It's the least they can do after selling people a useless gadget.

Now that I've had it a couple weeks, I'm an even bigger fan of my new modular, repairable laptop from : lightweight, keyboard is a dream, comparable/better to MS Surfaces I've had (keyboard went bad).

BONUS: with the intro of this new series, they've put the older model on sale!

It's a million small choices like this that will help us reduce waste (particularly ewaste) & live more sustainably on the planet.

I don't throw away lamps but "burn" them in my dwellings. They give off sufficient light and provide some heat as well. Currently one CFL has been consumed, have a box full of them.

Do you know when you have hung on to a mobile phone for too long? When you get a quote to sell it and the phone is worth $2 USD. Sleep well Pixel2. I'll find something for you to do in the .

We want a future of repairable gadgets and less ewaste.
5-7 years of software support doesn't mean anything if we can't keep the hardware running well for 7 years.
Glad to see iFixit didn't go quiet on this one.

I've been trying to highlight Samsung's scummy business practices for a couple years now, but when they can't even make a support contract work with iFixit, it's a REAL bad look.

Malaysians buy 1 million #smartphones per MONTH. This is absolutely insane. There should be no reason to "upgrade" any phone that is less than 5 years old. It's just marketing and forced #obsolescence
