From the way he worded it it seems that the kid was an ordinary humanoid model

doesnt matter if a country opposes it, or doesnt make their own legislation. Comes down to what will make the most money for the manufacture.

Haven’t read the full order for India, but yes, the EU does have a solid track record of being thorough.

Nothing would please me more to be able to have one standard for all charging needs be it wired or wireless.

That's what she said.

I don't know about India but the EU law (the one that passed that mandated type C) says that a device not using wires to charge has to use aj open standard (such as Qi).

So good luck to them, they'll still have to comply with the rest of the world.

I have not heard about these amazing hearing aids...wait a minute

👌🏼

Yeah, that's my though process as well.

Maybe if the US is opposed, and China is angry, then combined they have enough force to push back. But if China or USA says "yeah that's perfect" then the last big market gates will fall

Even Brazil is following this if I am not wrong.

American software dev here;

We're slowly adopting GDPR compliant practices (even for American-only services).

Our main barrier is for California and New York to adopt a very similar policy, then our federal government will eventually follow.

Funnily enough I can see Apple trying to push that narrative and people still buying into it.

Then the only holes left in the phone will be the speakers. So the speakers will be the next to go and you will be forced to buy Airpods for around.

They’ll just completely remove wired charging and force all iPhone users to buy MagSafe xD

Transparency and noise cancellation tech is available in all forms of headphones, including over the ear

There is a host of Settings to prevent damage to the ear

It's not that the rest of the world that needs to follow. It's just not justifiable for manufacturers to make one device for the EU and India (massive markets) and one for the rest of the world. Just so they can make a few extra bucks selling crappy charge cables.

So everyone can enjoy 1 charging ecosystem.

Now with both EU and India on it, the rest will most probably follow. Because why not.

Funny, some might say they cause a problem they’re now solving. Hmmm.

Tim Apple will not be a happy bunny today.

Does this technology only work with this kind of ear-sealing earbud? I don't like this style, but I'd like the benefits in the amateur airpods.

This is bullshit. My hearing aids cost $7k and are tailored to my hearing loss. Consumer grade headphones are no where near what hearing aids do.

The hearing loss they almost certainly caused.

Thank you European Union and India.

You have made the rest of the world's digital lives better

I recently tried to use them at a loud party. After tweaking everything, I expected the headphones to cancel out the background noise and music while amplifying the person talking in front of me. It made about a 20% improvement.
