So..why is the iOS volume control in there?

It's been "enhanced". You rotate the speaker and fire the little ball on an arc to land on the volume bar.

I think there might be a gif that isn't playing but the seemingly subtle jab at Apple's volume control for some reason gave me a chuckle.

Our office time management software, when first implemented, only had drop down lists for entering start end finish times, broken down by the minute

'make a noise as loud as the you want the volume to be'

If this actually worked I would use it daily. Seems awesome

The curling stone was thrown with too much spin. I called for back 12 volume but it’s not going to turn in.

Some of these aren't just bad, they're downright evil. Don't be surprised if someone implements one of them not realizing they're supposed to be a joke.

I like the, move location to adjust volume :D

anyone remember the quicktime 6(?) weird volume slider from 1999 on classic MacOS ? The first version of a mac app I can remember that used a brushed metal skin

It was actually quicktime 4(!) (I feel old), with the rotary volume control, like a thumb-wheel. The horror..
