Podcast appearances and mentions of kyle wiens

Kyle Wiens is the co-founder of iFixit, the international repair community known for open-source repair manuals and product teardown. Kyle is also one of my circular economy heroes! Since it started back in 2003, iFixit has empowered hundreds of millions of people to repair their broken stuff. Kyle led the international coalition that legalized Right to Repair, has testified before the US Congress and the International Trade Commission, and he is helping to develop global environmental standards. Kyle brings us up to speed on how iFixit has evolved over the last two decades, in its reach, offer and engagement. We talk about why we've ended up with so many products that are not designed to last and are hard – or impossible to repair, and why things are changing for the better. Kyle explains the importance of the Right to Repair legislation that's being rolled out, how brands that don't get on board risk losing out, and explains why we need much more information about product durability and repairability. We discuss some of the ways that brands can improve the design and durability of their products, and how iFixit can help them with that, and he offers a simple suggestion to help us all make better buying choices.

In our 100th episode, we speak to four trailblazers of repair including, Martine Postma, Kyle Wiens, Cristina Ganapini and Mathew Lubari. The post Restart Podcast Ep. 100: Trailblazers of repair appeared first on The Restart Project.

There’s a movement to make it possible to repair our gadgets ourselves instead of having to send them back to the company that makes them or, you know, just get a new one. The “right to repair” movement in consumer electronics has made real gains in recent years. Several states, like California, New York and Oregon, have passed legislation requiring it. And it looks like Apple’s newest iPhone — the 16 — has made strides in that department. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Kyle Wiens, CEO of the online repair guide iFixit, about the iPhone 16’s improved repairability.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has made headlines for being picked as Vice President Kamala Harris's running mate. One underreported aspect of his record is signing Minnesota's first “right to repair” law last year. The bill took effect last month.The concept sounds simple enough: if you buy something like a phone or a car, you should have the right to fix it. But as our world becomes more digitized, doing it yourself, or having your devices repaired by third-party mechanics or cell phone shops, can be complicated. Everything from opening a car door to adjusting your refrigerator can now involve complex computer code, giving manufacturers more control over whether, and how, devices can be repaired. Frustrations over this dynamic sparked the “right to repair” movement, which advocates for legislation to require manufacturers to provide parts, tools, and guides to consumers and third parties. While powerful companies like John Deere and Apple have cited cybersecurity and safety concerns with farmers and iPhone users tinkering with their devices, right-to-repair advocates say irreparability undermines consumer rights, leads to higher prices and worse quality, and harms small businesses that provide third-party repair services.As more states continue to adopt and debate these laws, which industries will be impacted? And will the federal government consider imposing the policy nationwide? Evan and Luke are joined by Kyle Wiens, perhaps the most vocal proponent of the right to repair in the U.S. Wiens is the co-founder and CEO of IFixit, which sells repair parts and tools and provides free how-to-guides online. Read Kyle's writing on repair rights and copyright in Wired and his article in The Atlantic on how his grandfather helped influence his thinking. See Luke's piece in Reason on how the debate impacts agriculture.

This week Adam went solo — talking to Kyle Wiens, Founder and CEO at iFixit, about all things Right to Repair. They discussed the latest win here in the US with Oregon passing an electronics Right to Repair law to allow owners the right to get their stuff fixed anywhere as well as limit the anti-repair practices of parts pairing. They also discussed the history of the DMCA, the challenges posed by Section 1201, the challenges of recycling products with glued-in batteries, the need for producer responsibility, the future of repairability, repair scoring systems to inform consumers, and so much more. Did you know that iFixit funds its advocacy work through the sale of its tools and parts? So cool.

