Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Picture of a disassembled Duracell 9v battery. Below the terminal assembly is a clear plastic case where you can see six sets of stacked rectangular terminals and fillings.

we must be due for that to be 'retro' trendy again.

I hope so. I don't know if it would work to make a smartphone in a clear plastic case like that phone, but if someone did it, people would probably just complain because it was plastic and not metal or something.

I can't remember who did it, but there's a YouTuber who always clearifies his phones when he gets a new one by removing the back and putting a gorilla glass back on it. Haven't seen his videos in a while, I don't think, but he has several iirc.

I think "Phone Repair Guru" (or something like that) does it similarly.
