  • this isn’t at all what this example depicts, here there is actual information transfer.

    this depiction is actually just false, the light would send information faster than the stick, because in the stick information only travels as fast as speed of sound in the stick, which is why completely rigid objects don’t exist










  • the thing I don’t like about fairphone, just like any other phone, is that upgradability is still impossible. I wasn’t able to find any information about it when I checked, which is an indication that it’s not possible, otherwise they would probably use it as a marketing point

    I think the focus on fairphone is more on sustainability and repairability than upgradability

    maybe it’ll become possible with a future fairphone, or the mikrophone project, or another group

    smartphone manufacturers have almost no common standards, they are made to be bought and then disposed of instead of upgrading the specs

    it’s impossible to do stuff like upgrading ram which would be very easy on a computer, and every smartphone has a different cpu

    companies are doing their best to keep the open source guys out of the game, which in my opinion would solve a lot of the issues if this weren’t the case

    I want a smartphone without ios or android but just plain linux, which should be upgradable and durable, possibly with open source firmware and that kind of stuff
