An interesting comparison is formula 1 cars. Peak performance and parts that can be changed in seconds while still running. Even average modern cars have hundreds of parts that a lay person can reach with simple tools. Apple are obviously making a trade off (close it down for reduced size and better weather/water sealing) but then they don't get to pretend to be an environmentally concious company as that is antithical to their design goals.
- ohgodplsno 5y agoThat's kind of a bad argument, considering that an F1 engine will be absolutely _fucked_ and needs to be thrown away after 2000 km. That said, the previous poster's argument is terrible and gluing a phone is not what allows """peak performance"""
- kaba0 5y agoGluing is the least of the problem - as others mentioned, it can be easily resealed, and I very much prefer my phone surviving a bit of water.
- have_faith 5y agoIt was more a comment about their ability to have parts replaced, but you're right that the analogy has many flaws.
