Touch? Mac? Airpods? What the fuck are you doing? You aren't doing real business tasks if you're using an iPad.
I'm using it on the phone sometimes to reply to people which I don't think is a weird use case. The AirPods issue happens on macOS and I'm not sure if you're just ignorant but lots of businesses operate on macOS, especially in my industry (ui design, frontend web dev) it's unusual to even see Windows.
Yeah I always call it the printer USB port. I wonder why it’s so popular there? Maybe it’s the USB connector that is hardest to break or pull off by accident?
