@theworkethic Give it a couple years. Elon will be dodging the bill for battery disposal, along with all the other auto makers, and the government will bail them all out. All the worst pollution is government-approved, i.e., government-mandated, as force is what government is and does.

@logosrisingbear It is kind of insane. For the manufacturers and OS vendors, it's also rather predatory, even malignant, when on the one hand, the consumer is shamed every day for their carbon footprint or other nonsense, but the products available are PURPOSELY wasteful. It's criminal, or at least amoral.

@thebandofbastards4934 They wouldn't go out of business. They just wouldn't be able to grow obscenely large and rake in obscene profits. It's terrible for the people and the planet. I kind of need a smart phone for work, but I'm ready to go back to a flip phone. It's nice to have mobile coms, but that phone should be the last thing you're fussing with 90% of the day.
