My six yr old just told me her motto. “If you got a burrito, you gotta eat that burrito.” Wise beyond her years.

@mulegirl what a shitshow.

@mulegirl in the time it takes you to resolve your problem with the bank, three startups maximizing AI value to craft support solutions that minimize wait times and achieve optimum customer value have been started...somewhere.

Residents from Pasadena and beyond got bikes, electronics, appliances, and more fixed for free at Saturday's Repair Café! At the event, people called for SB 244, the #RightToRepair Act, to reduce e-waste and lower costs for families @SenSusanEggman @ChrisHoldenNews @Portantino

[dave hoffer (he/him) @mcrate_s]

Support #sb244 and the #righttorepair

[Culture of Repair Project @CultureOfRepair]

We want to #Repair our stuff!

Is there a problem with less toxic e-waste, more affordable repairs, and more local jobs?
No.
But there IS a problem with no parts, no tools and no information.
We need the #RightToRepair!

Californians!
Support #SB244!!

@mulegirl i love when i choose the option that most others choose.

[dave hoffer (he/him) @mcrate_s]

@mulegirl Ugh.

[dave hoffer (he/him) @mcrate_s]

@mulegirl Oh I see. So much like the Plastic Industrial Complex has placed the burden of "recycling" on people rather than corporations, ADUs are being suggested instead of building real housing? Build an ADU in your backyard and become a tiny landlord.

[dave hoffer (he/him) @mcrate_s]

@mulegirl I don't subscribe, so I can't read the article. ADU is a euphemism for entirely too small house?

@odannyboy isn't it half empty because he fired everyone?

@DanCiruli Hey why are you shouting at me?

[dave hoffer (he/him) @mcrate_s]

I watched about 30 minutes of this. The animation is excruciatingly long. And the sound is mostly creaking metal. Punctuated by several instances of gunshots as crew attempted to calm the 1500 passengers who were (mostly) panicking. The screaming must have been nightmarish.

@DanCiruli I was up at 5 checking to see if the site was down. Slow. Like the titanic.
