  1. Yes, large corporations will always have everything they need. They educate most of their employees themselves, already.

  2. Is that why you want 100W incandescent light bulbs back? Those were among the few devices that were designed that way.

  3. You don't have the schematics of your cars, either. Absolutely nobody gives you the source code in the engine electronics of your car. All you can do is to replace the entire box with an OEM version of the same box.

  4.  @PhosHodosLogos  You don't want to be the next Tesla. He was a crazy guy with little understanding of science. We have thousands of people who are just as good as Einstein, if not considerably better, but the problems have gotten much harder in physics.

  5.  @PhosHodosLogos  I was merely responding to the nonsense you wrote about Tesla and Einstein. Innovation is just fine. That you are not part of it is not my problem.

  6.  @PhosHodosLogos  Don't write nonsense and I will not respond by dressing you down.

  7.  @PhosHodosLogos I don't have Tourette's. Sorry, but my level is closed to you.

  8. Who said that these things are not patented?

  9. Similar schematics do not mean that the device hasn't been upgraded. There are many CPU chips that have retained exactly the same footprint and pinout but have been greatly upgraded over the years. Same for memory chips. 90+% of the world's operational amplifiers have had the same pinout for the last 40-50 years, but there is absolutely no comparison in performance between the first and the latest kinds of these devices.

  10.  @timemasterhms  There is no IP value in schematics. They can be reconstructed from the PCBs and the datasheets. So what do you need them for?

  11. OK, if you want to save the world, do NOT have kids. That's biggest damage you will ever do. Do NOT build a new house. Do NOT fly jets. Do NOT drive a car. Do NOT use an AC. Do NOT buy a big screen tv. It uses dozens of times as much materials as your phone. If you can't come up with a better way to save the world than keeping an old phone 2 years longer, then you are simply completely ignorant about how much damage you are really doing.
