Then it needs to be a law so there is no choice for chip manufacturers.

We absolutely should. And it should be legally required for manufacturer to support it for at least 5-6 years. So much less e-waste...

From my own experience, keep it. Maybe replace paracord with nice chain. It prevents from losing the wallet in the first place, once it is lost it's a much bigger problem...

RF part is also power hungry; the chip they use for example uses 15mA during receiving.

The fact GPS satellites are 20k km away Weak signal, small antenna, high gain, lots of current to run amplifiers. And you need to keep receiving signal to get the position, not just enable it for a second then disable

It really is not. Any connector which puts springy bits inside of the device and not the cable is automatically worse. The only reason lightning connectors don't break as often is because cable relief falls apart before it.

Propane is also used in some new fridges and in heat pumps. I remember some fridge manual where it said minimum room size because they basically did the calculation "if it escapes and room is at least that big, it won't be stoicho

You put a bigger buffer tank and you heat it over time. 25kw/hr boiler isn't working all the time. That boiler is also often sized to just heat a lot of water for shower/etc so the power is oversized "just" for heat

One of interesting-if-too-expensive methods I've seen was basically having gas powered heat pumps. IIRC It was basically using normal gas engine to move the coolant around but it also used heat produced by engine to heat the coils on t
