They're like that in this apartment we're renting and I keep seeing them elsewhere. I don't get it.

But I used to have a Spectrum computer, and it had no power switch. If you plugged it in then it was just on

Something I've learned talking to my bri'ish friends online over the years: this happens to you guys because you have those switches. I cannot think of anything I've bought in the US that didn't have its own power control for when it's plugged into the wall (unless it's something silly that I made or, for whatever fucking reason, Christmas lights and ONLY Christmas lights as every other decorative string light I own has a switch)
