    As a car guy, hearing about how electronics are getting so screwed up makes me very sad of what could've been. In the car industry, we have the multi billion dollar aftermarket industry that is dedicated to making cars as free as possible for owners to tune and modify and as for electronics, if they're too complicated, it's always possible to throw everything out and replace it with a programmable ECU. So no matter what, if your car is worth it, the aftermarket will find a way. And EVs are also being modified with aftermarket EV swaps and swapping AWD motor systems into base model Teslas for example (Like Rich Rebuilds). So when Right to Repair is questioned we have BIG car organizations like SEMA and the whole aftermarket car industry lobbying against companies who want to abolish right to repair. Not to mention, many executives in automotive companies themselves were/are tinkerers who want to keep wrenching on their cars so they at least understand the importance of right to repair. Not sure what it means specifically about electronics but you have a LOT more support than you think, even with lobbyists :)

      the right to repair and all of that for me, is something that i fully support, but fun thing with the EV marked, i do some times understand companies, f.ex. if you modify the battery pack, you are charging with a lot of KW´s and an error can create an explosion on a charge station, and the fun thing here is, then it is "TESLA" or that EV company that has to defend them selves, because it is their car, even though the owner modified it outside spec. examples are also owners complaining about subaru´s gearboxes constantly, well if you pulling 400+hp through a gearbox build for 250ish , then it will go wrong. does not make the car a defective piece of junk.. just makes it buildt for a certain spec.

      @@TheRasmusdc At this point I believe Tesla should really help owners who want to modify their cars. Every other car manufacturer has racing divisions and they offer factory performance upgrades for the cars after all. Of course, if you touch the engine, you will void the warranty and thus, absolve the company's responsibility to damages.
      I think it should be ok for Tesla to disable FSD if the owner decides to touch the powertrain of their cars. If I were modifying my Tesla that extensively, I think tesla factory support for modification like schematics, guides, etc. would be worth it in exchange for them protecting their company from liability from whatever I do.

    Oh cool, I've never been the first one here before. I'll edit this later when I have something substantial to say
    EDIT: It really amazes me how impossible Apple goes out of their way to make it to service these machines. There's a reflection of this on the software side as well; they've slowly been moving more and more towards their desktop/laptop OS being just as locked down as their phones. Now, I'm a proponent of jailbreaking and open-source operating systems on mobile devices (I plan to get a Pinephone as soon as they're readily available/usable); but I can understand the need, desire, and positives of a locked down mobile OS. On Desktops/Laptops, however? No thank you. Imagine if the C64 could only run signed code, there's no way we would be living in a world that even slightly resembles what we have today. It's absurd, and I don't understand how Apple has lost their way in terms of supporting open, community developed software.

    Another industry doing the same exact thing(no right to repair) is RC modeling. When you buy an aircraft, you really need to buy two copies because what few parts are available will be gone in a year. With the number of crashes (not me) it is impossible to fix these aircraft. It all ends up in the landfill. This was a hobby originally build on guys building models from balsa wood. They were very ware capable of fixing the damage. Now the hobby is just buying, crash, buying and buying again. Some of these models can be several thousand dollars. I have a couple that are over $3K. Not being able to get parts makes me a fabricator. I have milling machines, lathes, and 3D printers. Even then, sometimes it does not pay to fix.

    27:00 Those pull down resistors handle the I2C addressing for the chip. The pin might be named DEBUG whatever but the chip itself uses the pin for other purposes as well. Not sure if the board communicates with the CD3215's over I2C but if it does then they would each need a separate address. Also, those resistors may determine master/slave as well which means it may not know whether to look for the flash chip or to expect a master CD3215 to give it it's programming.

      Apple uses sweatshops in China to build its products.
      Sweatshops are good for Foxconn (and for Apple), but not for workers.
      An undercover journalist reports on the horrible conditions in the Foxconn factory that makes iThings: still horrible in 2012.
      Foxconn closed schools and forced the students to work building iThings.
      Working conditions at Apple's other Chinese suppliers are even worse than in Foxconn.
      Today's Apple Pegatron sweatshops are even nastier than the Foxconn sweatshops it used before.
      Just because you're not pregnant, should that make it ok to require you to work 11 hours a day, 6 days a week? Apple is culpable if its products are made by people working a longer workweek than is allowed in the US.
      Mistreatment of workers making Apple computers continues in 2014.

      @DarrellVermilion 3 года назад +1

      It's not _usually_ which ones have the most issues--it's which ones are impossible (or nearly impossible) to fix. The number of crappy products that roll out each year that are still _fixable_ is really astonishing, but people usually tend to *notice more* when the cost of repair quite literally approaches the cost of replacement.
      Having said that, the best macbooks were probably the titanium models from the early 2000s. Those things were as reliable as they were ᴛʜɪᴄᴄ.

    THIS is intentional and anti-consumer design.
    Why wouldn't they just have a single cd3215.... and then each usb controller can just detect a charger, and then turn on a mux to switch to a cd3215....
    Why does a port on ONE side of the board.... care about another port?
    That's absolutely asinine.
    This is why we need some kind of change that punishes companies, with large taxes, if a device that uses a ton of resources to produce, is not repairable / reliable / reasonably diagnosable. If it costs the company more to design 4 points of failure, vs one, they'd change their ways (unless the benefit of more dead devices and people rebuying outweighs the tax).
    I just hate how it's more economic for EVERY company to produce less repairable shit while we struggle to produce chips. Meh.