Guest Kyle Wiens Panelist Richard Littaueropen-source Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! Richard is in Portland at FOSSY, the Free and Open Source Software Yearly conference that is held by the Software Freedom Conservancy. In this exciting episode, Richard welcomes Kyle Wiens, the driving force behind iFixit, a large open source collection of user-generated repair manuals. Born out of a response to Apple's stringent copyright regime on their service manuals, iFixit has grown into the most extensive collection of medical service manuals for hospitals. Kyle shares his journey from combating copyright laws to working on right to repair laws for everyday devices like tractors. From discussing locks on toasters to exploring the use of Linux and WINE on John Deere tractors, Kyle offers an insightful glimpse into the world of repair, open source contributions, and the potential futures of hardware. Press download now to hear more cool stuff! [00:00:46] Kyle explains that iFixit is a large open source collection of repair manuals. The manuals are created by the users, not sources from other companies, and they are the largest collection of medical service manuals for hospitals, from ventilators to vital sign monitors since the COVID-19 pandemic. [00:02:08] Kyle explains that iFixit is a for-profit company that sells parts and tools. He also mentions his friendship with Scotty Allen from Strange Parts. [00:03:08] Richard brings up the topic of legal implications surrounding iFixit and Kyle explains that while they do receive takedown notices, they've never been sued. He discusses how they deal with these notices, providing a detailed analysis of fair use. [00:05:27] Richard asks about LEGO building guides on iFixit, to which Kyle mentions a separate website dedicated to it. [00:06:04] We hear about the “Right to Repair” laws they are advocating for in various states. Kyle discusses the success of passing four bills in three states, focusing on electric wheelchairs and tractors, a consumer electronics bill passes in New York, and a law passed in Minnesota. [00:09:00] Kyle tells us his perspective about the intersection between right to repair and open source. [00:11:07] Richard asks Kyle if he collaborates with groups like Software Freedom Conservancy to circumvent these protections, and he confirms and gives an example of their work with “Right to Repair” laws for tractors. [00:12:46] What's exciting for Kyle about this conference? Kyle expresses optimism about the conference and the potential of transferring the momentum from the right to repair movement to the open source world. [00:13:33] Kyle suggests that open source contributors can help by assigning their copyrights to the Conservancy, aiming to get GPL software into as much physical hardware as possible. [00:14:46] You can go to iFixit.com for guidance on fixing their devices and find out where you can follow Kyle online.

Guest Karen Sandler Panelist Richard Littauer Show Notes Hello and welcome to Sustain! Richard is in Portland at FOSSY, the Free and Open Source Software Yearly conference that is held by the Software Freedom Conservancy. In this episode, Richard is joined by Karen Sandler, Executive Director at Software Freedom Conservancy. Today, they discuss the various aspects of organizing a conference, emphasizing ethical considerations, precautions taken, software freedom, community involvement, GNOME pronunciation, and highlight community contributions and the balance between using open source and proprietary software. They explore topics like DRM, exemptions, coordination on renewals, the challenge of “trafficking provision,” and the global influence of U.S. law. Hit download now to hear more! [00:00:35] Karen discusses the challenges of organizing the conference but praises her staff. [00:01:18] Richard and Karen discuss conference inspiration, focus on software freedom, and avoiding corporate noise. There's an overview of talks and speakers, and a discussion on the correct pronunciation of “GNOME.” [00:03:46] Karen mentions attending the keynote session, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and reflects on the complexity of organizing with ethical considerations. [00:04:22] Richard asks Karen if there's any controversies she's had to weather at the conference, and she talks about COVID precautions, collaboration with charities, ethical practices in organizing, and how high school students have contributed to the event's success. [00:06:53] Richard questions Karen about the balance between using open source and proprietary software for practicality. Karen emphasizes the need for thoughtful decisions about using proprietary software, reflecting on the realistic choices to ensure software freedom. [00:09:14] Karen mentions having a nice coffee chat session with Kyle Wiens, and working together on 1201 materials, referring to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). She further discusses about how the 1201 provision affects people. [00:11:27] The conversation takes a shift to discussing the trafficking term. They begin discussing potential legislation and the frustrations around applying for limited exemptions. [00:12:28] Richard questions why they focus so much on U.S. law instead of working in a country without restrictive laws. Karen explains the global impact of the U.S. law and how other countries often follow suit. [00:14:15] They discuss the lobbying impact of big companies and how they can influence laws even in small countries. Also, Karen shares being grateful for the ability to criticize and work within the system, the idea of working in another place, and the need for a global movement.

