I’ve been told by my 20yo classmates that glazed = covered in cum = good and that washed = to be clean of cum = bad.

Agreed. It all goes downhill after 25.

Troll 2…?

Wealthiest country in the world, everyone.

They’d enslave us for pure processing power, that’s for sure.

You’ve clearly never tried to fix anything at least within the last decade.

When things are glued and there are no exposed screws, this means that you can’t replace parts and it means that in order to get inside to see what broke, you need to break it open very carefully. This means that in most cases, they break beyond repair and force you to buy a new one.

If you can break it open carefully, because everything is glued in (or in some cases just punched in during manufacture), you can’t replace anything because there’s nothing you can mount the new part to.

Phones are not appliances; they’re electronic devices and are much more complicated BUT should be repairable, as they used to be back in the 90s.

And have you seen the inside of a device that’s glued in? It is definitely NOT water tight. The glue is hard and cracks, and the purpose of the glue is not for IP, but to just keep the part in place and save 2c on each screw.

But I digress… Check out IFixit. Hopefully after going through some points on what the benefits are for right to repair, you’ll change your stance on this.

Well, they worked forever because you could get them fixed. They will break down but you could repair them yourself or get it repaired. Unsure about whitegoods, but small appliances these days are expected to end up in landfill; no exposed screws and everything is glued in.

Well, unless he’s going around saying that he inherited all this money but wants people to think he earned it, your friend is in the clear.
