They're saying the smartphone market is too homogenous and there should be more options so that people actually have a choice in the device they buy.

If it was outselling the main model every year then they’d keep making them small.
Why would they do that if they make more money on the main model? It's not like you have a choice in iOS manufacturers.
Maybe because people aren't given a choice as everything is dictated by the manufacturers.
Slapping 10 year old hardware into a phone with a small screen is a guaranteed way to make people not buy your phone but that doesn't mean people don't want small screens, headphone jacks, replaceable batteries, etc. They just don't want the garbage manufacturers lump in with these great features so that these phones don't cut into their high-margin device sales.
Replacing SMT components would fall outside of repairability for 99.99999% of people. More realistically things like ports, screens, and batteries should be replaceable since they're typically connected to the main board with cables. Furthermore ICs going back on a phone is probably extremely rare while the above mentioned items are very common failure points.
Unfortunately phone itself is not impressive especially from OS update standpoint
I swear to god manufacturers do this on purpose so that they can point to the low volume of sales and claim "See! People don't really want these features" when in reality they've just slapped a couple good features onto a completely dog shit device.
I absolutely loved Rubber but never delved into this guys other work. Not only is he a director, writer, and cinematographer, but also a DJ? What a crazy life path.
I'm pretty sure this is a woman though.
I think you'll want to look into Wake On LAN to do this. I can't give you instructions (tried once unsuccessfully on a Windows installation) but that should be enough to get you started.
Is it possible that you're just following too close if you feel these new turn signals aren't fast enough for you to react?
Your data is only half the story though. What would your air quality meter be reading if you were cooking with an electric stove?
I think you guys are looking to deeply and it was just a joke about the burnt hedge being replaced with a flammable fence (vinyl).
What edge cases are you referring to? Screen size doesn't matter if the resolution is the same.
