"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Why did all of the manufacturers decide to prevent the battery from being detatchable at the same time? It almost has to be pressure from government no? There is no seeming legitimate reason they should change it as such.

I think this has less to do with government surveillance and much, much more to do with simple corporate greed.

If you can't replace the battery in your device, then your only choice is to buy a new one when the battery inevitably dies. Planned obsolescence in the age of portable tech.
