I can only assume Mowgli flattened his face against a tree Tarzan-style a few times before the picture was taken.

I surmise what happened: it was just past midnight, when that route closes. They had entered that lobby just before the doors locked. But as the clock ticked past 12 it shut the lifts down. And the door. Due to this being specified wrong, the door locked both ways and they could not get out.
There was a button to connect to customer assistance, but it was on the other side of the glass doors. And, as mentioned, the phone number from a notice board didn’t work.

Mechanische Teile kosten mehr als elektronische, vor allem, weil sie eher kaputt gehen können.
Mich killt das immer, wenn ich amerikanische Herde sehe, wo die Bedienelemente hinter den Kochfeld angebracht sind. Das ist auch so eine Missachtung des Benutzers. #designfail
ENGINEERS: STOP COPYING ALL THE BAD SHITE THAT #APPLE DOES!!!
Unlike the shitty #MagicMouse it doesn't take just a few mins to charge for days of runtime and unlike the #LaggyMouse by Apple it's not some unergonomically THINN piece of glass and metal that looks like some industrial designers interpretation of #squid #sushi but the #rice is being replaced by a polished Hematite
IMHO it should be illegal to put #ports in a position where they prevent the use of a device whilst charging!
The Pizza Express box designer needs to go back to school. What kind of lunatic put cooking instructions in dark blue on a dark background. It's totally unreadable in anything but full sun light.
If your new software feature is so great, why aren't users allowed to opt out of using it?
Guessing these folks didn't test their security foil on vision impaired elderly customers before releasing it onto the population.
It seems that Wile E. Coyote is now living in New Zealand and designing road infrastructure.
I expect to see a tunnel entrance painted on the fence any day now.
If you're of a roadrunner persuasion, don't be fooled. Keep going straight.

How the hell are you supposed to thoroughly clean the inside case (keyboard & trackpad) of a modern #Mac laptop when any keypress starts up the damn computer? It won't stay shut down! Who thought this was a good idea??
Dear VeriFone et al.,
If your #touchscreen depicts a green circle next to the payment option that I want, pressing the physical key with the green circle on it should select that option. Please fire whatever psycopath made this not work.
Murderously,
Jim

Maybe some year the obvious #designfail of React Server Face...er....Components will stop being hilarious to me, but not this year.
There are still people out there studying it like it's a giant black obelisk instead of the obviously horrible syntactic hack that it transparently is. `"use client"` is *always* going to suck for real codebases without gargantuan automation and compiler/server integration...and you know who has that outside FB? Nobody. Literally nobody.
Imagine the car driver rage when they have to put up with the same shit that cyclists deal with on a regular basis.

Bit of a #designFail at #Marriott hotel in #Strasbourg. For the first few minutes I thought the carpet had major water damage. Until I realised this was someone’s artistic endeavour.
always have a colleague who's not on the project look at your work
The wet playground has ankle-deep water, except for one random spot where it's three feet deep. Ask me how we found out.
