Regarding your example, I recently got a robot vacumm cleaner and I made sure it came with a traditional IR remote, because I know the manunfacturer's Android app won't always be available and it's already unreliable.

The propietary shit around bicycles was never good, especially drivetrains, but on the other hand most of it was some sort of standard easy enough to machine with modern technology that you got at least 1 factory in china still cranking out the most esoteric shit possible because ehh it costs them $2 to make or something and they can sell it for $25 or something, why not. It's just pipes and diameters and threading.

The popularity of brachycephalic dogs especially French bulldogs and backyard breeders of them and their horrible health issues. 90 percent of people who have them have no idea why their 5,000 dollar dog can't breath or aspirates or get paralyzed/horrible back pain.
thinking that waste heat is a rounding error and not worth accounting for / reducing.
will be pretty fucking dumb to get co2 under control only to find out that we're still heating up the planet with every recharge, we're literally pumping heat into the ground (yay heatpumps! wait, shit) and we think it's 'free', but eventually even that will add up, and be ever so much more apparent once the fossil fuels stop burning, but the temps keep climbing.
everything we own or make dumps all it's resistance generated heat right into our atmosphere.
