Celebrating/talking about repairing stuff, the right to repair stuff, and the intersection of tech and solarpunk ideals.

What does it mean to use what we have, including technology, to try to build a better, more environmentally just world?

The more primitive electronics are still pretty easy to work on and fix though. OBD helps with diagnosing, and the sensors are usually simple enough to swap out for a new one if they fail, in most cases. If an ECU fails, that's usually as simple as swapping a cartridge, like on an old console.
