  07-10-2021 20:18 via thenextweb.com
  
  It is an unfortunate truth that most modern gadgets — and the companies that make them — are hostile to consumer repairs. Not only are gadgets designed in a way that practically forces people to buy a replacement for even simple repairs, but companies often actively make changes to inhibit repair by consumers and third-party repair services.

And there will be more next year and more the year after that. That’s what the status quo looks like in smart gadgets. If you got a smart TV for your

  The Australian-made space weather satellite CUAVA-1 was deployed into orbit from the International Space Station on Wednesday night.