From fridges to phones and farm equipment -- it can be an expensive and lengthy process to fix new products when they break. We hear your stories and speak with Kyle Wiens, the co-founder of a company that supplies tools and parts to help people fix things at home, Alissa Centivany, a Western University academic who researchers the right to repair movement, and we speak with Liberal MP Michael Coteau about efforts to create new policies to protect consumers.

Fixing stuff around your house can be intimidating. You need the right tools, parts and know-how to take on many home or car projects. Fortunately, there are places and people in Chicago who are here to help. Reset talks to Tessa Vierk, founder of the Chicago Tool Library, Nancy Bennett, education manager at Rebuilding Exchange and Molly Heyen, co-founder of Gearhead Workspace about their workshops and programming that teach all things DIY. Then they talk to advocates Gay Gordon, executive director of The Repair Association and Kyle Wiens, founder and CEO of iFixit about the Right To Repair movement.

Hometown Radio 07/18/23 6p: Kyle Wiens from iFixit

This week on Everybody in the Pool, the best possible climate solution for the lazy among you: just never get rid of your stuff. Molly talks with Kyle Wiens of iFixit, the how-to and repair manual site that teaches you how to fix and restore everything from laptops to phones to wigs to purses and shoes. Kyle is also the de facto leader of the Right to Repair movement, which is pushing to undo actual real laws that prevent you, in some cases, from fixing your own electronics (by which we mean everything from phones to tractors). The more stuff we buy, the more resources we need, and e-waste, in particular, is the fastest-growing waste stream in the world, and it's toxic as heck. Be cool, carry old stuff.RESOURCES & LINKSCelebrating 20 years of iFixitRight to RepairSubscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://plus.acast.com/s/everybody-in-the-pool Please subscribe and tell your friends about EITP!

The useful lifespan of items all over your home from clothes to kitchen gadgets to cell phones has been shrinking, according to a recent article in Vox. At the same time, manufacturers increasingly design products, especially tech devices and electronics, so that they are not easy or cost-effective to repair. “We buy, buy, buy, and we've been tricked — for far longer than the last decade — into believing that buying more stuff, new stuff is the way,” writes Izzie Ramirez of Vox. We'll talk about the modern version of planned obsolescence and the “fix-it” movement that's trying to combat it.

July 20, 2022 | iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens on right to repair plus today's headlines by Automotive News

The co-founder and CEO of online repair community iFixit describes the auto industry's attempts to use copyright law to restrict who can repair cars. He further explores the meaning of ownership in a software-defined era.

You're watching Lingo Phoenix's word of the day for February 19.

The electronics industry has guaranteed demand for its products by making it impossible to fix broken devices. This wasteful "planned obsolescence" creates all kinds of detrimental impacts around the world — from environmental degradation, energy overconsumption, and recycling bottlenecks. It's waste for waste's sake and it is going mostly unnoticed by hungry electronics consumers. In "Death By Design," writer, producer, and director Sue Williams shows how the supply chain for some of the biggest companies in the world — companies like Apple, IBM, and Samsung — are creating avoidable environmental and health hazards. She and iFixit cofounder Kyle Wiens join EHT Executice Director Theodora Scarato for a conversation about the film, what is happening inside China's electronics production facilities today, and what to expect in the coming years. Will companies stand up and do the right thing? At the time of the shooting, Apple would not disclose its supply chain. It has since disclosed a list of suppliers, but it does not reveal who its suppliers' suppliers are. It's when you follow this chain that the quality of China's electronics production gets murky — and the risks become real, both for workers on the ground, the water they drink, and the land they farm. Is there an ethically made electronics device out there? Which data centers are being most economical? Will China take any responsibility for its factories? Will consumers change the way they purchase, use, and toss devices?

