If that’s the solution… then the project has already failed.

Think you answered your own question there.
Mandated warranty periods. Pretty straight forward.
And they currently engineer product to have things fail right after their warranty expires, so, that’s not really a concern, since we’re already living with that.
We don’t feel the need to broadcast it, or make it part of our personality.
But don’t equate that to not knowing how to use or not owning them.
Right? All the little “misc/everything” stores disappeared.
Now if I want something isn’t 100% normie/mainstream, then I can’t find it in store anywhere.
I couldn’t even find thermal paste for a PC build in store anywhere.
Terrible? Yea. Awful? Yes. Unamerican? Absolutely.
Mind blowing? No… not at all.
Hence the “joke” part….
I moved from the U.S. to Germany in 2020.
My running joke since was wondering whether I’d be eligible for citizenship or asylum first….
Almost over the finish line for being eligible for citizenship, but I feel like asylum isn’t that far off.
lol, either France’s tracking data is different than everyone else’s, or wolves really respect the sovereignty of the French border.
Let’s not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Mandated warranty minimums and right to repair regulations are not mutually exclusive. We can do both, even if we don’t do them at the same time.
