Electrical plugs also haven’t had any real innovations since the ground wire. I hope to see innovations in power/data cables to cellphones more frequently than that!
Edit: even if the innovations is just faster data transfer and more power.
- jakobegger 7y agoElectrical plugs have evolved besides adding a ground wire, at least in the EU. The most recent improvement is that most new outlets are now child-save (while staying compatible with legacy plugs). And I think that it‘s a good thing that things don’t change all the time! Our electronic devices that we use regularly need 4 different chargers! I‘m looking forward to the day when it‘s all just going to be USB-C.
