    “We need to cut down the insane cycle of churning through personal electronics”

    Translation: We need to slow down the pace of innovation!

      I recently upgraded from an iPhone 13 to a 15 Pro Max. The innovation on this thing is incredible! There’s like an extra camera lens on it!

        Looking at their account, I’d honestly bet money that they’re an apple employee. Half of their posts and comments are about, and very much in favor of, Apple

          Could be, although there are certainly no shortage of people willing to shill for massive companies.

      The innovation of DRM and Intels SGX extention is the reason no current-gen PC can play 4K Blurays in 4K.

        Of course they can! You just need to download your blurays from reputable sources.

      This has to be one of the stupidest takes ive seen. They aren’t innovating, they are making it so things break after set amounts of time, you cant repair it without massive headaches and the expense of proprietary parts, so people end up basically having to buy a new device that is either the exact same or had only a few changes to it but costs more money than the original. That’s not innovation, that’s just a cash grab.

      If it means reducing waste… okay?

      I don’t really need much innovation in my personal electronics, I’d still have an iPhone 3GS if it still worked.
