Right to Repair Article in NYT
I repair and I hope that you do, too. Repair, resurrect and Reuse. Tech throws out so much after software can't keep up. Linux is one of the tools I use to keep PCs in service but still secure. I've not heard anything about Right to Repair legislation here in Canuck land. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/23/climate/right-to-repair.html

There was, IIRC, a private members bill proposed in Ontario. It was thoroughly shot down by a combination of Apple and a few other heavy weights largely using a 'safety' issue (absolute total male bovine excrement by the way!). Regards

so, okay, this is hectically off topic, but as a non bovine expert with a vague interest in all things excremental... I gots to know: what is the diff between male and female bovine excrement? :)
