Exactly, paying for long-term upkeep is the fundamental concept of the company. Imagine if all phone manufacturers ensured handsets were repairable and kept software updated.

Nowadays you could run folding at home and set it up so you earn some banano, Contribute to science, heat your house and get much potassium.

It's just concrete and a robot the concrete is like 5k the robot 100k but it could be moved they will still sell these places for 500k and call it a day

every high end or studio quality headphone uses wires instrans of Bluetooth because the difference in quality is easily recognizable.

if you like Bluetooth and have never tried professional headphones o luxury quality headphones, i don't fault you, but nobody that takes seriously their gear is going to mix or market music with Bluetooth headphones lol.

not because something is new it's going to be instantaneously better than what came before, wired headphones still have plenty of big benefits over wireless headphones.

I use apple headphones with a Galaxy S9

But what headphones do you use? If they are very old then why not stick with an old phone as well?

But this one comes with a new hat!

There using concrete not print why not just wall form it and be done in 3 weeks BUT NO the act like its the future Right ok

The same people as "They"

The iPhone 6s, that came out at the same time as the Fairphone 2 has been moved to the vintage list, meaning it still has both hardware and software support, but it no longer gets the latest version of upgraded software. It'll probably stay there for a couple more years before being moved to the obsolete list, when support is finally dropped.

I really, really like StarCraft II, in fact it might be my favorite game ever. For all of Blizzard's misgivings, that is one thing I cannot and will not take away from them.

My point being, what does that have to do with the article?

I DO.

And longer lasting?

Even if not. Still seeing a lot potential since it allows to minimize wasted space and allows to easily lay pipes etc. for cables and so on.

Amazon could invest in this kind of technology and then get into the real estate game and absolutely crush with a model similar to Sears back in the 30’s.

Damn it global warming

Can’t new with a free rotisserie, so there’s that.

Right, and I laughed because it comes at the cost of strangled repair rights. RtR has no chance if people are perfectly content with the current setup.

so an m2

When any fan of any thing can back up their love for that thing with legitimately commendable things, I don’t think it should be shot down or avoided simply because you have a personal problem with it.

Apple is notoriously anti repair for sure, and they are the pioneers of insane price jacking for their devices, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that they really do support their hardware with software updates for a long, long time. One of the longest for sure.

The iPad Air 2 only stopped being supported in 2022 with iOS 16. It stayed on the list for nearly 8 years (just 1 month shy of 8). That’s insane. Do you even remember 2014?

I think the “We need more companies doing this” was more about the long-term software support for devices.

I definitely am against Apple’s anti repair attitude, but I can respect them for having one of the, if not the longest, software support for their hardware.

This may blow your mind, but upkeep is not free.

The ink must cost a fortune

>Concrete can be better insulated

Not all iPhones.
