This could be a textbook example of a strawman.

It’s been my favourite series for so long, it’s so hard to explain to someone why it’s so good because it just sounds like another fantasy adventure series, but it’s so gosh darn good.

This is actually really funny

Not sure about IVF, but in some countries with a high rate of female foeticide, pre-birth sex determination is illegal; although it is still practiced.

Range Rovers, unfortunate cars that they are.

The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini! I’ve read it too many times. It’s a really good hero’s journey and the characters are all really interesting. Plus it’s focused on dragons and magic and elves and dwarves, lots of cool creativity that goes on in the world. And I just really enjoy Paolini’s world-building. He’s very good at it and it stays consistent. There are two wars that I remember, one is a small-scale thing that sets a lot of events in motion, and the other is the big climax at the end of the series. It’s my favourite series next to The Dark Tower. I’d highly recommend it!

Yeah, it’s about having the choice

I’d argue it’s a bigger moral choice than no usb-c display out. And the $8 dongle doesn’t resolve it. I find that I use wired headphones while charging my phone about 30% of the time, making 30% of my time using them either vastly inconvenient or time that I can’t use my wired earphones. The good vs evil comes in when you think about why they removed the jack - which was only to sell their wireless buds. There is no other reason that stands any questioning.

And it’s a phone that I would’ve considered if it had one.

I could list dozens of reasons but at the end of the day it comes down to having the option and making the choice, instead of having it made by some company. And as someone who repairs their own phones, 3.5mm jacks really don’t take a lot of space. It’s definitely not enough to make a substantial improvement to battery size. You question the point of having them, I question the point of removing them when they were (and still are) a universal standard with not many downsides.
