I've got a barometer from Oregon Scientific for Christmas. After a couple of weeks the external sensor (Made in China) is broken. Now I can't replace the sensor because the model I got is out of production. This means I can throw the fucking barometer in the trash. Fuck these pieces of shit.

These days, any piece of tech is repairable within 5 years after the first model was created

After that spare parts cease to be produced and it turns into an antiquity for which any repair job is going to cost too much if it's at all possible

I don't want to repair it. I wanted to replace it with a new one, which is impossible.
