Everything in Every App

Poly Lens

This is a real screenshot of an app that starts automatically on my work laptop at login. It’s part of a driver for Polycom headsets. I don’t have a headset plugged in, because my kid’s pet rabbit chewed through the cord too close to the ear cup, and I couldn’t fix it. Regardless, this is still running, popping up like it’s important, and has such necessary and tightly-coupled-with-headset activities as showing me “insights” on my computer’s “connectivity,” reminding me to hydrate and rest, and teaching me about ergonomics. Thank goodness my (former) headset manufacturer is looking out for me like this. I don’t know what I would have done otherwise. I might have gone all day without drinking a glass of water or something.
