Between basic storage being so much larger than it used to be (the 4-8GB days were brutal) and USB-C flash drives that can plug into your charging port, I seldom miss them these days
Still sucks that they removed them as an option though
It’s not so much hiding as glazing over. The fact that anyone would argue that the civil war was about ‘states rights’ should tell you how poorly we recall our history
I’ll never forget reading a textbook in high-school that acknowledged the genocide of the Native Americans before quickly moving on to talk about how stately and wise the people who killed them were
