Impatience wrought in stainless steel

quick time event for introverts

@pluralistic I wonder why only one of the "locks" is labelled. What happens if you use the other lock? Why would you put two near identical and important interaction points next to each other with only a tiny text label to differentiate them?

@pluralistic

I like when you can see on things that they are used for long time.
Always been fascinated by (for example) rock stairs to churches that are worn out by a lot of people walking each weekend to ceremony.
It's like "each of us leaves records in world we're not even aware of".

@LonM

The second one is "secret" one that brings you to Man in black headquarters.
And now that you know that information, could you please look at this flash for a second?

@pluralistic [insert immigration policy metaphor here]

@pluralistic My favorite factoid is that those buttons are generally not even wired to anything, or if they are, they don't function unless the fire dept key is turned.

@pluralistic Pretty sure that button is plastic, not steel.

Zombies coming! Zombies coming! Press press press press press

@mdc @pluralistic could very well be that the button isn't even wired to anything

@pluralistic Interesting skeuomorphic design in the symbol here, which imitates stencil forms, even though it's clearly moulded.
