I miss my Civic EG Hatch. Best car I ever owned. For years I’ve looked for conversion kits to make my own EV out of an old rolling chassis.

This may be symptomatic of the issue being addressed. Would we be more willing to get the phone repaired if we felt more ownership of it? My hands are tied if the device was designed without repeatability in mind and the manufacturer has no intention of volunteering assistance - so I must complain. In our current system, we don’t have many options to choose from. I look forward to your thoughts.

Also I believe ‘bricked’ is a result of it becoming inoperable. Our devices aren’t easily repaired so they will become ‘bricked’ SOONER than if designed to run unlocked boot systems and OS’s. Feeling more ownership of your device may lead you to be more careful with it and only entrust it with reputable technicians.

This reminds me of an excellent short story over on r/writingprompts. It’s about how humans evolved in the harshest conditions as a forgotten experiment. They emerge and are basically gods.

I was JUST about to try out Manjaro. Are these ‘other issues’ a new thing or are you saying that because Manjaro is more of a departure from arch than endeavor is?

Thanks for the info. I’ll give endeavor at shot.

So I’m curious; why no headphones? When I listen to music from a speaker in open space, half of the sound is basically gone. My headphones are ~10x (not exaggerating) better than anything played at ‘mild inconvenience’ levels in public. I can also play it at an ear-safe volume because of ANC. Yes, they can start to hurt due to the arms on my glasses but that’s after 5-7 hours in a day.
