@MsMerope @ai6yr Personally, I think #Microaoft should be sued for the #EnvoirmentalDamages due to them pushing #ReducedLifecycle with #CensorBoot & #Windows11!
#ReducedLifecycle
@dennishorn #ReducedLifecycle um reiche Deppen effektiver aBzuzocken!
- Genauso wie mit #eSIM statt #DualSIM + #eSIMs auf Karte, kein #microSD, kein #Klinkenstecker und extra zerbrechliche Hardware mit verklebten Akkus!
@MattHatton nodds in agreement
The #Enfattening and #Enshittification of #tech is neither #sustainable nor should it be accepted, respected, gone along with or allowed to begin with.
- #WastefulComputing should be outlawed just like #PlannedObsolescence and "#ReducedLifecycle" in #tech...
The only reason #Apple does it is to enforce a #ReducedLifecycle!
@Crell @alina It's not an ignorant rant.
- I've made peace with it, just as I've made peace never touching #Windows ever again.
You may call me an "opinionated asshole" from your point of view, but I sincerely wish I was wrong.
- Look where all the absurd complexity got us: #NSAbook, #JavaScript-based #malware that mines #shitcoins and #tracking #cookies.
The real cost doesn't come through to #consoomers except as #ReducedLifecycle due to #bloat.
But then again what do I expect from a coward doing the reply & block - combo, because confronting the fact that people got burned out by shit like PHP would mean admitting mistakes, and we can't have that as a fanboy.
#PlannedObsolescence in terms of #Software and #Hardware is bad.
- Cuz if people can play the original #Game they bought x years back and continue playing it then they won't buy the full-priced #remaster!
Basically instead of "#LiveService" we also have "#DeadService" to kill good games!

@alsutton @aurynn @LineageOS @GrapheneOS @EUCommission @bsi precisely that is the point: Manufacturers should be obligated ny law to provide free, unrestricted access to documentation, drivers and a reproduceable toolchain to build #ROMs for their devices.
- Anything else is "#ReducedLifecycle" / *"#PlannedObsolescense and should be outlawed as #EnvoirmentalCrime!
@ai6yr Personally if I had the €€.€€€ needed I'd start a business and employ people collecting said "#ReducedLifecycle'd" machines, slap a good #Linux distro on top and sell them at reasonable prices.
I can get like a dozen machines for less then €200 with a few upgrades and a Distro that makes them useful for a lot of folks.
#SOlderedDownStorage / #SolderedDownSSDs should be
#illegal due to being #ReducedLifecycle / #PlannedObsolescence!
@scriptkiddie the fact that @EUCommission and @Umweltbundesamt didn't fine #Microsoft #billions if not more for creating 100% avoidable #eWaste through #ReducedLifecycle is beyond me.
- Seriously, the reason why the #EU did not mandate #IEC60906-1 for #PowerSockets was the fact that they expected this to cause 700.000t of avoidable eWaste and cost €100B whilst taking 75+ years...
#AI #Enshittification #Microsoft #Windows #Windows10 #AllGafamsAreBad #AllGafamsAreEvil
@fuchsiii the nice part is that this allows #LyingWithNumbers.
- The #LED lamp most likely is #MadeInChina thus the entire #CarbonEmissions for it's #production get accounted for in #China and the #EU can pat itself on the back for reducing #CarbonEmissions.
Nevermind the #ReducedLifecycle and the entire production chain can never offset such a high failure rate, but those don't show up on #EnergyBills, #PowerMeters and the like...
@andreas_heitmann @arstechnica It's just that they constantly #engineer shit to have a #ReducedLifecycle and be purposefully #unrepairable!
Louis Rossman Voice: "Why blow a fuse when a a connector could burn [instead]?"
I think #ToolFree #RemoveableBatteries should be made #mandatory per law as a matter of #FireSafety, #ConsumerProtection and #EnvoirmentalProtection.
- Every #GluedInBattery is #AntiRepairDesign aimed at a #ReducedLifecycle and should be prosecuted as #EnvoirmentalCrime!
@PC_Fluesterer @mardor trotzdem sollte solch #ReducedLifecycle per Desgn verboten werden - genauso wie #AntiRepairDesign!
@lamp yes and no.
Yes, #Apple will #EoL the #Intel-based "Cheesegrater" #MacPro by 2029-2030 as per their preannounced platform lifecycle of 10 years.
No, because #Apple's #ARMv8.1-A - based #SoC's are heavily modified in that they require a feckton of custom chips solely for the purpose of #ReducedLifecycle and making repairs harder if not impossible to facilitate...
Unlike their #amd64 / #EM64T - predecessors they don't have a dedicaded #EFI chip with "#BridgeOS" aka. #AEFI aka. #macOS - #Recovery on but use the exact same #Flash chips that are #RAID0 as #SSD, and since those are custom with their own controllers ( based off info from @marcan ) - basically every chip is it's own NVMe but proprietary...
And when (not if) they (inevitably) die (due to exceeding TBW lifecycle or terrible engineering frying them with 12V on a 2,7V rail ), the entire system is braindead.
And that is not by accident but rather intentional...
@simontsui They’ve lost the source code, haven’t they? 🫤 This is why we need a law to force source code into the public domain when companies cease to maintain products.
#reducedLifecycle
@nicolas17 @simontsui @moses well, you could then sue #Dlink and the users for criminal neglect...

#NotLegalAdvice but any decent #ISP and #Hoster will not only offer free #DDoS protection but if necessary just #blackhole traffic from attackers at the IX like #DECIX.
That being said the #ReducedLifecycle is the problem!
@tk @RealJournalism @Sir_Osis_of_Liver The question is rather for what do we use the very much finite resources?
#AntiRepairDesign - #Tech a lá #Apple with #ReducedLifecycle??

#Egoism on Wheels a lá #CyberTruck and other #SuperUselessVehicles???
