What are you talking about? Its not like the iPad shuts off as soon as year 9 rolls around. The iPad still runs and can be used for many more years.

Apps aren't updated. Web browsing is unsafe.

In your other comment you laid out potential uses for a "unlocked" ipad

  web browser 
  IoT control panel
  video conferencing
  photo frame
  e-reader
  kiosk
The bottom 5 don't really need updates and if Android tablets are anything to go by (looking at you Nexus 10) arguably will work better running on top Apple software instead of whatever half baked garbage gets dumped out of the major distros or "custom rom" makers.

For web browsing, a nine year old tablet will arguably be slow as molasses for the content that would be on the web nine years from now. We have seen this with using old desktop computers to browse the web.

Your argument is pretty weak. There is a whole lot of work to make this happen among not only Apple but the OSS community for almost no gain. The community's time time would be better spent getting fundamentals of Linux Desktop working well so that maybe one day in our lives it really will be the Year of the Linux Desktop™.

A plurality of Western media is far-far-left leaning.

I was at the most recent CCC conference and there was a discussion on "Spotting tech fictions as replacement for social and political change". What I heard was the same line of thinking I had heard since the COP21 Paris Climate Conference 10 years ago. The solution is to push the green agenda through activism and pressuring politicians/corporations to enact sweeping motions. During this talk, they discussed pushing p…

I recall speeches by British celebs in the late 90s when this sort of thing first became fashionable. Some lady told a huge crowd that they need to unplug their kettles. You are not serious people. But I'm sure it feels great to sit around at conferences and discuss "pushing people to take the bus". Heck, it is a whole industry unto itself, isn't it? P.S. - I do think climate change is a serious issue. Figured I'd me…

Out of curiosity, what do you think should be done to mitigate the climate issue?

I personally believe in engineering solutions that are better than the current solutions. With the collapse in prices for EVs, I am drooling over these super cheap electric cars and hope to one day have a backup used car just for fun trips around town. Or maybe just pick up a single long range EV for a little bit more. Right now the repair market is still in its early stages but its getting there. I dream of owning a single EV model that lasts me for 30 years powered by solar. Plus the cost of electricity is trending towards 0. I am always trying to find ways to swap out my lifestyle with something more efficient. Am I an outlier, yes but I see technical solutions coming to the mass market and I remain optimistic a tiny bit.

I was shopping for a phone some time ago. iP14 Pro had always-on display while non-Pro version didnt. Apple justified it by non-Pro having lcd, while Pro having Oled. Next year iP15, both non-Pro and Pro have Oled, but again only Pro has always-on display. Honestly that is the reason I am still on my Note9, and looking for another Android. I understand what product segmentation is, and probably I am minority, but dam…

> Apple justified it by non-Pro having lcd, while Pro having Oled. Where did Apple justified that?

In the iP14 keynotes it explained how the oled allows for always-on display.

It is no different than Windows Home, Professional, Workstation, Enterprise, Nano, Server,....

No, it is VERY different from Windows Home/Pro. Windows doesn't bar you from running custom code. Windows Home does not ship Hyper-V, but it allows you to run your own hypervisors just fine.

Not yet, see Win32 sandboxing efforts, bringing UWP security model to everyone.

Then you are missing out on all the cool additions that Apple introduced today. Things that are really tailored for the iPad.

Could you recommend an article or Apple web page listing those additions? Or name some here? Mark Gurman, long-time Apple journalist, didn't find any iPad-specific features, beyond AI/LLM features coming to all Apple platforms. Here's another article that lists "everything" announced at WWDC, which doesn't list any new iPad features, other than AI/LLM, https://techcrunch.com/2024/06/10/everything-apple-announced...

Just watch the darn video from this morning, its only 7 minutes long and you are using a device that is tailored for this very use case ha ha

FYI they even purposely made fun of themselves regarding the calculator app.

With the EU now going centre-right (and largely at the expense of Greens) their long-standing stance on eWaste (and similar consumer-oriented regulation) is likely to be casualty.

> The Left still holds majority

This is factually incorrect.

Summing the votes of all parties that could be considered left (Green, S&D and The Left) you get 224 seats, which is about 31% of the European Union Parliament.

Don't drool, it is unbecoming ;)

> Am I an outlier, yes

Nope, normcore to the max. You've been greenwashed.

Your EV won't run on Solar. The cost of electricity is not trending towards zero.

> I am always trying to find ways to swap out my lifestyle with something more efficient.

The best thing you could personally do is squeeze out a few hundreds thousands miles out of a third hand Honda Civic. Not that your personal lifestyle matters one iota.

What should be done? Enjoy life and if you want to promote anything at all promote engineering degrees for young people. And nuclear power.

A plurality of Western media is far-far-left leaning.

No, its not, measured by reach or influence.

Probably not by number of outlets, either, not that it would matter.

The dominant Western media position is center-right neoliberal corporate capitalist (unsurprisingly, reflect both the ruling class of Western society and, as its the same class, the class that predominantly owns corporations, including media corps.)
