In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
Putting on a screen protector makes me feel like I’m the protagonist in an action film trying to disarm a bomb. One wrong move and the entire thing is fucked. I could wipe the screen down isopropyl a dozen times, inspect it another two dozen times and see there is nothing there. But then the moment I try to put that screen protector on, there is somehow a life time supply of fuzz and specs of bullshit on there that I notice while I already have the thing halfway applied. So that distracts me trying to get that shit out of there and now my protector is going on crooked and I get a bubble or two. I just can’t ever get it right.
