minus-squareneidu3@sh.itjust.worksOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year agoExactly the opposite. Philips screws are no longer patented.

minus-squareLorem Ipsum dolor sit amet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoPozidrive and Philips are equally shit, and don’t forget that there are slotted screws as well. (Torx FTW)
