Minor everyday inconveniences plague us all. We've put a man on the Moon and managed to do surgery on a grape, yet we still can't figure out how to make dialogues in movies louder than the background music? And don't even get me started on TV remotes. Why don't they have the "Find Me" function built in?

One Redditor probably had some similar gripes with everyday small things. They decided to ask other netizens "What's a small, everyday inconvenience that you believe should have been solved by now?" People had many qualms, from poor audio quality in drive-thrus to the never-ending mystery of bacon packaging.

Bored Panda also briefly chatted with the Redditor who asked this question. Check out our conversation with u/kabkar1234 below!

Ah yes, the old "turn up the volume to hear what they say, and then have your ears blown off at the next action scene."

The author of this thread told Bored Panda that a common daily inconvenience prompted them to ask other Redditors what they find annoying. "My wife and I started talking about finding [the] remote all the time," u/kabkar1234 says. "[We] got talking about how small things like these are still [un]resolved with all the advancement in the world. I thought of asking the public."

The Redditor says that they found lots of answers relatable. Some of them included automated customer care asking to repeat information when a live person comes, why we still don't have zip lock bags for cereal, universal medical records, and, of course, finding the remote. The user says these are probably pretty universal things, "an inconvenience for many."

And often the options they give don't match up with what you actually want to ask about. So you have to select something that you know is incorrect, and hope that the company will transfer you to the correct department.

So, let's delve into some of these problems, shall we? First, the issue of background music being louder than the voices on TV. According to PBS, it's not your TV's fault. Usually, there is a problem with the production of the television show or movie.

They do have some tips on how you can try to solve the problem and lessen the irritation. "Try switching from stereo to mono whenever there is such a problem, or switch off the 'surround sound' or 'enhanced' feature on your television."

Other people in the thread expressed similar exasperation with their TVs when certain scenes seemed too dark. Remember people's reactions to that GoT The Long Night episode? Well, the cinematographer of the show cleared himself of all guilt when he told Wired UK that it's not the show, it's your TV settings.

"A lot of the problem is that a lot of people don't know how to tune their TVs properly," cinematographer Fabian Wagner explained. "A lot of people also unfortunately watch it on small iPads, which in no way can do justice to a show like that anyway."

The Verge's TV expert Chris Welch said there are several more factors why a show might be too dark on your TV. Specifically for GoT, it might have been HBO's compression of the episode. The network may have chosen a lower bitrate "to help smooth over the streaming process for millions of viewers with varying connection speeds."

Then there are the more simple reasons like the brightness and picture mode settings on your TV. The way your room is lit up can influence the viewing experience, too. If there are nearby lighting sources on the screen, they might reflect on the screen and make it harder to focus.

Another minor problem that people seemed to agree with was how almost every website nowadays annoys us with their "Accept Cookies'' pop-ups. What's even more infuriating is that experts say these pop-ups, meant to simplify data protection, actually just make people's lives harder.

"Cookie consent banners are a joke," co-founder and CEO at software development firm PrivacyCloud Sergio Maldonado told Wired UK. "Rather than helping people protect their future choices, cookie consent requirements are extremely annoying and often run counter to accessibility guidelines on mobile devices, making life harder for people with all sorts of disabilities."

It's ironic to me that something as tiny as a tag can cause such misery. And you often don't notice it until you're out and about and there's not much chance of fixing it without shredding your clothes. I admit that I then sometimes gets over-enthusiastic about removing the tag. I always have my sewing kit near at hand on the good chance that I'll "negatively impact" the seam.

So, what can you do to make your life a little bit easier? There are browser extensions that automatically fill in your preferences when a popup appears. Some of the more well-known include Consent-O-Matic, Consent Manager, and NinjaCookie. The latter two automatically decline all cookies by default. 

The most popular extension is ‘I don't care about cookies,’ and it differs from the others in that it only gets rid of the cookies. The other three extensions mentioned take extra measures to ensure privacy by not collecting user data. The "I don't care about cookies" creators presume that "users protect themselves by using other tools, extensions, and browser settings."

The government knows how much I owe, why don’t they just take out the correct amount automatically. Noooo instead it’s either I give the government an interest free loan, owe more money (which always feels bad), pay an agency to file my own taxes, and then if I get it wrong they tell me SO THEY KNEW THE AMOUNT THE WHOLE TIME.
I feel a tirade coming on, I need to walk away.

In the long run, I don’t even have a problem with letting the government use my money for part of the year. But they know how much to refund me. At the end of every January they should just send out a statement saying this is what you owe or this is your refund. Check our math. You just check it. Make sure everything looks good. Then send it back and Get your refund or pay what you also owe. It really shouldn’t be left up to us to figure out how much we owe or get refunded. And if we’re wrong, we get audited and then fined with penalties.

Just use a password manager. You only have to remember one password (or use biometric login, like I do), it can generate passwords for you (based on parameters you choose), and when you're logged into the manager it'll auto-populate or give you the option to have it enter your login and password for you. And you can have the same manager on multiple devices and it'll stay updated with your passwords across all devices. Obviously, like with literally everything, there is some risk having all your passwords located in one location but that's why you make sure you use safe practices and setup all the security you should have.

I once told a male gynecologist that he could talk to me in 20 years about the "quality of life" when he went through this every month - when someone would break into his house every month to tie his junk in a knot, then inject him with hormones that would cause crazy mood swings, water retention and cramps that felt like someone was beating him relentlessly with a two by four across his lower back and abdomen. This guy was the living epitome of "A male gynecologist is like a mechanic who never owned a car."
