Like I can see the trash can and paper towel dispenser being useful, especially for someone with disabilities(spoons mean being able to just lift the lid and it's ready to take out would be a godsend), but the cost is insane.

At least our spiders just scare us, and don't have the chance to potentially sting us! Horrifying. (Context: we live very close to a little tiny forest and a lake, so we often get massive spiders sneaking into our home. Especially into our sitting room on the ground-level facing the farming fields. They're absolutely massive beasts, those that get inside.)

first thing that comes to mind for a lot of the automated products is how nice it would be for someone with disabilities. i find myself struggling with small mundane tasks that a lot of people wouldnt give a second thought, and something like the trash can would be so nice where i dont have to hurt my hands and arms trying to replace the bag. idk, not always for lazy people. love the video!

@Bunnyliver52 11 дней назад

If you’re wondering why something super automated could be useful the answer is often disabled people! Trash can that ties off the bag and has tiny bags that won’t get super heavy? So useful for many disabilities. Sadly also often extremely unaffordable though.

@Sevicify 11 дней назад

Same applies to those weird and seemingly useless kitchen gadgets, many are likely designed for disabilities but to make it profitable they market towards general consumers and avoid the stigma of being for disabled persons.

@@anisvadjian5142 my grandma was disabled very young. And I was a teacher's aid for "special ed" when in 8th grade. So I've been aware long before I was disabled. But, yes, many don't think about it. It's easy to ignore or blame disability on something the other person did. At least that I often see. I'm neurodivergent too, but late finding out. I'm not sure if that made me more self aware or not. My biggest hurdle wasn't accepting I was disabled, but accepting help. I really hope you are doing well for yourself even with your limitations!

while these use cases are great, i still gotta question the astronomical prices tho. these aren't state-of-the-art prosthetics which a disabled person will use for life and grant them a level of mobility or dexterity that would be life-changing... these are still mostly minor conveniences that have more value for disabled folks. the question becomes... is the value of that shift from minor to major convenience worth a 1,000% markup? and when does it become exploitation of disabled folks? (probably if it is only marketed to them i guess)

We have the medium version of the hair scraper, it's an absolute lifesaver! You have to be careful what materials you use it on, but we use it religiously because we have 3 pets who shed A LOT.

@@ChibiChula can you fill a whole trashbin in a day with these types of products? Otherwise you gonna waste a lot of (probably expensive) plastic bags. An airtight diaper bin is just the better solution.

I have one of the early models of the Uproot Clean. It has a wooden handle, and it was before the mini and the broom variations came out. It works wonderfully for cleaning up husky hair that the vacuum misses

@jamesscarr5819 11 дней назад

the automation of things that don't usually need to be automated really is a good thing, the more people who make and use these things, the easier it is to get them as a disabled person (medical supply companies are able to charge way more for specially designed accessibility products because its a niche market)

@Congiary 11 дней назад

Agreed for sure. I immediately see an accessibility market for the measuring tape and trash can.

@SailorMusicCat 11 дней назад

The trash can and paper towel dispenser are both things I could see myself, my mom, or my roomie using if it wasn't so expensive. Just easy spoon savers alongside the potential ways it can help someone with physical disabilities.

I’m over 50 now and that tape measure reader is looking very tempting! Even with glasses I can’t always read the numbers if it’s a little dark or in a tricky spot.

@grimmsfairytales2224 10 дней назад

The tape measure would be amazing if it was priced more affordably. My grandpa is an amazing carpenter but the small markings on a tape measure give him a hard time now. So it would be great for people who have visual imparments but the price is hard to justify

@jennifers795 10 дней назад

Agree 100% there are also talking measuring tapes that are over $100. Can't remember the price exactly and I know they are not as accurate as this one. I wonder if the app is accessible with voiceover?

@crystalpeacebear1985 9 дней назад

Honestly I want one for my work. We measure material often and need the visual fraction options often for certain people but we can't see spending that price

@DingDingTheYoutubeBuddy 8 дней назад

the issue with it is the markings thay make it work will wear off very fast or get covered in mud on any jobsite in seconds, so its not great for professionals or people who will use it a lot

I LOVE the lint removers I have like 4 of the middle sized ones. The reason there are two sizes is for what fabric length you are dealing with. Generally if it’s catching, flip it over to the shorter side. 🐈‍⬛🐕

I want that digital measuring tape. Not a contractor but I do a lot of DIY Home reno stuff and 40 second adds up. When cutting tiles for example i often had to measure it several times since the walls and floor aren't completely square or level. Over the course of a day that 40 seconds is easily a half hour of my day.

@SHARKBlTEZ 10 дней назад

To be honest, the digital read out measuring tape is great for people like me that have difficulty processing measuring considering I process differently due to my autism, plus my boyfriend is visually impaired. We plan to do crafts but things that seem “lazy” are usually just meant for people like us or old people. lol. So I’m noting that one down personally for us. Wish y’all the best!

You get used to it lol I too live in Texas, and we don’t have scorpions right here, but we’ve had wasps get in the house. I had nine wasps crawl through my house ventilation into my bathroom fan, I had to spray them with wasp killer and shut the doors so they died before they could get out. I’ve also had a paper wasp land right next to me on the arm of a rocking chair in my living room once, that was fun

@zeldakasumi 11 дней назад

Tip for catching scorpions: They cannot see clear glass, so put a large/tall drinking glass over them. Then slide some cardstock/paperboard underneath. If you tap them from behind with the wall of the glass, they will run forward onto the paperboard. Then you can move them glass and all. I typically flip the glass right side up and give the paperboard a tap. They will then fall to the bottom of the glass and won't be able to climb up the glass wall. This makes for safest transportation. I get Arizona Bark scorpions in my home every summer, so this method helps me a lot. P.S. Mosquitoes also cannot see clear glass, so this method works well for catching them as well when they are lurking on your bathroom wall. With your hand at a distance because you are holding the end of the glass, they will not fly away. You can also use something flimsier like a paper towel instead of paperboard for them.
