Every single cable you buy for Apple products is different. Not different from each other, but different from the rest of the smart phone industry. Does it need to be? No. Is it to anyone's benefit? Just Apple's. Is it to anyone's detriment? To the users and the environment.

Micro USB did.

And then instead of making a connector like USB-C that everyone could use they made their own proprietary one.

I bought a Samsung. Then I bought a one plus. Then I bought a pixel.

Imagine if I had to throw out my charging cables every time I changed brands. Imagine if everyone acted like Apple. It would be incredibly degenerate.

Also, everyone brings up micro USB, but those cables still find a ton of use in my home for all the different other devices that use it. I'm not gonna find an Xbox controller that uses lightning cables for example.

If every cell phone brand acted like Apple we would have like thirty different proprietary chargers.

We shouldn't give them a pass just because they're the only ones brazen enough to be stupid.

I connected my phone to tether internet since the power was out but the cell network was still going.

Thank you. I might try it out via game pass.

Something paid, something something nautical term

That's a fair point. Could you do me a favor and let me know how it is?

You mistook me for someone else.

I've been playing their games since oblivion, I haven't played this one yet, but if people are complaining about the engine already then I know there's a decent chance I'll air the same grievances.

Though, you're quick to pull out the grass touching, I must ask, why are you so staunch of a defender of Bethesda? Maybe we both should be touching grass.

That's the part that scares me, I've played no man's sky, it was fun for a short while but then got tired pretty quickly.

If this game keeps getting compared to no man's sky and is said to come up short, then I'm definitely gonna wait to try it for cheap.

Their engines have been showing it's age since Skyrim came out. The fact that they got this far is a testament to their willpower, but man, if they'd change it up it might work out really well for them.

There's a lot of government positions that require just high school, and pay more than typical.

But they're annoying to apply to, and often can make you wait a long time. Look into your cities job bank, same with state/province and/or federal level.
