Jandals? Chilly bin? You are confusing us with those across the pond mate. A capital offence I believe…
It’s a real shame. Monopolies in any industry/product inevitably lead to fucking over consumers… time we broke em up I think
People keep buying big tech products and subscriptions then are shocked when they fuck you over? shocked picachu
Anything that helps bookwyrm grow its knowledge library of books (missing a LOT of books that goodreads has) is a good idea. I fear however that combining anything which points people to where to pirate the book might not help the popularity/reputation of bookwyrm as a good OS alt to goodreads.

Is that true? I didn’t realise this.
Apple literally admitted it engages in planned obsolescence practices and has been fined in multiple jurisdictions for doing so.
Not sure why you feel the need to support shady business practices. There are designs that achieve waterproofing/dustproofing while still enabling replaceability. The obvious question then is why would the majority of manufacturers choose a design approach which restricts replaceability?
The point is that virtually every mobile on the market has a non-replaceable battery, and that’s a huge factor driving over-consumption via planned obsolescence.
Because they welded the one consumable that needs replacement to force you to buy new every few years: the battery

A lawsuit waiting to happen… someone needs to class action MS for systemic breaches of privacy. Think of all the critical infrastructure, government, medical, policing, etc. systems processing sensitive, private, and in some cases classified, information.
