Please could anyone with a #Kobo #Nia (#KoboNia) and/or #RightToRepair #RetroTech type folks point me in the direction of a valid image? Mine's borked amd I need #community #help! Thanks you ♥️
This is the most punk thing I've ever heard of. This guy got his physics phd then proceeded to use it to create open source plans for everything you need to start a civilization.
Definitely going in my digital apocalypse kit (wait, you don't have one?!), and this guy is now one of my heroes.

My requirement is very simple: I don't want to have to buy more than one #laptop in my life.

If you have a bit of time to spare, I strongly recommend watching this interview with @pluralistic

"As every good American, I am Canadian" - what a legend!
Time well spend!

If #openSource / #FOSS is not political, is #rightToRepair allowed to be political? Is #StopKillingGames bad for being explicitly political? Is #openHardware with all the actual physical supply chains with workers and factories and natural resources needed for its production (things that wars are fought over) allowed to be just a bit political, as a treat, so that it can actually reach its stated goals?

Next Saturday is International #RepairDay! Seems like a good time to remember community repair is one of many antifascist projects. Building ties between diverse people, sharing skills and knowledge, community care and resilience, care for life beyond humans.
Companies who bow to fascists or white supremacists, but wink at #RighttoRepair, do not represent this community project.

Does anyone know of an alternative/equivalent to Framework laptops? Preferably EU-based.
Like #FairPhone, but laptops.

Travelling soon, pulled out my 2012 macbook to make sure its usable, but the replacement battery was completely dead, even after a full day of leaving it plugged in. Luckily when I bought the battery kit from ifixit a few years ago they had to send me two due to some problem with the glue solvents. So today I've installed the replacement-replacement battery, and my 13 year old laptop continues to remain operational and useful
For the curious, it runs Arch Linux nowadays, which even supports switching between the 'integrated' Intel GPU and the more powerful and energy thirsty nvidia onboard GPU
