Geoff and Guy 'plug back in' to talk about how so many of us ended up with an e-waste drawer-full of cables. We also struggle to get through this episode without incorrectly describing USB formats in just about every way possible... which just might tell you something about the headache it can cause consumers.
Highlights include:
💡 How do purchasing behaviours and chip shortages influence design and manufacturing decisions?
💡 Why is it hard to decipher superfluous feature listings when buying new cables?
💡 How do redundant connection options prevent more e-waste?
💡 What tech consumer biases should manufacturers be considering?
