We shouldn’t legislate repairability at the expense of reliability. The only people that benefits are repair shops. That should be up to the user to choose, as it is now.
Yeah - it’s fairly obvious that linked article is in bad faith. The 79-pound repair kit is what Apple uses in its stores to avoid damaging phones that remain under warranty. If people want to buy a bunch of cheap tools…
It seems like weird logic to legislate that Apple and Samsung must make their phones less reliable for everyone simply because a 5 year old phone made by a cut price manufacturer is no longer supported. Why did you buy…
Just because people who make money out of repair are making this claim, doesn’t make it true. See for example: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2022/04/apples-self-service-r...
You don’t have to buy a new phone to replace the battery. Just take it to any repair shop.
This is just wrong. Replaceable batteries add cost and fragility to the device, make battery life worse, and most phones die because they stop getting software updates anyway. Replaceable batteries will increase e-waste…
Why not just stop using Twitter? Who cares whether the FBI has its thumb on the scales or if it’s Elon Musk and his friends? “The world’s digital town square” is a marketing slogan, and nothing more. If you instead…
Who said anything about doing nothing? Why not just accept that there’s been a Cold War going on all along and we’ve just been pretending otherwise.
Ok, this is fine, but that means we have to classify Twitter as press, with all of the responsibilities as a publisher that this entails.
So every troll and bot farm should be able to have each tweet judged by a jury?
Man that is so horrible. Not all places are like that. Unfortunately it tends to be smaller places that are more trustworthy. I suggest that at very least you may need a good immigration attorney.
There is no ‘finished’. We’ve always been at war with Eastasia.

It’s only a multibillion dollar fraud, so it’s fine for him to fly first class. Imagine if instead he’d been caught selling loose cigarettes on a street corner.

Have you tried putting gravel in your socks at the beginning of the day? It feels great when you get home and finally take them off.
That expectation has generally been based on having a well respected CEO. Having no CEO may reasonably affect expectations.
