   Today's #SpendingStrike #OptOut post - I've been thinking about https://mastodon.social/@MelissaBenyon@climatejustice.social 's post about repair culture. The only "thing" I've seen for ages that I'd love to buy is the MNT Reform Next laptop. I can't justify it - the computer I'm writing this on still has a good bit of life left, but it's how I wish technology (and everything else) was built -future proof, modular, made to last, made to be repairable.

     A person in your position could easily justify an upgrade to allow for the writing you do. Would it not fit into #SpendingStrike #OptOut to repurpose your unit to someone less demanding of technology (me) and get the tool you need? Not that I need another but someone like me would put it to great use.
