This is a nice win for self-repair hardware rights.

While there is feel good framing, write ups like this just reinforce what a dystopian hell hole we live in. It is depressing.
You’re not wrong, but I’d still encourage everyone to celebrate the small victories. If we wait for perfection it may never come.
“Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the merely good” is one (imo important) way to state it.
Yes, but framing is important. Saying “Oh look what our perfect corporate buddies over at Taylor let us do even though it’s their call” (a huge lie btw.) vs. saying “We finally got this victory, we can finally do part of what we should’ve never have been unable to do due to corporate greed, thank you Taylor for getting some sense, it seems like your scrooges still have some semblance of a soul left” is a big difference. As always, the truth is somewhere in between these two extremes. However, I’m inclned to lean towards the latter more than the former on the spectrum.
Oh, tbh I was just commenting the sort of “pithy” way to say what commenter above me was saying. I wasn’t actually commenting on the situation, screw McDonalds and Taylor both lol
as long as we are walking forwards, and not backwards or sideways, we can go one step at a time and we will be closer to something better.
Plus it’s still an improvement over the alternative.
