@dw_innovation and that's also added by #AntiRepairDesign by all the #GAFAMs that do imacceptable stuff like #SolderedDownStorage, #SolderedDownRAM, #GluedInBatteries and #RivetedKeyboards that have no reason to exist except fleecing customers by overcharging them for more #Szorage & #RAM as well as enshuring #Repairability is twarted below cost-effective.

And don't even get me started on #MamfacturedEwaste like #AI #Chips and #ASIC|s for #Shitcoins like #Bitcoin which are inherently #unsustainable and unlike #CPU|s, #GPU|s and other #UsedHardware not really #refurbishable and #recycle-able or even #upcycle-able beyond being "the most complex, noisy and inefficient space heaters possible"...

@quincy und damit meine ich nicht nur #CRU's & #FRU's wie bei #Lenovo #ThinkPad, #Fairphone und @frameworkcomputer sondern im Zweifelsfalle alle Bauteile...

Proprietärer Mist alla #ISL9240 z.B. muss frei verkäuflich sein egal für wen.

#Apple's #AntiRepair - Feigenblätter & #DRM auf Ersatzteile sind eine Beleidigung für Endnutzer ubd gehören als #Umweltverbrechen verfolgt!

@frumble gibt mehrere Gründe:

Wenn überhaupt würd' ich nen #Unicomp #Performa, #ModelM13 oder nen #TexShinobi kaufen weil #Lenovo hat die kabelgebundene Version des "Compact Keyboard with UltraNav" eingestampft und durch eine 3x so teure dahtlos-only - Variante ersetzt die keinen Vorteil gegenüber der vorherigen hat.

Seriously, #Apple preventing people and businesses from #refurbishing should be illegal!

And I sincerely hope both @EU_Commission and @Bundesverband will actively go after manufacturers that want to deny people their freedom to actually own their devices as per "1st sale doctrine".

Like it's none of Apple's business if someone chose to get a #refurbished display unless they want to fraudulently sell it as a new device and not a replacement - but that's already covered with fraud.

@goedelchen @jlcrawf @smcl @q3k @BNetzA @EU_Commission or because they are too paranoid or because like with all goverments that can afford it, they have a pool of cars and drivers and those - like any decent-sized taxi service - have their own depots and mechanics onsite as well as spare parts because downtime costs money.

Imagine if #cabs or #ambulances and #FireTrucks were to get the #AntiRepair #malware treatment...

@q3k Does any regulator know of this #Sabotage of #CriticalInfrastructure by the #Manufacturer?

I'm shure these trains ain't exclusive to to one country and regulators from @BNetzA and @kartellamt@social.bund.de to @EU_Commission will likely be very interested in such deliberate acts of #AntiCompetiton, #AntiRepair and basically attacks on #PublicTransport #infrastructure done by #NEWAG to fleece customers!

I mean, this is next-level assholeism and makes #JohnDeere and #Apple look like #RightToRepair fans.

@primonatura not only is #Apple's claim #misleading at best, but their #AntiRepairDesign is harmful to the envoirment and customers.

In no way can they make a product so #green that it justifies #AntiRepair and preventing people from #UseLonger, #Repair & #Upcyvle before #Recycling.

@EU_Commission must ban this bs right now!

@threetails not really...

EVs are less repair-friendly and #Tesla espechally goes full #Apple-style #AntiRepair.

What EVs do well is Torque: You get basically 100% the torque across the entire rpm range.

I do hope that instead of thicc #BEV|s we'll see smol and cute #PLV's that save on weight and rare metals and increase range with methanol fuelcells.

After all, there is a need to go smaller and more efficient:

@anarresti @Fairphone @frameworkcomputer Bzgl.#hp bin ich nicht gut zu sprechen weil die #FUD mitels 'softem' "#VendorLock" auf #RAM machen:

Wenn das RAM nicht hp-branded ist brickt es #PXE-Boot und automatische Starts und wirft bei JEDEM (!!!) [Re-]Boot ne Bullshit-Fehlermeldung die stets manuell per F1 auf der Gerätetastatur ümnestätigt werden muss.

Ich finde das ne absolute Gängelung und #AntiRepair-Maßnahme welche anders als z.B. Allowlistings für #WLAN & #WWAN keine valide Begründung hat!
