US drivers are typically too aggressive for roundabouts to work because nobody lets anyone merge in.

They're all over San Diego now and they're great. Cars are slowing down and the roundabouts are way better than stop signs.

But sometimes I want my microwave to run for 5 minutes at 30% and then seven minutes at 75% without getting up in between each set.

Alright, I'll accept that as a reason. It still sucks that I turn the phone off by mistake so often because of it being placed right opposite the volume button, but your explanation does make design sense.


This is "by design" rather than a bad design. Apple's a piece of poo poo and wants to milk you out of as much money as possible. Standardizing with mini USB wouldn't allow them to ask for $20+ for a replacement charger cable. Hell, every hotel I've been in (I travel a lot) had the previous Apple docking station. A giant gently caress you to them changing it to the lightning in the first place. Almost looks like mini USB but it isn't, lol gently caress you.

gently caress you, Apple.

No, dipshit, it's because all the other connectors are lovely and the electronics to make them work are thick.

Lightining is incredibly loving fast, the connector is thin, bi-directional & super easy to insert, and the electronics that make it all work are incredibly loving lean thin and allow them to make really sexy thin hardware.

Lighting is better than USB in every goddamn way. You just hate Apple out of dumbshit principle because the people that used to throw you into trashcans at school own iPhones.

Europeans managed to do it just fine.

Individual countries far smaller did, on an irregular schedule.

The EU, about the size/population of America, can't accomplish poo poo - except putting Roma beggars at every Nordic train station.
