    Design an automatic toilet lid closer. The world will beat a path to your door.
    Doesn't Tim Taylor from Home Improvement already have the patent on that? (episode 109 towards the end)

    It would cost money to retrofit into schools and other public buildings, and you know how conservatives feel about spending money. If it isn't on the military or police, then it's a needless waste. In fact, let's just get rid of public schools altogether, and let each school govern itself in all of its affairs - religious affiliation, bathroom gender, curriculum, whatever. Then, parents who can afford schooling for their children can truly decide where to send their kids. If they can't afford it - hey, the world needs fast food employees and Walmart stockers, too. 'Murica!!!!!!!!
    Aren't those already the jobs of choice for someone with a degree in English or Art History?

    How about this, we cut back a single F35 right wing landing gear and then we'll have enough money to change all the signs in the nation.

    I dunno. Moving away from proprietary and having a competitor (the competitor) make your screens take some serious balls even if it's not innovative.
    They already released a MacBook that was all USB-C. It makes sense for them to go all in.

    They've been buying components from Samsung while suing them over patent infringement at the same time.

    Agreed. And the states that choose against it are acting out of baseless fear against those who live lives differently than the normals. The trans people do as much as they can to draw as little attention to themselves as possible because they are targets, as proved recently in New Orleans with the two trans-women killed.

    If anybody's going to abuse these laws, it's the people who already do perverted things to get off, like those who hide cameras in air vent covers of bathrooms.
