And they can’t afford to make repairable products lol.
It’s probably a reason why they’re so big.
Repairing being expensive, you’re more likely to go purchase the new shiny thing.
If you can repair your stuff circumventing their ecosystem, it would be harder for them to squeeze you post-purchase.

And they have the audacity to pretend that they are
greenenvironmentally friendly and most people believe them because they don’t know much about that stuff.
I hate them for that, but yeah. That’s how successful they are, they can afford not to make repairable products and people will still turn to apple regardless.
Obviously the majority of tech companies don’t offer repairable products, but it’s usually cheaper/more convenient to just buy a new one. In apple’s case it’s not
CAN afford, just don’t want to because that’d eat into their exhorbitant profits.
It’s not they can’t, it’s more like they don’t want?
I know, I was just pointing out that they are anti repair. I have a damn “right to repair/ownership” sublemmy so of course I know about that.
I wonder what the implications are now that a company and companies in general are gonna be surpassing the trillion mark. Is it because of the endless money printing or are we headed into a reality where as everything gets more expensive we won’t own anything anymore.
Am I going crazy?
Same as always. It will become not a big deal and then we’ll all get excited when they pass the 10T mark, whilst complaining about what a $100 used to buy.
