The thing I hate more than cords is configuring cordless things. Cords work.

The fix is sometimes to just buy better cordless things. I stopped hating wireless the day I stopped buying Best Buy own-brand $20 wifi dongles. And now the quality floor is even lower, thanks to Amazon and Ali Express and so on – it’s even easier to buy maddeningly awful cordless gear!

I can go though a cord in a weekend, if the fire is big enough. Love em!

Always seemed environmentally suspect to me, but I suppose it’s trivial in the scheme of things.

D’accord!
