I can't wait to get back to Oregon
“We need to cut down the insane cycle of churning through personal electronics”
Translation: We need to slow down the pace of innovation!
Is what they want you to think
What innovation would that be, exactly?
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.
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.