Today, Kelly sits down with Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit, to discuss Apple's announcement of Self Service Repair and what it means for users.

The latest CPI report notes a 5.4% annual jump, marking the fastest increase since the US was on the verge of the 2008 financial crisis. We speak with Octavio Marenzi, CEO of Opimas LLC, to talk about what this means for the country and how it's impacting the ongoing economic recovery. Elon Musk was in court on Monday and Tuesday defending Tesla's purchase of SolarCity. We take a look at why this charge is being brought against the tech mogul. Google was just hit with a $593 million fine in France. Professor of Law at New York University Eleanor Fox explains what is being done across the globe in the fight to enforce antitrust laws on Big Tech. The right to repair – what does it mean? How is the government keeping our economy competitive? Kyle Wiens, a right-to-repair advocate and CEO of IFixIt, outlines how important this legislation is for small businesses who thrive on fixing gadgets.v

Most people consider consumer electronics disposable. There's always a new shiny version available, but do consumers really need a new phone or device every year? Should consumers just trust manufacturers? It's a complex issue, and host Luke Fox welcomed Kyle Wiens, an expert on the subject and founder of iFixit, a repository of repair guides for consumer electronics.He was inspired to create iFixit when he needed to repair an iBook and found no manual online. They didn't exist, and that's how the story started. This move actually forced Apple to offer free maintenance and service docs, something others have not.However, iFixit doesn't have resources for every electronic. “Over 20,000 new gadgets are released at the Consumer Electronics Show every ear. It's not viable for consumers to do the work that manufacturers should,” Wiens noted.This could change with right to repair laws. In this model, Wiens explained, “There are three legs to it—the information, special tools and software, and the parts.”Right to repair isn't a new concept; it's standard in the automotive industry, but tech manufactures want you to trust them for the life of the product. Wiens contended that shouldn't be consumers' only option.New laws to enable this are on the table. The problem goes beyond consumer electronics to medical devices and farm equipment. They suffer the same challenges, and Wiens explained a scenario with ventilators. “If biomedical technicians in the hospital can't fix it, it requires a service call, and that causes delays.”Wiens also spoke about how electronics went from purely mechanical to software-driven, which means the manufacturers must pony up the info and tools. Their argument on why they don't is rather hollow. “They say it's a safety concern, a cybersecurity risk, or it's protecting their intellectual property.”These arguments don't make much sense and likely damage the trust those manufacturers so desire to create.

About half of U.S. states are considering right-to-repair bills. They would require manufacturers to publish manuals so that anyone can make repairs on electronics and appliances — everything from iPhones to tractors to ventilators. Some of the bills focus on just one of those categories; in Arkansas, it’s farm equipment, in Oregon, it's consumer electronics, and in California, it's medical equipment. And in France, a new law just went into effect requiring makers of some gadgets to put a “repairability” score on the label. Molly Wood speaks with Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit. He says there may be momentum, but there’s also a lot of resistance.

Waste Not Why create more landfill? Perhaps you should resist the urge to toss those old sneakers, the broken ceiling fan, or last year’s smart phone. Instead, repurpose them! Global junk entrepreneurs are leading the way in turning trash to treasure, while right-to-repair advocates fight for legislation that would give you a decent shot at fixing your own electronic devices.  And, if you toss food scraps down the drain as you cook, are you contributing to a “fatberg” horror in the sewer? Guests: John Love – Synthetic biologist at the University of Exeter Adam Minter – Author of Secondhand: Travels in the New Global Garage Sale Amanda Preske – Chemist and the owner of Circuit Breaker Labs Nathan Proctor – National campaign director for U.S. Public Interest Research Group – (PIRGS) Right to Repair campaign Kyle Wiens – CEO of I-Fixit, an Internet repair community Originally aired December 16, 2019

