I don't even... I'm no pilot, but if you don't know your airpseed, why not try to keep it constant? I mean, if you're flying successfully at some speed, you'll probably be fine if you keep it that way, right? Definitely don't try to climb like a maniac at 30+ degrees AoA up to and above the maximum altitude...

>muh planned obsolescence

You can buy commercial grade appliances which lasts orders of magnitude longer than consumer grade ones, the difference is they cost significantly more because in most cases the engineering required to make them last demands more complex manufacturing processes and/or more expensive components.

If you want a washing machine that will last decades with only basic maintenance then go buy the ones they use in laundromats/hospitals/hotels/etc, if you want a vacuum cleaner which will last then go buy the ones that commercial cleaners use, etc.

Many forms of planned obsolescence are amateur-tier and are easily fixed.

The audio mixing in these is especially disgusting. It feels as if the narrator's voice is trying to drill itself into one's skull, cushioned by the cuck music and minimalist video designed to pay attention for the viewer to enable maximum brainwashing.

Shit like that is a theme I've been noticing in shit-tier government sanctioned dubs of hollywood movies of the 80s-today in my home country, and later on the source material itselfbeginning with Spielberg films.

Compare these to Heinz Rühmann films of the 1930s and 40s, where scenes with characters talking in a room have a pleasantly fixed camera, moderate volume that accenuates dialogue without exagerrating it and no annoying background music ruining everything.

Since lifetime of a bulb depends on spiral thickness, it is really trivial to buy old incandescent bulb manufacturing line from ex-commie country some folks said, GDR washing machines worked for 25 years without breaking, this should be true for lightbulbs too, right?.

Tbh, I've noticed that cheap (under $15) LED-bulbs and even fluorescents work no longer than Osram incandescents from even 10 years ago. Electricity is still cheaper both economically and environmentally than shoving mercury-filled bulbs and semiconductor sandwich boards into trash/so-called-recycling them every 5 months and acquiring raw materials for their manufacturing, pure incandescent is made of glass, steel and tungsten. Not to mention, the CRI.

Well to be honest, I'd love all home appliances to have some sort of simple, open and well-documented input-output interface, 1wire or similar, nothing complex. Read data, send commands. Just for a sake of joining them in local network, conditioners, heaters, power meters and sensors, fridge that can be put in deep freeze cycle while you're shopping and lights that turn on when you're away to scare off thieves. Thanks dog, water and power meters are using non-proprietary standardized outputs in my country, therefore they already can be wired to a shit computer like Pi and display data on a screen as well as usage patterns. Not connecting them to le Cloud data centers for extensive "user experience" analytics of course. Because it really bugs me out how shitty modern appliances are still. All those unintuitive buttons and knobs, manual longer than vim manpages. You either get this, or some "smart" crap with wifi on-board and proprietary "app" to boil your kettle.

But maybe, in next universe.

>when things fail, they all fail differently

This fucking nigger. Fucking material properties are understood to be statistically variable. You design to the 'accepted' allowable stresses plus a small safety factor and your product will probably survive. Mill certs and raw material batch testing, systematic NDT and factory break-in will weed out any non-compliant or substandard samples, and warranty will cover the rest. Wear happens in predictable ways because most areas of engineering are well understood and design is done according to long-accepted best practices.

This consumer-tier faggot cloud data acquisition is a fucking meme that microsoft is trying to push to capitalize on the trends inside large industrial companies.

GE for example does this with their Predix platform, in which industrial, commercial and infrastructure equipment feeds data back and allows the operator to see failures coming or tailor their outages to balance the pre-emptive maintenance cost vs overhault cost. In a power plant, airplane engine or MRI machine, this makes sense because a failure will affect a large number of users and cost the operator 6 or 7 figures to repair, in a washing machine or typical disposable consumer product, it's a fucking botnet designed to monitor use and engineer consumer behavior.

How do you improve the user experience at the consumer level? Microsoft's idea is infinite data acquisition that is easy to sell and misuse. The correct answer is to build a better product using tried and true designs not ones reliant on faggot chink ICs to compensate for the cheap shitty materials engineered to fail so they can squeeze out every last fraction or a percent of savings with a 3-5 year replacement cycle.

My appliances came with the house. They are from the early 70s, older than I am. I've had to replace a couple of belts in the washer and dryer, descale the washer, and in the fridge's case replace some hoses and top it up with refrigerant. The stove needed a new capacitor for the fluorescent lamp and a new oven element. Easy maintenance anyone can do, or a technician can do for cheap. I dread the day when a critical component fails because the spares are generally nonexistent, but all told these fucking things don't owe anyone anything, they have provided decades of service. When they do, i'll have to look at which brands aren't fucking chink-built trash.

Thanks for the tip! :^) Nice to see someone using the SJWberry to do something so practical & useful.

You could also do the dump from a fresh toner cartridge, then upload the saved copy or patch when you refill.

This would work in more complex cases where it isn't a simple reset, but obviously runs the risk of bricking which doesn't really apply at your level anyway ;^). You've got yourself a local "Check your toner EEPROM for €20"-business.

The first hammer, sickle and star design was adopted by the Soviet Union in 18 April 1924. The swastika on a white circle over a red field was was already in use by the Nazi Party in 9 November 1923, with the Blutfahne being an example of it. So it can't be a discount version of it.

German socialist and labor movements often used plain red flags, while the later Völkish nationalist societies and the freikorps used the swastika as badges. National socialist, swastika on a red field.
