Two cracked panes in the greenhouse roof just repaired with Loctite Superglue Glass left over from another project. Will they hold? Watch this space.

I love the repairability of these old greenhouses (this one's a Halls Europa, circa 1970). The perishable parts are replaceable and still available. It'll be the rubber gaskets next.

The problem is that #GrapheneOS are so self-absorbed in their "our way or the highway approach" that they partnered with #Motorola who are openly #AntiRepairDesign & refuse to abide to #EU standards re: #SoftwareUpdates & #Repairability!

You can't have your cake and eat it, dipshits!

> we do reduces attack surface. However, we don't have a "hardened security" approach, we aren't developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice. So there aren't difficult things to check if the memory is corrupted, really hardened security stuff that could clearly be useful for executives, in the secret service, or whatever. That's not our goal, our goal is to start from an observation: today our personal data is constantly being plundered and that wouldn't be legal in real life

So. My good, solid, reliable #Thinkpad T40 has stopped turning on. I suspect the power supply.

I bought it for CDN $300. I bought a new battery and upgraded the SSD for another $200. Getting someone to repair it would probably be another $200.

That would put me a third of the way towards a #Framework laptop, which I could fix myself.

Hm.