Making Tech Last Longer (0:00:00) Technology is great. But just like anything else, it also has the tendency to break... eventually. And unfortunately, many of us don't know how to fix our devices or know how to keep them from breaking so soon. We just run them hard until they start functioning like they were made in the 80's. Pretty soon, we're headed back to the store to get a new battery or a new screen or even a new phone. But if we don't want to have to buy brand new technology every year, what can we do to keep our devices running longer? Today, we're joined by Kyle Wiens, the CEO of technology repair company iFixit. He's here with us to talk about how to extend the life of your beloved technology.   Disabilities in the Fashion Industry (0:19:05) You know when you have the right outfit on and you feel invincible? For some people with disabilities, finding clothing that makes them feel good about themselves can be a difficult task. Inclusivity in the fashion industry has gotten better, but that doesn't mean there's not more to do. Many people with disabilities have been breaking boundaries in the modelling and fashion industries. How can we help uplift their voices and be better allies, as able-bodied people? Here to tell us her thoughts on the subject is K. Shantel.   Talking to Kids about Politics (0:52:46) Are you ready for the election? Because it's just around the corner! Now, whatever your political leanings may be, I think we can all agree this election year has been particularly contentious. While it has left many adults fatigued and frustrated, it has attracted the attention of our kids who wonder what's going on in our country these days. Many parents try to protect their kids from politics. But now might be the best time to teach them about this important aspect of government. So, how do you explain politics to your kids? Here to share her advice on the subject is Family Life educator Judy Myers-Walls.   Mini Book Club: Books on Diversity (1:13:26) Rachel Wadham of BYU Radio's Worlds Awaiting talks to Lisa and Richie about the best books that promote diversity.   Vote Early Day (1:27:36) Something unique about this election year is the emphasis on voting early. In past elections, voting early was convenient, but this year it affects so much more. In fact, it is so important that MTV founded the first Vote Early Day—“a coalition of more than 2,300 organizations and businesses that joined together to spread the word about voting early and helping Americans make a plan to cast their ballots this election.” Here to tell us all about Vote Early Day and how we can participate is Maxwell Zorick, the Senior Director of Social Impact at ViacomCBS Entertainment.

Kyle Wiens gives tips for making tech last, K Shantel discusses making the fashion industry more inclusive, Judy Myers-Walls teaches how to explain politics to kids, Rachel Wadham gives book recommendations, Maxwell Zorick helps us prepare to vote early.

Joanna and David didn't want to talk about Facebook, but they had to: Facebook launched a new digital currency, Libra, that could upend the way we pay for things. With the help of WSJ reporter AnnaMaria Andriotis, Joanna and David pick apart what that means for normal people. Next they chat with WSJ reporter Sarah Needleman, who recently wrote a profile of Tim Sweeney, chief executive at Epic Games, the company that created "Fortnite" and changed gaming forever. In this week's Today I Learned, David explains the strange world of waterproofing standards. Last, David interviews Kyle Wiens, the CEO of iFixit, about the so-called "Right to Repair" movement, and why there's a war over who gets to fix your gadgets.

In 1917, a munitions ship exploded in Halifax, Nova Scotia, devastating the city and shattering the lives of its citizens. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll follow the events of the disaster, the largest man-made explosion before Hiroshima, and the grim and heroic stories of its victims. We'll also consider the dangers of cactus plugging and puzzle over why a man would agree to be assassinated. Intro: In 1989 an unmanned Soviet MiG-23 flew all the way from Poland to Belgium. In 1793 architect Sir James Hall fashioned a model of Westminster Abbey from rods of willow. Sources for our story on the Halifax explosion: John U. Bacon, The Great Halifax Explosion, 2017. Laura M.

