David & Andrew discuss planned obsolescence, the practice of designing products to need replacing sooner to net the manufacturer more money. Is it a devious plot to get us all to spend more & pollute the environment, or just technology progressing? In our Bad Usability Nightmare, Andrew collects meat from a pub car park.
Other things we talk about:
- 100 year old lightbulb - the "Centennial Light"
- HP ink cartridges not working after time
- TV upgrades, & the pointlessness of 8K
Links mentioned:
- Sonos speaker update sparks anger
- Boring Wikipedia definition of Planned Obsolescence
- The Phoebus cartel
