Today it’s #SmallBusinessSaturday. Why not visit a local repair business and get your electronics fixed? Tag your favourite repair businesses to let others know about them! (Photo: Junaid from @sarasfix who also volunteers at community Restart Parties)

Tomorrow is #InternationalRepairDay! Why not try repairing something and share a picture on social media (be the #repair successful or not!). Or, tell a memorable repair story. Together we can inspire others to consider the value of #fixing openrepair.org/repairday/

Replying to @danablankenhorn
Innovation is SMEs inventing novel means of repairing electronics. ANTI innovation is Apple spending lavishly to kill 20 state-level right to repair bills in a single year, thus banning the practice.

At Melbourne Repair Cafe in #Yarraville today with my 3yo Breville toaster which does not hold toast down, keeps popping it up. And guess what is in queue in front? Another Breville toaster (1 yo). Is this a known problem, @BrevilleAus? Not good enough! #RightToRepair

Brilliant! The basic robot could also be very useful for weeding around small plants in a grid based planting scheme. #gardening
