I use a Thermaltake Core V21. It holds 5 HDDs and you can hang hard drives from the top mesh panel holding up to 10-12 or so total.

Sure, I just showed you the report, you may draw your own conclusions upon reading it. But in my opinion they’ve long proven to be transparent and actionable when it comes to improving the industry, e.g. by co-founding the Fair Cobalt Alliance. And maybe they even had something to do with those changes in legislation, the EU itself seems to recognise as much…

a vague promise
“Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we collaborate with suppliers to develop improvement plans that are informed by detailed assessments and worker surveys.” p. 28
From their recently published annual(I think?) impact report. There’s a bit more detail under section 4.3, not crazy specific but definitely better than a vague promise imo.

Yeah it’s underrated for sure, good candidate for a ‘second chance’.
- Comment on Name an older anime you'd love to see make a full comeback? 1 month ago:
Hmmm, a number of very weird ones come to mind first…
- Shangri-la (2009)
- The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo (2006)
- El Cazador de la Bruja (2007)
- Real Drive: Sennou Chousashitsu (2008)
Maybe because I had too much time to watch obscure stuff back then, and I love me some rare animus. Then again, they all weren’t all that good, probably why they only had one season. And it’s all female-led sci-fi I just noticed, shows my preferences…
- Comment on Make dinosaurs weirder 1 month ago:
Prehistoric Planet, I say as an amateur. But from what little I read about it it’s pretty alright apparently, and most of the ‘wrong/we’re not sure about this bit’ things are listed on the wiki afaik.
Of course there’s much more scientific depth possible than a TV show, but it’s a start towards recreating the common notion of what dinosaurs may have looked like.

I’m guessing your supermarket uses those fog thingies? They’re not used everywhere, i.e. not all produce is wet.

Same, I’ve yeeted mine across the road and it’s still fine.
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 1 month ago:
Bought a repairable phone and only use a screen protector now. If it were to break it’s not that expensive a repair (never paid more than $500 for a phone anyways, seems ridiculous to me), and I’ve dropped it plenty of times and it hasn’t broken yet in nearly 4 years. Doesn’t seem necessary.

I already admitted a dongle is a compromise, I don’t like them, but don’t start claiming people are forcing you to buy Bluetooth headphones when they’re not.

Every quarter? This is why I asked what was meant by ‘a lot’. If you’re going to claim that the extra wear caused would be this extreme I’d like for that to be at least somewhat substantiated.

requires you to buy and use battery powered headphones
This is simply false though, we’d agreed that you are required to buy and use a dongle, and that this is an added inconvenience. But you are not required to switch to wireless headphones and your old cans haven’t suddenly become useless. People still have a choice between wired and wireless, wired has just become a little less convenient, that’s all. I completely agree with you that people shouldn’t go out buying new gadgets if their old stuff is still functional, but you can just continue using your old headphones if you get a new phone if you buy a dongle with it. Inconvenient yes, but not the end for wired headphones.

You lose them easily Just leave them connected to the headphones.
you can’t charge your phone if they’re connected Dongles with an additional usb port exist.
if you disconnect your headphones the device still behaves as if they’re plugged in. Again, leave the dongle connected to the headphones, not the phone.
It’s so much less convenient It is less convenient, but I’d argue not by all that much. More importantly it’s not any less convenient for the vast majority who are already only using Bluetooth.
there’s just no downside to having a dedicated headphone jack
- It’s an additional, and to most people superfluous, point for water ingress. Water damage is the most common type of damage in phones.
- It takes up space which could be utilised otherwise, like with a slightly larger battery or larger speakers or camera modules.
- It’s an additional part which needs to be manufactured, stocked, installed and purchased. Extra cost which only benefits a few. This is especially important to Fairphone in particular because they don’t use off-the-shelf components and promise to supply replacement parts pretty much indefinitely. I.e. Fairphone would have to design a custom module and then have that module in stock and manufactured specifically for them for the lifetime of each of their devices. That’s not a trivial expense.

expediates wear and tear on the port by a lot
How much is a lot? And good thing the usb-c port is a $15 user replaceable part then. Also dongles with two connectors exist if you specifically want to charge and use headphones at the same time.

I don’t bother with a case for this reason, haven’t broken anything so far. Just replaced the battery a couple times.

Do you happen to know whether this was before or after the camera update? The camera has been noticeably improved at some point.
