Two years after its release, the Framework 16 isn’t just a modular experiment. It’s a statement about ownership, longevity, and responsibility in modern computing.

We revisit the Framework 16 from a long-term perspective. And what it represents after the dust has settled.

We unpack:

• What “right to repair” actually means in practice

• How modular design challenges the disposable tech cycle

• The uncomfortable reality of planned obsolescence

• And what this means for creatives, developers, and professionals who depend on their machines daily

Is the Framework 16 the future of laptops — or simply a principled niche product?

More importantly: should our relationship with technology be evolving the way our hardware does?

A grounded conversation about design ethics, sustainability, and the long game in computing.

State of Play 2026 didn’t hit like the usual PlayStation showcase. But a few days later, something interesting happened.

In this episode, I share my delayed impressions after sitting with the showcase — the games that quietly stood out, the ones I didn’t expect to anticipate (yes… especially the “chicken Wukong” situation), and what Sony’s strategy might really be at this stage of the PS5 lifecycle.

We talk Saros, Wolverine, Pragmata, John Wick, the growing PS5 pipeline, and why this State of Play may have been more about confidence than hype.

Sometimes the loudest showcases aren’t the most important ones.

I've been thinking about this for nearly half my life: why do our phones always run out of battery at the worst possible moment? In this episode, we trace the journey from the first telephones to today’s smartphones, explore why solar power hasn’t changed the game, and consider what could happen if our devices started harvesting energy from the world around them: body heat, motion, even radio waves. What if our phones stopped being energy-hungry and became energy-aware instead? A conversation about technology, life, and why something as simple as battery life can tell us a lot about the way we live.
