Relatable.

Except it's missing:

5b. Try 100 different things, none of which fix it and several of which will create other problems later

I suspect cigarettes generated a lot more litter but with a lot less precious metals in it

as every accessory with a lightning port just became e-waste. I guess Mother Nature didn’t see that.

I think it's interesting that you see this as USB-C's fault.

If Apple had stuck to a standard connector they would have been on usb-c in a year or two anyway and none of that e-waste would exist.

Or if they went back on their word and switched to usb-c from lightning after a couple years, there would also be way less Lightning e-waste. What do you think happens to all those Lightning accessories when someone switches from iPhone to a different device?

Apple's proprietary Lightning connector is responsible for the e-waste, not USB-C or regulators.

These regulations will stop companies like Apple making proprietary connectors purely for profit that generate all the e-waste in the first place.

Meh, they're all pretty bad imo

Modern Religion is an oxymoron

I just like to have a little minimap following me like in a video game.

I use Waze whenever I drive, it also keeps me informed about accidents, cops, and other hazards.

A shining example of cutting edge Apple innovation

"Popular with locals:"

The 100+ people at the company are not responsible for what happened, the 2-3 people that should have dealt with it are.

That's not how businesses work.

Those 2-3 people were acting as employees of the company, executing business for the company. The company is responsible for those actions.

You can't just hand-wave it away as "our employees suck at their jobs".

You hired them. You authorized them to do those jobs. You are responsible for the manner in which they were done (or not done)
