World on fire and there are people worried about repairing ice cream machines of an evil corporation and consider it a "victory". Depressing
The right to repair in general is pretty significant.
Theres quite a lot of humans on this planet. collectively we are capable of performing more than a single task y'know.
I'm not a climate scientist, but i am a programmer. i'd be much more useful on this sort of thing than trying to program my way out of climate change
Repairing things helps reduce the endless resource expediture and trash creation. Ice cream machines are just a random example. As you can read in the article they were going for much more, and more significant stuff, but got denied.
