  • Proprietary card audio port? What are you talking about? Apple doesn’t care about wired audio and neither does the average consumer.

    I’ve been using Bluetooth headphones for many years and imo it was the right call to push the industry in this direction. Bluetooth headphones don’t die as quickly as you think. My first gen QC35 lasted close to 5 years when I replaced them and the battery was still good. They were replaced because they started making a weird noise randomly and I didn’t take the best care of them so probably some wire in them became loose or something.

    People don’t like change but if you still want to use wired headphones you can. Use a USB-C/lightning adapter to headphone jack.

    Batteries can last a long time. We have a Tesla in the driveway that I expect the battery to last 10+ years at least.










  • We have a Tesla and most owners love them because they’re good cars. Cost of ownership is next to nothing and our Model Y had next to no issues so far (scratch on seat when we picked it up which they replaced with a service appointed).

    It costs less than $2 per 100 km to run while the prior car cost closer to $20 per $100 km in premium fuel. Also no oil changes or other significant maintenance (spark plugs, transmission oil, etc.) We save $3000 of gas per year and we’re in a luxurious/premium car. What I don’t understand is why anyone would buy a GLC/Q5/X3 over a Model Y. Who wants to spend $15k on gas in 5 years?
