But you do need to have a copy of the key *before* the original system is broken. MS Bitlocker for example asks you to store the key in your MS account for this reason. Whether you want MS to have your encryption keys is another question but they at least give you the option to easily back them up.

    • @ElvenSpellmaker
      @ElvenSpellmaker 4 года назад

      Us English were spelling things as colour before the US was even a thing in the 14th century. By 15th century both existed due to people wanting to go back to the Latin roots.
      America chose the Latin ending and it seems England eventually settled on the Old French ways.
      However its actually a lot more complicated than that as the u gets dropped in words like humour --> humorous.
      Then there's all the exceptions where we also have adopted the -or ending, such a error and author.
      English is a massive hodgepodge of a lot of languages, which is why it's a Germanic language with about 60% common vocabulary being French inspired.
      Also you can look at things like animals vs food, where the animals are usually Germanic, but the food is usually French. An example is Cow from the Old English "cu" or "cou" (interestingly the plural is kyne or kie), and Beef from the French "bœuf".

I have never repaired a mac and when I was looking on ebay for a macbook I searched the symptoms and came across your videos... that being said I bought an old thinkpad and fixed that instead since it was not way overpriced for the hardware inside and the T410 actually has a full service guide available from Lenovo. Thank you for getting me more concerned for right to repair, I now really try to look for more repairable products as a consumer... I will probably never own a macbook.

    Very often, a CPU change requires a motherboard change, so it being soldered isn't a big deal on laptops. But storage, who the hell wants it to be soldered ? Even in my PHONE I *need* to have expandable storage. I need to upgrade my storage capacity in a few years WITHOUT replacing my WHOLE computer, I need to be able to slap a new SSD when mines dies, I may want to get a faster SSD. Back in the days of easily installable hard drives in laptops, I sometimes have multiple OS on multiple drives and change them like video game cartridges. I know that's not a necessity, but it's an option. And at one time it was useful for me to do that. So please, NVME SSDs are super small, it will not change anything if you made it swappable (espacially since Apple DESIGNS their motherboards).

    Europe doesn't call it Right to Repair, it's Reduction of eWaste. Trying to create rules that allow products to be repaired and not discarded is part of it, and so is standardizing charging standards to help people reuse the charger of a dead product instead of tossing it away. They're currently discussing mandating the availability of "repair parts" for 10 years after discontinuation, but what is a part? To you it's chips, for those that do not know what you do, they accept the whole logic board as a "part". A separate regulation has to prevent, or penalize, the issue of "custom chips" not available from the manufacturer. How to do it without messing up, I don't know.

    You've hit the nail on the head with the analysis of people wanting to buy more stuff unconsciously - same with TVs, phones, cars etc...the inherent design is irrelevant to some extent - most stuff *could* be fixed if there was information and parts were available as you rightly point out. R2R Europe will end up being equally bureaucratic as there are too many fingers in too many pies - if anything it will be worse than in the US I imagine where it seems to be state-based. Whether or not the UK follows the EU or just doesn't bother remains to be seen...

    idk why many people don't get reasonable price for repair. For me it's good tho. i have been a apple user for 6-7 years. i bought iphone 6s when it launched and broke it after like 6 months. i went to their store and they said they don't have tools to fix it but you can get a brand new one for 100$ far enough i paid for it and done. A couple months from now. i accidently pour water in my Mac pro 2013. Firstly i thought the power supply is dead. So i ordered a 460$(I think) power supply from Ebay. it did't solve my problem. So i asked for a repair directly from apple. They cost me 400$ and replaced the whole Motherboard,Graphics card's,Ram's,Cpu's, and Power supply. So i don't have a problem with their repair and customer service.

    When I look inside our ewaste collection, I mainly find PCs, modular and non-modular. My main thought is that people are not interested in fixing machines, seeing that a lot of computers don't even have any issues, but are simply a little old (2013 or older).

    You can solder whatever you want wherever you want. The only thing that annoys me is the opaque pricing model. I want to be able to estimate how far I can go with the money I'm spending. I'm willing to buy a $300 phone over a $200 one, if you promise I can keep it 50% longer before it needs maintenance. And, before buying it, I want to know about the repair costs, so that I can estimate if I can hope to keep it even longer, by giving some additional money to repair it.

  • @MrPenguin879

    Still rocking an old flagship phone with a user-removable back/battery. Not because I want to, but because It still works, and you can't buy a newer phone that has that feature. I think, at the very least, portable electronics (phones, laptops, tablets) should have a reasonably accessible battery. In the case of laptops, ram and SSD should be swappable. The cheapest Walmart laptop with an aluminum chassis ($250 before this pandemic) has accessible RAM slot and two M.2 slots. Just 6 screws on the bottom and you could get to everything. IOW, cost isn't a huge factor, or else the cheapest of devices would be doing it. Modularity SHOULD be the norm.
    Regulation enforced, no. You are right. Customers created this mess because they agreed to buy the non-serviceable devices. We as consumers need to push for it in order to get companies to start making user-serviceable devices again. If there's nothing that matches your needs that is user-serviceable, buy something used even if it's the same or similar to the one you would have to buy new. That way, it won't directly add to their numbers. Only we can get it through their heads that we don't like this.
    Honestly, if people just stopped buying Apple products, that would probably be enough.

    @zacronzer 4 года назад

    I think a good modular comparison would be comparing current desktop components to laptop component.
    It is not standard anymore for CPU and GPU to be upgradable due to size constraint and thermal limitation.
    Which is understandable but unable to upgrade storage or ram (Which is much accessible and common type of upgradeline in a laptop) Thats why a lot of people are pissed off.
    Though I want to see Apple make a fully enclosed unrepairable propietary laptop chassis which destroy itself if opened.

  • @FerrybigGaming
    @FerrybigGaming 4 года назад

    Before the EU mandated a standard, every company used their own charging port, eventually with the first revision everyone standardized on microUSB, but apple bypassed this law via loophole (they actually make you pay more for allowing to charge your phone over microUSB). So now they had to mandate the actual connector. I really think the current situation is better than the situation before these laws came into place. These laws are more designed to reduce e-waste, as it would allow you to just buy a new charger instead of a new phone if the cable destroys itself.

    I know I’ll get roasted here but I’m almost fine with soldered SSD and let me explain why. I personally have every computer backed up on daily basis in the cloud (and not because it can fail, mostly because it can get stolen, lost etc.) so IF the SSD would fail I’ll just get a repair and download backup (just like I’d replace the SSD - I’d still have to mess with bringing back data) and it’s very simple with the Time Machine (or similar software). I get it that if I could replace SSD myself it would be done quicker. The only real aspect that bothers me is not being able to easily upgrade it (but still, what’s a problem with buying more storage at first?). But even with that, it’s recommended to have important files on external drives too (especially if you move between computers). And guys, I really get it that there are many people that CARE about being able to replace SSD easily - that’s just my opinion.
