Why are there usb ports on the microwave?

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

@futurebird all the extra ones taken off macbooks had to go somewhere.

@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)

25-pin cereal ports stay crunchy in milk.

@maypop_neocities @a2_4am @futurebird Why, the Milky Way, of course ...

@futurebird For downloading evidence packs should the resultant food require launch of formal legal proceedings.

The second port provides additional capacity to cover the risk of physical and emotional harm inherent in certain British recipes (typically ones involving tripe)