Speakers: Kyle Wiens | Veena Sahajwalla | Nicholas Chileshe Host: Robyn Williams We’re running out of resources but according to this panel, we’re going to be ok. Can we compete with the convenience of the garbage dump and the latest iPhone? Are tech companies taking away our right to extend the life of products? Is a waste-free economy possible? iFixit founder Kyle Wiens, UNSW’s Scientia Professor of Materials Science, Veena Sahajwalla and UniSA’s reverse logistics expert Nicholas Chileshe know a thing or two about delaying entropy, so let’s ask them.

Radio Motherboard talks to Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit, and Gay Gordon-Byrne, executive director of Repair.org about legislation that is moving through eight states that would require electronics manufacturers to enable you to fix your things. The bills have been intensely opposed by companies like Apple, IBM, John Deere, and dozens of other gigantic corporations. If you're here, you might want to check out "pluspluspodcast," a new podcast from Motherboard that takes you on the road with our reporters: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/pluspluspodcast/id1210989400?mt=2     See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Kyle Wiens, chief executive of iFixit, made his name by tearing apart mobile phones and laptops to understand how they were built and publishing his findings in open source repair manuals. He talks to the FT's Tim Bradshaw about the risks involved in the race for the thinnest tech devices, and what his company is doing to promote gadget repair and recycling. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We feature Kyle Wiens of iFixit, a company that routinely tears down new tech gear to check for repairability. During this segment, Kyle brings up the recent report of the recall of 2.8 million Samsung washing machines due to a serious defect which can hurt people. He suggests that the quality of such appliances is far lower than it used to be. He will bring you up to date on recent gear his crew has taken apart, including the iPhone 7, the MacBook Pro with and without Touch Bar, the flawed Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phablet, which had an unusual number of battery failures, and the Pixel, Phone by Google. He'll explain why iFixit has awarded Apple's refreshed notebook one of its lowest ratings because it's near impossible to repair. You'll also hear columnist and podcaster Kirk McElhearn, also known as Macworld's "iTunes Guy." Kirk expresses his concerns about the future of AppleScript in light of Apple's decision to fire long-time automation executive Sal Soghoian for "business reasons." Does this mean that AppleScript will soon be history? Kirk is also concerned about Apple's apparent lack of attention to professional users, citing the fact that the Mac Pro hasn't been updated in three years, and the controversial launch of the late 2016 MacBook Pro. He'll also explain why calls for Apple to build iPhones in the U.S. don't recognize reality and the serious difficulties of building factories and establishing supply chains. Or is it all about politics?

Tens of thousands of iPhone 6 Plus phones have been spontaneously losing their touchscreen capability because of an engineering flaw, but Apple still won't admit there's a problem. Motherboard spoke to Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit, about what's causing the issue and what Apple should do about it. We also talk with an Apple Genius about your options if you have a phone with the problem.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Even if you don’t know an Allen wrench from an isosceles triangle, we’ve got a show for you. From why high school math is overrated to why you aren’t able to repair your iPhone, here are some of our best conversations about the fun side of our technical world.

iPhone teardowns are a cultural phenomenon. This week we talk to Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit, about the latest iPhone 7 teardown, which attracted a massive global audience, and the secrets of Apple's new iPhone.

Kyle Wiens of iFixit joins us to give the results of teardowns of some of the very latest tech gear. During this segment, he'll discuss Apple's 2016 MacBook, and whether, aside from minor hardware upgrades, it differs much from last year's model. He'll also present the results of the teardown of the iPhone SE, the latest smartphones from Samsung and LG, and some virtual reality headsets. He'll also remind you about the poor repair rating of the Microsoft Surface tablets. You'll also hear from Stephen Baker, Vice President for Industry Analysis at the NPD Group. He discusses why he feels Mac sales dropped so much in the March quarter; he suggests some of Apple's notebooks are long in the tooth and need major refreshes. He'll also talk about the impact of the iPhone SE, and whether there's a big market for smaller smartphones. The discussion will also focus on 4K TV, and where the new format is going. What price points are most popular, and what about getting more genuine 4K content to watch? Stephen also talks about the contribution of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to the infotainment systems of a growing number of motor vehicles.

