neither the port nor the plug can be inside since they have metal parts)
