I had to fucking Hannibal Lecter the skin of my new refridgerators water filter to harvest an RFID tag and put it on a new one so I could use an identical but not blessed-by-GE $60 filter.

Fuck capitalism.

NatSoc when?

No need to run
Just walk along beside it and learn how it works.
See how they condition and gain trust.
Learn their game better than they can play it.
Many things the last 25yrs has been hacked from the inside and then flipped for control.
Them walk alongs work

This has been an active battle for 10+ years now. There is a half Italian Jew named Louis Rossman who is at the forefront of the “Right to Repair” movement. He has a great youtube channel where he discusses all the bullshit he deals with trying to do his third party Apple repairs at his store:

People who buy Teslas are dumber than I thought. Like Apple fans. Dont' tell me you didn't know that Tesla was run by assholes. Don't tell me you didn't know they've been trying vehicle as a service. I mean maybe if you bought a Roadster way back in the day you didn't know. Someone with a Model Y is just a moron.

For a while, though, Tesla was selling every vehicle they could make. So i would ignore the whiners at that point, too. Cuz fuck the customers. They wont' go anywhere else. The fanboys will even defend the low volume auto manufacturer.

If you can't repair/alter it, you don't own it.

The death of ownership began with giving the end user no information or access to parts.

Now that everything can be linked to an online "service", that service can't be shut off permanently at a whim.

WTF is this response? Read the article or not.

I block all appliances at the router. fuck the jews

I have a dishwasher that is less than three years old that just tore up. all they make is cheap jew junk not caring how it hurts the American people financially. It is judeo usury evil

[ - ] Leveraction 0 points 2 yearsMay 18, 2023 12:53:05 ago (+0/-0)

Last dishwasher repair guy flat out said they are purposely making every appliance to only last 5 years max because its so expensive to repair, they get you to buy a new one.

My question, what makes Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders so much in favor of it, just seems kinda sus.

I never have had the opportunity to hear the opposite side of this debate.

Their handlers want the power and control such non-repair statutes would allow.

😡😡😡

This is why I don't rely on anyone for anything, everyone is a bot, an idiot or a scumbag. I can fix almost anything I own all by myself. I spent years understanding every painstaking, minute detail tediously so that I am an expert at most given topics.

is fixing cracked iPhone screens.

Just get splade and a micro torx kit and f'en do it yourself, stop taking it to Andy. Andy is probably stealing all your private data on your phone anyway. A pajeet and a chinkoid are definetely doing it.

Apple isn't the only company to put restrictions on goods that people have already bought

This has recently changed, they are now releasing an official repair kit for iPhone 11 and up.

Imagine the start of a hypothetical summer Monday, some time in the future. You remotely start your coffee machine ($5 a month for the app to schedule brewing in advance and another $25 for recurring delivery of compatible pods) while you hit your stationary bike for a quick workout ($30 a month for access to classes).

Subscription services are already becoming the norm in the automotive industry and home appliances. Simply do NOT purchase any good from a jew company that gives you terms and ongoing fees for the property you legally own outright.

The most obvious is the digital movies, music, books, and videogames. Idiots are paying real money to own nothing, because will lose everything if the provider bans them or goes bankrupt.

If you paid a kid five bucks in labor to fix your phone then you're a gross person. Five bucks is nothing these days.

The kid likely charges the $5 to keep the freeloaders out of his face. It's a smart move, many of us growing up when tech was first becoming a thing made the mistake of not charging for friends/family. That usually turns into a shitshow.

I recently replaced all of my appliances. The convection cook top came with a device to plug in, that would connect it to the internet. The tech said it was for repairs. In case something broke, the manufacturer could run a diagnostic that would save the repair man a trip. Fuck that, so they didn’t install it. Then my wife starts getting emails from the manufacturer asking why we had opted not to connect.

First, I don’t want another thing in my house that the feds can use as a bug. I can imagine the day when the manufacturer would turn off my appliance and switch to some bullshit carbon saving subscription. Gonna be doing a lot of cooking on Thanksgiving? You had best upgrade to the ‘Mayflower’ level. It would be a shame if you hit your carbon limit before the cooking is done.

This is why it's not going to work too. It's why the Black Market has always existed. It's why Prohibition didn't work.

If people will almost-literally (and in some cases, literally) go to war over booze restrictions, think about if you couldn't repair your own shit. You would search tirelessly for something you could. Millions of in-the-know vehicle owners (including myself) are holding on to old vehicles longer and longer because of the lack of electronics in favor of mechanical operation. Chop shops will open up all over to hack and bypass anything new, little software devs will make apps like FORscan to open up basically all the diagnostic features the techs get at a fraction of the cost.

Right-to-own is taking off in a big way across multiple states, and it keeps winning because it's a winning issue. Your sentiment is shared by the vast majority of people whether they know it or not. At some point everyone will encounter extortion from the manufacturer to a level they dislike, and Right-to-own will ultimately win. Ideally people would wake up on the way though.

Every single one I know isn't jewish and even Helen Keller couldn't mistake them for jews. I mean, first of all, because it takes actual work to run one of those places and not just hand-wringing pilpul. You have to actually get your hands dirty and not just whine and make excuses all the time; it's simply not an economic sector that is welcoming or compatible with kikes.

I live in a blue city.

There's your problem! I live in a rural area with a bunch of smart rednecks, and we're networked across multiple states with other smart rednecks.

Every single one in this city is run by a nigger and has a kike/mossad handler.

Ah, Godfather 2 style (Hyman Roth).

Individually, no member of the Party owns anything, except petty
personal belongings. Collectively, the Party owns everything in Oceania, because it controls everything, and
disposes of the products as it thinks fit. In the years following the Revolution it was able to step into this
commanding position almost unopposed, because the whole process was represented as an act of
collectivization. It had always been assumed that if the capitalist class were expropriated, Socialism must
follow: and unquestionably the capitalists had been expropriated. Factories, mines, land, houses, transport
everything had been taken away from them: and since these things were no longer private property, it
followed that they must be public property. Ingsoc, which grew out of the earlier Socialist movement and
inherited its phraseology, has in fact carried out the main item in the Socialist programme; with the result,
foreseen and intended beforehand, that economic inequality has been made permanent.

Cutting out the small independent repair shop is a necessary step to collecting, maintaining, and controlling the information database archives their information gathering operatives have contracted they keep on us.

Read your comment again and I’m sure you’ll see why I suggested the snake eating it’s own tail as the symbol.