Most people probably don't spend a lot of time thinking about the materials used to build their phones, or the workers who put the hardware together. But Amsterdam-based Fairphone is trying to change that... by selling phones made with conflict-free minerals from Africa and by setting up a Worker Welfare fund for factory workers in China.  Even if you don't care about those things, the Fairphone 2 is interesting for another reason: it's the first modular smartphone to hit the market. You can replace the screen, camera, battery, and other components with nothing more than a screwdriver. The Fairphone 2 is available in Europe for 529 Euros, and Fairphone hopes to bring the smartphone to the United States eventually. It's showcasing the phone at this year's SXSW Interactive conference in Austin, Texas, where the phone is a finalist for an Innovation award. But the earliest the phone is likely to go on sale in the US is 2017. I spoke with Fairphone's public engagement manager Daria Koureniushkina for this episode of the LPX Show, and she explains how the project was started, and where it's going. I also interviewed iFixit founder Kyle Wiens about modularity and repairability in smartphones... why it's useful, and why it's not exactly common.

In this episode, we talk tools - how do we actually get into electrical appliances or miniaturised electronic gadgets, many of which are designed to keep us out? We interview Kyle Wiens, founder of iFixit. The post Restart Podcast Ep 8: Tools, new and old appeared first on The Restart Project.

We present a 2015 teardown roundup with Kyle Wiens of of iFixit. He discuss the products that were easiest to repair, and the ones most difficult. He'll also answer the Night Owl's hypothetical question, whether adding upgrade capability to more Macs would seriously degrade the thin and light design. In short, is Jonathan Ive and/or Apple marketing going just a little too far with their "thin fetish"? You'll also hear from commentator/author Kirk McElhearn, also known as Macworld's "iTunes Guy." On the agenda during the opening pop culture segment is his reaction to "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Does it really fulfill the hype, and justify the amazing box office receipts? Kirk will also talk about Apple's agreement to pay $350 million in back taxes to Italy, and the possible consequence in the action in the rest of the European Union. Kirk also talks about his ongoing concerns with Apple Music, its inability to learn about his musical tastes, and what he'd like Apple to do in order to overhaul iTunes.

Kyle Wiens is the CEO and Co-founder of IFixit. IFixit is kind of the Wikipedia of Repair Guides and Teardowns. Scott and Kyle talk about why it's important to be able to fix your own hardware. Do we have the right of repair? Why are so many consumer electronics designed without repairability in mind?

We feature columnist Peter Cohen, whose writings are found at iMore, Macworld and Tom's Guide. During this session, Peter discusses Apple's iMac refresh, and compares Apple's all-in-one computer to the Mac Pro. Which is best for you? He also discusses his experiences with OS X El Capitan, and offers suggestions on dealing with Wi-Fi connection problems. You'll also hear from Kyle Wiens, of iFixit. He explains the circumstances surrounding the company's decision to post a teardown of a preproduction Apple TV that they received through the Apple Developer program. As a result, Apple "fired" them and pulled their iOS app. He'll also offer information about teardowns for the new iPhones, compare them to last year's model, and explain the difficulties in repairing recent Samsung Galaxy smartphones. You'll also hear the results of iFixit's teardown of one of the new 21.5-inch iMacs, and why it's impossible to upgrade its RAM.

One of the many strange and problematic features of modern copyright law is the DMCA anti-circumvention exception system, wherein the Librarian of Congress makes unilateral decisions about what you can and can't do with software and products that include DRM and other protections. This week we're joined by Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit and a long-time champion of the right to repair and tinker, to discuss the ins and outs of this system, and what is (or isn't) coming in the next round of exemptions.

