@GreenSky what about things designed not to be fixed? Or parts that cannot be repaired?

@zim2918 @GreenSky They're saying stuff should be designed to be fixable. Broken parts should be replaceable and the replacement parts should be cheap and easy to get.

@walangsalapi @GreenSky integrated circuits aren’t fixable and aren’t necessarily easy to get. Batteries only have so many charging cycles in them.

I think your fixable category is limited to mechanical devices made out of metal or wood. Even fabrics wear thin

@zim2918 @GreenSky The manifesto is saying parts should be easily replaceable. There's also no reason that batteries can't be replaced, unless you're a company like Apple and glue them in or brick your device if you open it.

@walangsalapi @zim2918 Anyway: Apple do recycle their products totally.
