Games controller is no way near as bad as TV remote, the delay alone makes it so much more frustrating
TV remote, and it doesn’t wrap around to the other side of the letter box.
And you can’t get a clear line of sight on the sensor, you you have to hold your arm up at a weird angle to input it
And the batteries are weak, so it’s only actually sending like 1/3 of the signals. Also there’s no battery cover, so they fall out sometimes.
Question: Do I have a choice on what controller I use?
For some reason, I imagined the controller scheme of a Wii and using the pointer controls to type each letter
In Hell, you pay for a subscription to use your controller.
Lol, pah-leeeze
That calendar and the fan selector are cruel and hilarious.
Them as are amused by the fan directed cursor may also enjoy Bubble Ghost, which came out on several retro platforms including the Game Boy.
Lmao, I got to hall 28, it’s a bit ASMR when the volume is down low, except for the buzzer at the end sometimes. I like having to figure out how the ghost might get it.

And the passwords are random gibberish, and every time you enter in the password the letter location scrambles.
Typing with a controller really isn’t that bad. That’s more like a purgatory thing. Hell would be having to use a television remote.
With a different on screen keyboard everytime. Some QWERTY, some A-Z. Some with with a separate section with capital letters instead of a shift button.
And there’s a lag…
Yes, changing between 1-4s
That’s the upper level. On the lower level you use a remote control, and there’s tons of input lag.
And the onscreen keyboard is in reverse alphabetic order
No, it is just endlessly looking up and trying to get a movie to play on Paramount+
Aka a TV remote
AND ghost clicks. And just enough time of input lag to make you click again, just to see the key being pressed twice, and now you have to go to the backspace button
“@” and “.” need to be accessed by a separate punctuation page.
Also the keys sometimes get stuck, and the keyboard closes without saving your input when you press up in the top row.
Oh wait, that’s just Android TV. :(
and its not the fancy bluetooth one on new TVs where you can point it anywhere, but good old infrared, aiming and all. All the while the batteries are half dead/not slotted correctly so you have to open it up and roll it around a bit to hit the g-spot so it works.
Also the passwords are in a key manager and are 30 random characters. You have to look at your phone and manually enter them one character at a time via the remote.
Hell is just real life but someone keeps eating nature valley bars in your bed.
Yes, I know it’s real because I just found Satan.
It blows my mind that in many cases I can’t use my voice to enter text in fucking 2025.
I’m pissed that it worked better in 2019 vs 2025. (At least for Google’s voice recognition)
I’m even more pissed that my old Motorola flip phone could dial by voice on the device, but my current pocket supercomputer running the latest Android can’t do it without recording my audio and sending it to a server somewhere to be processed in the “cloud,” and doesn’t even work if I’m standing somewhere with spotty data service.
Honestly, I kind of want the old assistant back. I don’t find Gemini any more useful for my use cases. It feels dumber sometimes.
as someone with an accent, may I beat you up with a 1997 modem for asking for more voice input?
those things are a nightmare.

sport competition idea.
we randomly choose a bad text input method, see who can type the fastest, 3 errors and you’re eliminated.
T9 keyboard, game controller, remote control, VR point and shoot…
T9 doesn’t belong there. You need practice to be good with it but it can be pretty fast.
Digital Stockholm syndrome.
As someone who grew up inputing passwords in Mega Drive games with one: there are worst things.
