I hope they patented the ad cramming technology.

That does it with the ad overload. I'm turning around 360 degrees and walking right out of here.

These swivel-type connectors are awesome - my kid kept going through normal cables like crazy (they would always break apart at the sleeve near the connector due to tension) for the tablet we have; once I switched to these types of connectors I've not had to replace a cable since. That plus a magnetic adapter saves the connection socket too.

Technology is so great that we don't have to adapt or change our behavior.
