Most customer's are not able to go this in-depth into the "parts availability" issue. If you try to tell them, their eyes will just glaze over. The repair shop will definitely have considered the option. They will have resear

Louis Rossmann has talked a lot about why he isn't part of the authorized program. There are two main problems he mentioned, IIRC. (It's been a while, so my memory may be wrong or the situation may have changed). Firstly, you can

In normal operation, Mastodon doesn't send all it's public posts to everyone. It only sends posts that someone on the receiving end has subscribed to. This can be confusing for beginning users. There is a link in the interface for

What the phone repair companies want is to be able to buy parts (without all the weird rules that apple has for licensed companies now). The repair shops can figure out how to glue a screen to a housing on their own. The problem is they can

There's another book where the KLF discuss burning the money, and that's one of the things mentioned. A lot of people seem angry at them for burning the money instead of giving it to charity. No one would be angry at them for spen
