     @meso The joke used to be that it was like buying a car with the hood welded shut. It is now basically that. Even if you crack it open, everything is soldered and epoxied in place. No user serviceable parts inside.

     @p @meso The battery itself is soldered to the motherboard.
     
     I've torn a few down before to salvage parts but even that is dubious. The ssd for example has a format that makes it near impossible to use anywhere else. Can't salvage the ram any more because it's integrated into the board as well.

     Apple is going to become just a solid box with no interchangeable parts - at least that's what the new M4 processor sounds like it's working towards

     @Soy_Magnus I believe dismantled a few apple devices.
     
     Though Elon's starlink is worse than that.
     It's mostly a glass box.

     There's enough to hate that I can understand; but if there's a specific complaint about Starlink I'm interested. I think LEO shit is so great, even if his company doesn't do well, it's going to solve undersea cable monopoly of networking.
