    EshanKumar got a reaction from Delicieuxz in India launches Right to Repair portal, all companies must upload Spare parts, service manuals   
    Summary
    Indian minister of Consumer Affairs (Govt. Of India), Mr. Piyush Goyal, launched the Right to Repair Consumer portal. All companies selling goods in India will have to upload details like service manuals, links to space parts, etc. On this portal. 
    The link is: https://www.righttorepairindia.in/

    This portal will also serve as a mechanism to register complaints against device manufacturers. It will also be a great tool for those living outside India, helping them access service manuals, guides, etc. It has just launched, so compliance might take a while. But I am glad to see more countries taking the direction of right to repair.

    Well, currently this is being formulated a s a government policy, based on a Supreme Court Case (Shri Shamsher Kataria versus Honda Siel Cars Limited & Ors.) Which said:

    One should also remember that as India is a developing country, there are millions of roadside repair technicians & mechanics whose livelihoods depend on small repairs. I'm quite sure the government is trying to appease this voter base, but in the process, consumers will win.
     
    "Perfect is the enemy of good." I'm not saying it is the perfect method of achieving right to repair, but it's a good beginning. And this centralised portal with manuals from major corporations will also help those out of India.

    EshanKumar got a reaction from Zando_ in Dell's new Ryzen AIO a good deal? Or build a similarly specced PC?   
    This Dell Ryzen AIO's Ram, CPU and HDD can be upgraded. Only the Graphics card can not. But that does not matter as it will not be used for gaming. As RYZEN does not have an iGPU, there is a graphics card present. And this not being a personal rig and a office PC (I had mentioned, this will be setup in a designer's office) will not be upgraded for atleast 2-3 years, when it may be completlely replaced or handed down to the receptionist/accountant. I wouldn't be overclocking the personal rig either as stability is CRUCIAL for me as my work directly impacts the designer's public image and even a minor unexpected shutdown could result in hours of work being lost (Yes, i spend around 1.5-2 hours tweaking and editing each of the shortlisted images and make them ready for publication)

    EshanKumar got a reaction from Daniel Z. in That awkward movement when Porsche Design Book One is cheaper than Surface Book and MacBook "Pro"   
    For all those people shouting out that $2495 is not worth it for a convertilbe without a dGPU and we are paying a premium for the "Porsche Design" Logo,
    The Surface Book with similar specs and a dGPU is $205 higher than the Surface Book with the iGPU.
    The MacBook "Pro" 13 inch is available with only iGPU where as the 15 inch is available with dGPU (The Radeon Pro 460, NOT to be confused with the RX 460)
    Both Surface Book and MacBook "Pro" are still using Skylake where as Book One is using Kaby Lake.
     
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/d/surface-book/8TXJ08Q9LXDT/BW3T?icid=Surface_cat_BookSubNav - Surface Book with the dGPU $2699
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/d/surface-book/8TXJ08Q9LXDT/BW3T?icid=Surface_cat_BookSubNav - Surface Book with the iGPU $2499
    https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=MNQF2LL/A&step=config# - MacBook Pro (13 inch specced similarly $2499) [Has iGPU]

    http://www.porsche-design.us/Men/Smartphones-Sound/Computing/Porsche-Design-Book-One.html - Porsche Design Book One $2495
     
    That makes the Porsche Design Book One $4 cheaper than it's competitors. And one must not forget that Book One is using Kaby Lake where as others are still using Skylake.
    Oh, btw, those $4 matter because i can use them to get a nice chocolate bar.
