Reminder that these ancient sockets are why walls are so thick.

It doesn't exist unless Apple brings it to market.

Not sure if we have enough courage for that.

No, what we need is MORE POWER!!1!!1one!1One!11!!

Walls are thick for improved insulation and structural integrity

Smaller one may be not large enough for more powerful things (700W driller, 3000W furnace... Enjoy your house burned)
And it's impossible to change a global standard of an entire continent

>>56491743
Reminder that I don't fucking care how thick my phone is yet I *still* don't need a 3.5mm jack because I *want* wireless headphones to succeed. The sooner big players such as Apple "force" the technology, the sooner we'll get better and cheaper headphones.

Wireless energy is not an option you fucking retarded faggot, and walls are thick for other reasons too. Piping, sound isolation, heat insulation etc. are all other reasons that walls are thick.

Kill yourself, you retarded faggot.

Put pipes under the floor.

Active noise canceling.

Stop being poor and get a better heater.

Luddites like you are the reason we still build houses with obsolete crap like walls.

Why would you specifically want something proprietary?

Even worse when it comes to efficiency.

And what if there are multiple floors?

Throughout an entire apartment/house? Or are you suggesting everyone wears a noise cancelling headset permanently?

I didn't realise you were just shitposting before now. Here's your (You)

>why walls are so thick
The only quality difference between a mobile trailer home and a house in the suburbs is the thickness of the walls and floors.
So why does it fucking matter?

>>56492386
It's an iPhone analogy

>>56491949
>proprietary technology that creates a barrier to entry for new providers will create better products

Okay

I don't get why everything can't just be wireless. Cords are so archaic. It's 2016

>>56492562
This is actually a pretty good list

>>56492421
>muh efficiency
Not a problem for most devices, and you don't need high-power devices in most rooms.

>And what if there are multiple floors?
Then you build your bathroom downstairs.

>headset
Just use your AirPods you retard. Only manchildren and pajeet hotliners use headsets.

>I didn't realise you were just shitposting before now.
And you decided to reply anyway.

Aren't American walls mostly made of plywood anyways? Why would you want to make them even thinner? Do you enjoy listening to what your neighbor is doing?

Just wanted to give a friendly (You) m8 <smiley with a carat nose>

>>56491743
spark plugs are the major risks with slimmer plugs put in the sockets

>>56492562
Bong plugs are way overengineered. (Fuses in each plug were necessary because UK homes used to be wired in a ring circuit) Nowadays here's literally nothing they provide over Schuko which justifies their size.

>>56491743
Actually, it's probably building and fire safety codes that are keeping walls at their respectably safe and reliable thicknesses. Nice try though.
