A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The EU already standarized chargers IIRC.
Not sure if that regulation is needed. Back when phone batteries were removable, there were quite a few options available. I remember Nokia genuine batteries being very expensive and it was easy to find third-party cheaper options. That's kind of how it still works in digital cameras, although Nikon apparently is trying to stop 3rd-party batteries on their models
I was thinking of the internal connector from the battery cell.
Yeah, even Apple has to comply