We again offer extensive coverage about the Apple Watch, this time focusing on its usability and potential for success. We also present information on the famous iFixit teardown, featuring Kyle Wiens and Andrew Goldberg, and how the company sent its reps to Australia to get some of the first shipping units to test how easy it is to replace the battery and do other repairs. Author and publisher Adam Engst, of TidBITS and Take Control Books, is a runner and one of the key uses for his Apple Watch is fitness tracking. Just how well does Apple's smartwatch fill that purpose? You'll also hear from Bryan Chaffin, co-founder and co-publisher of The Mac Observer, who will focus his discussions on Apple Watch prospects, and some takeaways from Apple's record March quarter financials. Can something be done to boost flagging iPad sales? Will more customers come once they get around to replacing the ones they have?

We present John Martellaro, Senior Editor, Analysis & Reviews for The Mac Observer and a columnist for The Street, with a big plate of topics. He’ll explain how his skepticism about Apple’s new MacBook was lessened after he had a chance to use one, and why it’s not a “4-year step backward.” Apple Watch is also on the agenda, as John suggests it won’t be a luxury for long. The topics of discussion also include why iPad sales are faltering, the Microsoft Surface 3 tablet, and Apple’s new association with IBM. You’ll also hear from Kyle Wiens and Andrew Goldberg from iFixit. This time they’ll tell you about their experiences tearing down the new MacBook, the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, and some Windows gear. Which models are easy to fix? Which models are just messy? They’ll also outline their plans to take apart the Apple Watch.

On this week's all-star episode, we welcome Kyle Wiens and Miro Djuric, from iFixit, who will present the results of teardowns of the latest iPhones, iPads, and Macs. You'll also hear some of the results of tearing apart gear running Android, and whether it's possible to fix a broken printer or a broken TV set. Backup strategies are on the agenda as we present Mike Bombich, creator of Carbon Copy Cloner, a Mac app that makes a clone or duplicate of your hard drive. You'll hear about the differences and the app's advantages over Apple's Time Machine. You will also hear from Bryan Chaffin, co-founder and co-publisher of The Mac Observer, whose bill of fare includes his perfectly awful experiences with Comcast support and why Apple makes it so difficult to upgrade most Macs. You'll also hear about WireLurker, malware that can impact both Macs and iOS, and Bryan's reactions to iTunes 12.

Nearby Silicon Valley is often celebrated for being a hotbed of innovative tech companies that are making the world a better place. Today we tackle tech from an environmental angle, pinpointing one of the hottest buzzwords of the day: The Internet of Things. The marriage of sensors and software means smart cities, smart roads, smart energy grids, smart agriculture, smart waste management… or does it? Will the IoT save us by making our modern lifestyles more efficient and sustainable or drown us in hard-to-fix gadgets and more planned obsolescence? Tune in to hear David Pomerantz of Greenpeace, Kyle Wiens of iFixit, and Sara Gutterman of Green Builder Media take on the IoT with host Laura Garzon Chica. The post Terra Verde – July 18, 2014 appeared first on KPFA.

Kyle Wiens, from iFixit, will tell you all about his company's tear-down of the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s, and you'll learn what it's made of, and how difficult it is for you to service it yourself. You'll also get a comparison with other smartphones, such as the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One. Once again, we'll present cutting-edge commentator Daniel Eran Dilger, from Roughly Drafted Magazine and AppleInsider, again reveals some of the "bozo" comments from the tech media about why they regard record sales for the new iPhones as bad news. Yes, I'm serious; that's what they've been saying. You'll also hear from Bryan Chaffin, co-founder and co-publisher of The Mac Observer, who will talk about the new iPhones, and the incredibly popular iOS 7 upgrade.

Rumor has that Apple might soon get a golden member… of the iPhone family.  But on this week's CultCast, we'll ask the important question: would anyone want a gold iPhone?!  We'll ponder the color choice and rumors of a big bump in 5S storage space. Plus, Kyle Wiens from iFixit.com joins us to discuss why Apple is purposely building devices only a Genius can fix.  Surely it's not just an Apple money grab… right?
