Any time you see a bizarrely specific unitasker product, 90% of the time it's to recoup manufacturing costs so they can provide them to disabled people. 👍

Ultimately I tend to shy away from unitasker tools and devices in my life. I like the concept of an e-ink tablet, but an iPad Pro is just going to be so much more useful to me day to day. I guess i know what I’m looking for next iPad refresh!

I literally printed the respooler in May of this year, as one of the Useful Unitasker Tools to support my hobbies. Just even this single use - and I did use it to respool other filaments earlier when I replaced printers - means it pays for itself in terms of making filaments usable.

Rice cooker. Since it doubles as my steamer, not a unitasker, and set and forget lets me worry about everything else in the meal.

How in the fuck does it make sense to the white person's mind to assault it with all of the most vicious, spitting contempt as the most useless unitasker in the entire kitchen, then take it as a given that rice is one of the easiest things to fuck up. YOU'VE GOT A SOLUTION FOR IT RIGHT THERE

Any dish that requires a unitasker automatically loses points.
Waffle pockets, although they hold butter and syrup well, prevent the ease of full coverage of a pancake.

the retro gaming equivalent of a kitchen "unitasker": a tool that only does one thing, that ends up not doing it particularly well, and gets left in the back of a drawer forever (or languishes in a box at a random thrift store where nobody can identify what task it was even intended to do)

This is a somewhat primitive unitasker, but it's at least a step toward what I was hoping AI and automation would be used for.

I'm not going to spend that kind of cash on a unitasker (even if I was employed), but I've never successfully fried eggs, so it's a bit tempting.

Like Alton Brown says, the only unitasker in your kitchen should be the fire extinguisher. And that goes for cocks, too.

If Alton Brown would hatefully call it a "unitasker," it's either a plastic trinket on a merchandise clipstrip in the middle of a random aisle of the supermarket or a luxurious status symbol

I just imagined a pizza-sized apple slicer, except it's made to specifically accommodate 5 slices.
Alton Brown would be devastated to hear about this unitasker. 😂

And, for those in the AB camp of unitasker aversion, salad tongs are great for tossing all kinds of salad, including fruit and pasta, which are typically more delicate that leafy greens.
Caveat: DO NOT USE THESE ON A GRILL! They are often made of materials not meant to withstand that heat.

Wait until the first vindictive partner or cop finds a way to dick with the system so the car can track, surveil & gaslight at the same time. Nobody likes a unitasker!
