What're you looking at?
I assume you're being rhetorical?

Q: I need a rechargeable battery that will last 10 years in service. My boss is suggesting lithium-ion. Any suggestions?
A: This is an open question, since you don't say how many charge/discharge cycles you need. Unfortunately lithium ion won't last 10 years. Industry rule of thumb has been "2 years whether you use them or not." The technology has been improving, and some are now saying "3 years whether you use them or not." The reason for the short life is that the electrolyte reacts with the lithium ions and creates crud on the electrodes.
This, of course, depends on your criteria for failure. The 2-3 years is based on 20% permanent loss in capacity. I have a lithium ion battery for my cell phone that is 5 years old, but it is only good for one call a day (which is enough for me). No one will guarantee lithium ion rechargeable cells for 5 years, or even 3 years. Another problem with lithium-ion is it doesn't do well with fast discharge times. The higher the rate of discharge the more reaction occurs with the electrolyte, and the faster the crud builds up. There are lithium polymer batteries that can give higher currents, but lifetime is also a problem with them. NiCad is the best for long life. NiMH may be a possibility, it depends on how many charge/recharge cycles. NiCad is by far the best for fast charge. Lead acid lasts 3-5 years on standby. So the only possibility for a 5-10 year life is NiCad, and then only if you charge them right, don't discharge them past 1 volt per cell, and over-specify them so that you still have enough run time even though they are starting to degrade.
You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.

What a wonderful miracle if only we could look through each other's eyes for an instant.

So why haven't apple made it replaceable?
Well, shall we go?

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

I find it very amusing that anyone who wants to watch that video has to download Apple's quicktime software, and therefore also download Apple's iTunes too.
That was particularly well thought out by the Neistat brothers
