Be nice too if Japan passed a law allowing users to sideload batteries. Apple’s greatest sin in my book was sealing up batteries in the ipod and should of been outlawed at the very beginning. What a waste. I still keep my LG V20 because of replaceable batteries and a nice dac. The thing is it’s not in a landfill.

Another thing Japan can do is as long as there is a minimum user base(to be determined, maybe 25-50%?) still using a device then security updates at a minimum has to be available. It should be up to the buyer’s if they want to buy a new phone, not the manufacturers. This would save a lot of resources and toxins entering the environment. To I expect this kind of thing? No. My kind of work before retirement was resource extraction, so I seen the damage it does first hand. I realize that these resources are necessary in a modern society, but dam throwing away good stuff so a company can pad there shareholders portfolios is really a bad thing to do.

I stopped commenting on Reddit and deleted my account but if a search result had some info I needed on Reddit I would still go there to read but not comment. But ya, a while back they started blocking me because of vpn usage. So I started blocking them out of any search results. It works both ways. Thanks for letting me know my suspicions were correct JimmyPicket. But that is how I ended up here.

I have gotten so advertising adverse in my old age that I no longer listen to or watch radio, cable TV, magazines or any of the “old” media that I grew up with. It has gotten to the point that my mind revolts to hearing them or seeing them. It’s like smelling shit and to be expected to find that entertaining. So good luck Google, if it comes down to it I will turn off the internet if ads become mandatory(advertising creep) the same as I have done with any other forms of advertising supported media. Edit: I do donate to sites that are user supported.
