My wife bought new toothbrush heads on her way home from work today.

They didn’t fit. She bought the “Oral B IO” heads, but we have a “regular” Oral B toothbrush, not the Shiny Fancy IO design.

And this is after she bought replacement heads last week at another store – which turned out to be “compatible for” a different brand :(

Ugh.

      I’m a programmer by trade and I still have no idea what this thread derailed into.

        I guess the other guy answered in a wrong thread. What is true is that most embedded systems I have worked on used C++. Could be the same for those electric toothbrushes.

          Still though, I have no idea of the relevance in the thread. 😆 Gotta be a mis-reply for sure. Or I’m whooshing on the whole thing.
