Should most electronics come with no servicability at all, because most customers are not gorillas breaking products for no good reason?

The road to enshittification is paved with people telling you to just use the popular thing everyone else, calling removable media “e-waste”, or even suggesting you to just buy a pair of Raycons if you don’t want to pay for electrostatic headphones and an audiophile external DAC.

Return of socketed mobile CPUs when?

Older ThinkPads are unbeatable, especially those that still have the CPU sockets in them, and can be upgraded. I put an i7-4702MQ into my L440, now it performs really well with Manjaro, at the cost of sometimes draining the CPU in 30-60 minutes under very high loads (battery might need some rebuilding).

Or maybe it will come with some subscription model to get you more power, from the cloud of course.

Maybe he would be onboard if it was called “age verification, to make sure you’re not exposed to trans people”…

Will we see translucent Macbooks once again? Currently I’m pondering whether to replace the shell of my Dualsense controller with a translucent one (would look sick alongside with the LEDs), as translucent electronics look cool, except the techbro class wants us to have “sleek, ultrathin models made with premium materials” only.

You will own nothing and you will be happy!
