Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence
  • I laughed when I saw the size of it. It's the same size as the S23 ultra...

    I have an S21 Ultra, so the size doesn't bother me too much. But the Fair phone is objectively a worse device on every level. I want something S23 nonplus non ultra sized if I'm going for an average long lasting daily phone.

  • I think I see the problem with our education system
  • Good rule of thumb for watching education political discussion is that a large portion of the population will blame the teachers.

    It's always the teachers fault for them. Full stop.

    Not the parents, not the incredibly apathetic or combative kids, not the administration running the school, not the politicians making up random standards, nope, none of those guys. Just the person trying to figure everything out with your kids a few hours a day. They're the ones causing all the issues.

    Let's fire them all, pay them less, make them work overtime, and then the problem will be fixed!

    There's a reason over half of teachers leave the profession before year 5 and are high on rates of anxiety, depression, and risk for substance abuse.

  • HP Printrule
  • No he clearly says no ink and no toner. Toner is melted onto the paper after a laser (now mostly LEDs) heat up a drum. He's talking about burning the paper with a laser.... Which would be interesting but really hard to do where a top layer is burned black without toasting the rest of the layers.

  • HP Printrule
  • Sort of. You're renting the ink, not the printer. If you went to Staples or Amazon and got regular ink for the printer, it would immediately start working again.

    If you buy ink from the Instant Ink program, the cartridges are sent to you for far less money than a regular cartridge. They sell page based plans where they make the money back and then new ink just shows up in the mail as you go. HP DRM's these cartridges to prevent people from skipping out on the subscription and printing normally for wayyyyyyy less up front cost.

    HP printers suck. And ink sucks too. So there's a lot of understandable suckiness. But most of the criticisms about HP's ink DRM are just people mixing up Instant Ink and regular ink cartridges and getting mad they can't read instructions.

  • Email clients
  • It is. Most new Microsoft apps are web apps. Though they're ditching electron for some better web wrappers.

    They're also beginning the process of passing 365/Enterprise Outlook for this new watered down Outlook. Enterprise users are obviously pissed to see "Try the new outlook!" hovering over their regular outlook like a cloud of doom.

    The outlook subreddit made a gigantic list of feature imparity. Microsoft has made some feature progress since then in preview. But it'll suck when they actually release it I'm sure.
