Pointless product.Use your brain and don’t be so absent minded.
my thoughts exactly.
when I was 6yr old I lost keys like crazy in ‘80-81 probably 6-8 in a span of 5mths.
pops was super upset and worried my mom cause of a) the danger I’d be alone for hours in the hall or the park waiting for them to come home, b) the potential of mischievous tings I’d get into and c) the neighborhood embarrassment towards them of either a/b being publicly known.
the solution - adapt. Force me to learn not to use keys by having no keys, having Jamaican dimes to make calls at pay phone to coordinate after school program endings to wait for 15mins until my mom would arrive at the school.
it worked. The bonus was realizing that not only did Jamaican dimes worked at the Bell pay phones, they worked at the video arcade (took them 6mths to narrow down how much they lost on 50cent games or token exchange machines lol). Also benefit in transit coin deposit because driver never paid attention - a weeks worth was snack food for lunch
Another bonus was keeping the laundry change of quarters that was my chore for the family laundry at 11yr old - gave me LOTS of pocket money for Xmas presents lunch money and a toy here and there LMAO. yes pops created a lil monster and although the laundry change brought a bit of public non approval of bldg neighbours he did actually think it was a very sneaky and smart idea.
moral. Don’t rely on technology to remember things - use your brain and get savvy to advance the sue of technology toy your benefit.
to quote a book in the upcoming movie remake this winter “though shalt not create a machine in the likeness of the human mind” - dune.
