    A law. A law to mandate 3.5mm headphone jacks on cellphones.

    That’s the dumbest thing I’ve read all week.

      I mean a law is why Apple is adopting the USB type-c on the iPhone… Else they were never going to change.

      Edit, fixed word

      You must not read much then. There are much dumber things said by very powerful people on the front page of Lemmy right now.

        I’ll do you one better:

        The government should mandate that there be no external loudspeakers, barring a simple ringer, on any mobile device.

        I think mine might be just a shade dumber, but I can’t tell

        No, “gov’t should regulate headphone jacks” is fucking dumb.
