  • If it was outselling the main model every year then they’d keep making them small.

    Why would they do that if they make more money on the main model? It's not like you have a choice in iOS manufacturers.

  • Maybe because people aren't given a choice as everything is dictated by the manufacturers.

    Slapping 10 year old hardware into a phone with a small screen is a guaranteed way to make people not buy your phone but that doesn't mean people don't want small screens, headphone jacks, replaceable batteries, etc. They just don't want the garbage manufacturers lump in with these great features so that these phones don't cut into their high-margin device sales.

  • Replacing SMT components would fall outside of repairability for 99.99999% of people. More realistically things like ports, screens, and batteries should be replaceable since they're typically connected to the main board with cables. Furthermore ICs going back on a phone is probably extremely rare while the above mentioned items are very common failure points.

  • Unfortunately phone itself is not impressive especially from OS update standpoint

    I swear to god manufacturers do this on purpose so that they can point to the low volume of sales and claim "See! People don't really want these features" when in reality they've just slapped a couple good features onto a completely dog shit device.

  • The black cylindrical piece with the blue cap at the bottom in the front right of the extruder assembly that looks like it's hanging lower than everything else due to the perspective.

  • I'd say all those EU (and Canada) countries aren't striving to be the economic powerhouse that Japan is and China already has 1.5 billion people compared to Japan's 125 million. Plus most countries rely on immigration to make up the difference while I've heard (but maybe not true) that Japan is hard to immigrate to due to the disapproving culture toward foreigners.

  • The criticism is what prevented Clinton and Harris from getting elected and not their own words, actions, and campaigns? Same with Biden, too, and his extremely narrow victory in 2020? These three individuals who couldn't manage to be more appealing than a failed businessman and reality TV star who'd been a laughing stock in this country for nearly 3 decades preceding his victory?

    Your comment reads like propaganda, and your ideals mirror that of fascists like Putin. You want a dictatorship in this country where criticism is silenced and leaders do what they want, and it looks like you finally got it with Trump. It makes sense why you're so opposed to the DNC doing literally anything differently than their nearly thrice failed strategy of mimicking the right. You want them to keep losing.

  • So you think we need to be more like the Republicans and fall in line to reject any and all criticism of our leaders, and that's the path to fighting fascism? Buddy, that is fascism.

    These warped ideals are exactly why the Democratic party is in the position that it's in. Criticism isn't the issue, it's the shitty politicians pushing Republican ideals through the lens of liberalism and giving people reason to criticize. Sweeping that under the rug just to win an election isn't solving anything. It just leads to more Trump-like candidates holding office while people continue to suffer.
