    Apple Inc. announced the 6th generation iPad mini recently. It’s basically a miniaturized version of the iPad Pro and it supports the Apple Pencil II, which is good. But Apple Inc. got rid of its 3.5mm stereo audio jack. @_$!&?)?#!@_$!

      I don’t understand Apple’s obsession with thinness. They moved the headphone jack on the new iMac to the side to keep a desktop computer thin.

      Duh…

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          Perusing various tech review websites that cover the new iPad mini, I am surprised that I have not find one that calls out the removal of the 2.5 3.5mm audio jack.

                  You can never be too rich or too thin.

                  Apple has already disproved the first half of that sentence, now they're working on the rest.

                  I was only joking

                    It wasn't fruitless, since it was about Apple. It was, however, pointless.

                      Fits better in the pocket.

                      On the other hand, Apple has been known to add weights to products, because a heavier piece of electronics feels like it has higher quality. True story.

                      Education is extremely important.
