#ConsumerDevices in general are shit:

  • You know how much #AntiRepairDesign I've seen with #Laptops? #Apple leads the pack but everyone copies all the bad things that make their #MacBook|s shit and none of the good things like an #OS that doesn't suck!

If I had to buy a #Laptop, I'd buy a @frameworkcomputer / #Framework13 #DIY, hands down cuz #Windows is a can't use & won't use no-go for me!

As of December 28, 2024, #smartphones, #tablets, and numerous other #ConsumerDevices that charge over a #cable will have to support #USBC charging to be sold in #Europe, meaning the clock is ticking on #Apple's #LightningCable.
