Gregory's ServerI'd like to ask everyone even mildly excited about the new #Apple hardware to look at some graphs of environmental indicators and ask if more unrepairable novelty hardware is something we should be using finite natural resources on right now.

@csepp Also #Apple does purposefully make their devices #unrepairable by restricting #suppliers:

@csepp and they purposefully design devices to be more failure-prone...

@csepp The sheer fact that the #MacPro doesn't come with user-replaceable #RAM nor #SSD's is a clear #WontBuy & #disrecommendation, since even #Microsoft got pushed into making the #SSD - which will INEVITABLY FAIL OVER USEAGE LIKE THE BATTERY - replaceable on the #SurfaceLaptop3:

@kkarhan@mstdn.social @csepp@merveilles.town SSD should not be permanently soldered into the motherboard.

@csepp maybe better focus on chinese manufacturing crappy android devices which cover 90% of the market and environmental effect. Apple almost manufacturers on demand and hardware life is way longer |
@csepp That's why I #WontBuy any #Apple hardware, since their #AntiRepair design is an #EnvoirmentalCrime on it's own.
the only winning move is work towards a #repairable alternative:
