Most people I know have a drawer full of working phones they don't like anymore. I really don't think the majority of people are looking for repairability as much as you think.

Hmm, nice but that's really a very different kind of device. I don't want anything so bulky - this is like double the thickness of the S9. I'm not using any case, no need - the Gorilla glass is more than enough to survive rep

I dont think so, just looking around the office where I am right now only 2 people out of 15 have their phone in a case.

Why do you limit this to Apple? Samsung and Sony will take extra care to apply the glue properly when fixing your phone, and they will replace your device if their glue fails to do its job. Why are they doing it?

I use my Samsung S9 without any case since the Gorilla glass is more than sufficient for me. It had its fair share of falls on the road when I was getting out of a car - still looks almost new. It even slid down from the top of a roof into

It's also 3 times bulkier than any Samsung/Sony smartphone, though. If that's the price, I don't want it.

Interesting. My instant groceries work just fine and the company I use reports massive profits. It probably helps that they have their own automated warehouse.

Could you give some examples of these things, please? All waterproof hardware I have ever owned (phones, cameras, flashlights, watches, etc) doesn't have user-replaceable batteries. In all cases the batteries need to be replaced by a

Sure thing, but don't make waterproofing impossible in your fight for right to repair, please.

I don't care about Apple. I use phones that are rated waterproof - because I am going to swim with it. I even successfully applied warranty few times (Sony and Samsung) when a phone got fucked this way, since the glue wasn't appli

I don't recall any of these phones being waterproof. The first waterproof phone I've had was Sony Xperia Z and that was glued.

How do you maintain waterproofness without glue? Not just water resistance - I mean actually having the device survive having it in pocket and swimming with it.

Could you be more specific about these generally successful methods? If it is so simple, why are people looking for new/other strategies?

There's much more than one in a million successful 3-kid families, so it's pretty likely this is not a fluke.

I was just visiting Switzerland and these prices are 2 times what's paid there. And like 3-4 times what's paid in Central Europe.

Human babies are born significantly earlier in their development due to birth canal width VS head size. Without this limitation, they'd be born after 2 years or even more.

Gene expression is dependent on incredible amount of variables. It'd be a cosmic level of coincidence to have two clones express the same way. That never happens even in single-cell organisms, much less something as complex as fish or

On this website you have loads of people claiming that Twitter is an utility and should be regulated and even funded from taxes instead of running as for-profit company... I don't agree with this, but I think it's not so clear cut
