Yikes, even if agreed upon having to let someone in for inspections every 6 months sounds tiring.

Singapore. Mala has really taken off in the past several years. Every hawker centre, food court and mall will have one of such places.
Living in a place where renting is not the norm, what's this about 18 year olds coming to your home every 6 months?
Probably packing more into the same space. Battery capacities have been going up and that's weight. Phones are getting bigger too. A few mm here and there and it's an extra 30% in volume, which also translates to more mass.
Man, it has been a while, as I don't use the 9T as the daily phone now. I think I recall The Verge as one of the sites, because I wasn't expecting it from them. It happened only a few times, and it wasn't site-wide. Can't remember which pages triggered it though.
Haha, don't I know it. I've had to work with some of them in a past life. Messy and also very scary at how they underpin million dollar decisions.
That's really up to you. Some people like having to not use their phone, so there's nothing disturbing their listening experience. Or having to worry about battery life.
I admit, for me, I really like the idea of having dedicated controls, and a volume wheel. It's a small thing, but I realise I prefer controlling volume via a wheel.
To add to all the good points already, always look into the thermals of the case, as well as the components you're using. Heat is a big killer in electronics. Air conditioning the room where the PC is may help too.
Fans generally don't fail, and if you use a cooler that has at least two fans, you have some redundancy.
Using a non-passive cooler is better I feel as reduced heat adds to the reliability.
WTF, seriously? VBA feels more like a scripting addon (which I suppose it is), not something to build wholesale CRITICAL programs with.
That's why the Linux crowd here I describe as evangelical. I'm going to say that even the vegans aren't as annoyingly zealous.
I'm trying to think which will go longer (part of the least failure bit), hence my emphasis on reduced life expectancy from heat.
Speaking of case, that's another important point; I can't bear the idea of going caseless, dust build up is going to cause problems as well.
