"People" = literally one guy who has the tools and skills to disassemble an SSD board. Sure, it does leave the door open to third parties doing this as a service. Kinda jumping the gun on this though.

From the article this has lead a group to reverse engineer the proprietary board and start a Kickstarter to make it more accessible, which is pretty exciting (hopefully Apple doesn’t find a way to kill it)

Looking forward to a Mac mini version.

Are you stunned, shocked, or blasted?

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm stunned that they slammed Apple like this.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lol I love that someone downvoted us. We are joking about the same exact symptom the top comment is referring to: ridiculous article premises and silly titles.

Meh, I don't care how the votes turn out. I don't post for upvotes.

[–] lemmeBe@sh.itjust.works 1 points 22 hours ago

Sorry, guys - I had to. 😁

I don't know what this is supposed to mean. I'm making a correction to the claim that more than one person is doing this and saying it's possible other companies could start manufacturing these parts.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Many articles make headlines of the experience of one or few people and make it seem live a pervasive trend or situation.

I'm making a joke that many articles use ridiculous adjectives like stunned, when the subject of the headline is certainly not.

It's a joke about silly modern journalism, not you

[–] oxjox@lemmy.ml 1 points 18 hours ago

Pft. Ain't that the truth. Gotcha journalism has been around for over a hundred years and we still suck it up.

I’ve seen like at least a dozen tinkerer-youtubers done it in first 2 days, and I’m sure there are like hundreds of them in each country by now.

It’s kinda clear to me that someone will come up with an adapter soon that anyone can buy and plug their SSDs easily.
