Because everyone in the supply chain is being paid a fair wage and not being exploited.

Based on what? Cost? The whole premise is sustainability and ensuring the people who build it aren’t working sweatshop workers like with every other major phone. I say this knowing full well I’m using one of those phones but Fairphone has only recently become available in my country.
So it depends on if you want a bad deal by parting with some extra dollars or it’s a bad deal for the workers that are getting exploited so you save a few dollars.
It allowed them to increase the IP rating, allows for simplified manufacturing, and easier maintainability and repairability.
How is not including it considered greenwashing (I notice you didn’t ask about that, so I assume you know the answer)?
I despise people repeating comments. How is making the device cheaper, more sustainable, and more reliable greenwashing? I would love anybody who just loves complaining about the headphones jack to explain that. No one else has. I doubt anybody complaining really cares about the environment either. What phone do you currently have?
For someone who gets paid hourly, I’m only willing to go so far with unpaid work past when I’m supposed to stop.
Fuck, I’ll look at code I wrote like a month ago and be like, “what was I thinking?”. So I try to fix it, run into some stupid issue and be like, “oh, right.”
And this is why comments are useful on code who’s purpose or reasoning isn’t super obvious or even looks counter intuitive.
Many people have phones without those radios. If they want that feature, it’s available to them right now via another device that is better suited to the task.
It doesn’t have to do with Star Trek. That’s just the name of the Lemmy instance that uploaded it. The community it’s uploaded to is [email protected].
They’ll never include it as it needs the headphone jack. Unless they expect a huge market for radio, that is big enough for them to offer a mea culpa and give back head phone jacks, it’s never going to happen.
Would people love to get headphone jacks back? I’m sure. But I don’t see the market being there to get companies to give in on that.
Do these chips have AM radio? Otherwise it’s not that useful for emergencies.
I’d rather a wind up radio for emergencies as opposed to wasting the battery life on the one thing I can use to call for emergency services.
Edit: also, who uses FM in emergencies. You want AM radio for that.
The shows don’t really exist anymore. At least not in my area. Well over a decade ago they were all replaced by playlists and commercials.
What timeless issues?
That’s great for the future. But the government needs to operate prior to that time. If there is no speaker, then there’s no vote for keeping the government open past mid November
It’s not good for those who live in the US. A speaker needs to be elected before they can pass anymore funding.
Because spying on you is bad. They mention the privacy implications in the article.
Space forecaster? “Today there will be mostly nothing with a small chance of satellite showers in the evening. And when is the evening? I don’t know. It’s space.”
Over the top is the correct way and I will die* on this hill.
I think you’re missing a glaring obvious issue there. It’s right there. Just look a little harder.

This post has devolved into shit and filled with a bunch of whiners complaining about the same dumb shit that isn’t a goal of this phone. Might as well whine the new iPhone doesn’t cost under $400 for as reasonable of a complaint anything on this post is.
