Cellophane, foil, and/or paper.

My ADHD was/is pretty bad, but I learned to type just fine. Even learned on a manual typewriter.

Also lost a 10 page paper in high school because the computer crashed. Rewrote the paper during lunch and study hour because I had to turn it in that day. Learned to save frequently from that experience. Conveniently, deadlines help with ADHD concentration. It's one of the reasons ADHD people procrastinate. Once the pressure of the deadline gets bad enough we are usually able to focus on the task at hand.

The iPod was so derivative of the creative labs mp3 player that Apple ultimately had to pay them $100 million.

The Lisa and later the Macintosh copied from xerox. Something that everyone was doing around then. Amiga and Atari ST both had guis. Hell even the commodore 64 had Geos. The Mac didn't even get color until 1987.

Handspring had a smart phone, complete with touch screen and apps, years before the iPhone.

Mac os didn't have proper multitasking until version 7.5, years after Windows had it.

Onkyo created the first true wireless earbuds.

Yeah, but they do sometimes take a cut off the top.

Doesn't Australia include the tax in the listed price of the item instead of adding it at the end?

Get yourself a blade bank and put your used blades in it. They are a cheap and safe way to dispose of your razor blades.

I feel like you're confusing intelligence and education. There are plenty of smart uneducated people, and quite a few educated stupid people.

Intelligence exists, it's just hard to measure.

I thought the sun will become a red giant, and the earth will eventually be pulled into the sun. Which I believe will still leave most of our atoms intact.
