Instead of the battery dying and you throwing your phone away, it just happened that the battery died, and you searched for a compatible one, that either didn’t exist or cost 70% of the price of a new phone, so you threw your phone away.
Now, if you want to talk about standard battery sizes, I’m listening.
It was extremely useful when it was more common than non-replaceable batteries. Most of the time, you could find a better battery than the stock one at a cheaper price.
As someone who frequently changed their phone batteries and bought spares you are talking out your whole ass about their lack of availability and price, you just made up some shit then justified your argument with your made up shit.
Lemmy: “I want my removable batteries and headphones jacks!”
Manufacturers: “Are you willing to pay more because nobody else wants that and there’d be extra engineering costs to keep it to spec on things like water resistance?”
Lemmy: >:[ proceedes to buy it anyways and complain about it being so much bigger than other phones “I don’t have giant hands!”
Lemmy users want something -> some money whre decides that strawmans must be applied to fix their sht Perspektive of the world (news flash phones don’t habe to be so enourmus and Thema beging a tad bit thicker is structurally beneficial and not gonna annoy anyone except for people with unusable small pockets that can’tfitt keys)
Yeah people act outside of their own self interest all the time, it’s why things get regulated in the first place and one of the reasons the invisible hand of the market is a myth.
It’s a pain. I love replaceable batteries too. It took me hours to change mine on my pixel. But why is it hard to get out: phones are slimmer and processor more. So you need to get the battery wedged in there and properly thermally insulated. It’s a lot harder to do that while also making it easily field replaceable
Biography Not even the oldest or wisest of the gods knows Thoth’s true origin. Thoth can not remember the earlier part of his existence. He knows that he was very different and there is something in the back of his mind, but he just can’t remember. Thoth symbolizes wisdom, knowledge, and invention. Yet, despite his learning and knowledge, there is a bit of larceny in his heart, for he admires cunning, deception and people who use their wits and a quick tongue. Thus, he is the patron of magic, and of all fast speaking, thieving, quick-witted creatures. Thoth himself is a great orator, scholar, and author of many books about magic and history. Books about magic circles, symbols, wards, magic spells, a study of alchemy, an alchemy recipe book, and many others are among his credits. He writes all of his books in a secret code (hieroglyph and runes), although a few have been stolen and translated. Legend attributes Thoth as the inventor of rune magic, the runic alphabet, Diabolism and wards, pyramid magic, and all the sciences. He is cursed with eternal curiosity and cannot remember the days of his youth. Thoth is one of the few beings who has a complete knowledge of rune magic and it is he who has constructed many of the greatest rune weapons in the possession of the gods of Ma’ip, both good and evil. He is constantly experimenting, exploring or investigating something. Just about any magic device or component, herb, potion, magic component and the exotic are available to Thoth. He has dozens of magic wands, staves, enchanted cauldrons, manacles, amulets, books, and many other things of magic in his massive personal collection. Thoth also has a small zoo, and books and artifacts from dozens of different civilizations.
