Louis is holding himself back here, he normally talks 1.5x this speed, or 2x this when something ticks him off. They also probably cut out one or two "Apple can suck my m** f** balls!"

The technical and industry aspects are well-reasoned, but what truly delighted me is the suggested joyful approach to activism.

It's kinda weird to see Louis Rossmann is so polite and calm...... I like it better when he ranting though...... again, where's blackberry.... ?!?!?

Hi guys, I first watched the Coldfusion video, but this one came out earlier. Well, am here now 🙂 It's so important what Louis has been pushing, him and a few others are really pushing this topic for years now, be it home electronics, tractors, cars or so many other products. Thanks for the great collab, nice! Cheers 👍💪✌

Srsly needs a wikipedia like page of brands and products that are anti consumerism so we can vote with our wallets! like sweet baby inc detected (on steam) but for hardware.

@gulagamelee4804 Ай бұрын

easier to make a website featuring companies that are pro consumer since that list is way shorter

@johnyepthomi892 Ай бұрын

There is a reason it doesn’t exist. It’s always going to be a question of who’s recommending it and its back to square one again. But there should be one from Rossmans, because he has more credibility than anyone I know that care about this stuff.

I just found out both of this channel and how the voice of coldfusion actually looks like, man.. I know that specific british accent predominantly used by immigrant, for some reason I imagined a thin european dude with english as 2nd language who picked british accent 😂

In terms of when and how it started, I believe it was Apple. My first awareness was the iPod. I could replace the battery in my Creative Zen. My friend could not replace the battery in his iPod. That was the first time they had a big enough monopoly to lean in to their anti-consumer tactics. (A monopoly they got not by designing a better device but by preventing competitors buying the small harddrives, so their device had to be larger.) I swore off Apple then and there, and have never regretted it.

I don't have an issue with it. KZfaq demonetizes and reduces the reach of videos with cursing. Personally, I think it would've been better just to do jump-cuts.

The thing is; Mercedes almost gone bankrupt because they build too good cars; customer base ended, no spare parts needed. What could they do? The issue of Right to Repair and durability of products has a root in business models. We would have to pay for durability and right to repair. How? Subscription? How do we incentivize it?

@jonathanloganmoran Ай бұрын

Subscription model, clearly. You really think Apple isn’t already profiting significantly off those US$9.99/month iCloud Storage / Apple Music / etc. plans? Not to mention the absurd markup they bake into all their retail products… US$200 keyboards, anyone?

@grzegorzkapica7930 Ай бұрын

@@jonathanloganmoran I think Apple's model is a bit unfair; they ask you to buy their devices and pay for subscriptions. While this could look like this; you subscribe, so you get a phone. May be some payment is needed, so people would not throw the phone into sand or against walls, but the majority should be payed with subscription.

@5GIlYsq2fmZYv8pIAnR2b6jiu Ай бұрын

Louis it would fit the podcast better if you look at the interviewer instead of at the camera. I know its different because you normally record your own videos but it makes the podcast a bit weird to watch.

@blackrifle6736 Ай бұрын

*WTF kind of a question is that? Louis is looking at the camera and laptop display. They are literally six to fifteen time zones apart. Louis in his upstairs studio in Austin, TX and CF is (presumably) somewhere in Oz or UK.*

25:13 there is a 1 excuse, and that being that smartphones are within EMF range of the user almost always, so a bad fix could literally induce cancer or some other illness. Granted, this is a rare case, and shouldn’t stop all the good aspects of right to repair, but I am 100% certain when right to repair goes through there will be some genius that repairs something and then the user will want to sue the manufacturer for damages of long term exposure to that bad repair. Again, it is a less than .0001% chance it will happen, but extrapolated over millions of users it will happen, and they will want to sue the manufacturer instead of the repair guy, and odds are that the manufacturer will have to pay that lawsuit to save face. There definitely should be pairing authentication to avoid these sorts of unjustified lawsuits, but the pairing shouldn’t be such that it legit bricks the software. It should be a simple 1 time message upon turning on letting the user know that manufacturer is no longer liable for potential lawsuits due to a repair that was done from a 3rd party. There is a sweet spot for these matters, for sure. It’s annoying that they take parasitic approach instead of the consumer friendly approach. 😓

@tom.m Ай бұрын

Cars are far more dangerous and people are allowed to fix those. Automakers aren't going broke fighting lawsuits from people who went to a bad mechanic. This is exactly the kind of nonsense the manufacturers try to spread.
