I have an idea that is not entirely new but when applied to another industry, it has not been done before. Can it still be patented? And it seems patents are a waste of time as everyone just copies everyone in the tech space. Is it still worth patenting it even if it is patentable?

You cannot patent an idea per se, but if you effectively implement the idea into a process, apparatus, or product that is workable in accordance with conventionally accepted scientific principles, you can obtain a patent for that process, apparatus, or product. So if you have an idea for, for example, a time machine, but can't really "implement" it into a workable piece of apparatus, you will not receive a patent.
