Remember the days were people bought cars every 10-20 years?
Remember the days were people bought a computer every 3-10 years?

Why does everyone needs a new printer, new car, new computer ........................... in 2021?
You should ask your lovely US companies why they produce so much crap which is unrepairable if its broken and why its broken after 2 years.
I hope they will lose money, a lot of money.
Computers and cars are easily repairable, however, the cost of repair is not economical after a certain point. That is not the fault of the manufacture.
In 1998 an average pc cost 3000. Today you can buy a pc for 199-250. The reason folks kept them longer was because they were much more expensive to purchase and thus cost efficient to repair. Todays pc's are much more reliable and efficient. The reason folks replace them is for performance upgrades generally not a result of failure.
Same with cars, they are cheaper adjusted for inflation and because of the complexity due to safety and comfort innovations it is not cost effective to repair them after a certain point.
I have many desktop pc's running
blue iris under decent load for 5-8+ years, no issues.
Samsung provides updates for 4 years.
The reason why you were able to sell you old macbook for 450 even though you cannot install the latest OS is a combo of the average foolish apple buyer who knows less than nothing and your 20% VAT.
