- Fun, busy Repair Cafe tonight.
- I saw three things – didn’t actually fix anything, but did some good diagnosis on them.
- CD player. Turns out the whole model had a problem that Sony offered to fix for free – until 2021.
- Laptop. Asus Vivobook with red power light and blue processing light stuck on permanently, but no signs of life otherwise.
- Android Phone (trying to pair to Windows laptop). Coming up with Couldn’t Connect message on the phone. But my phone could pair to the laptop. Their phone could pair to my laptop. Phone paired successfully on Linux booted from USB. So not a hardware problem – something wrong on Windows 10. Ran out of time, but they’ll try to upgrade to Windows 11 and see what happens.
- Listened: WCV S2: We’ve run with it like a dog with a burst ball
- Great interview. Touches on how local community organising can be the way to get working class communities involved in climate related issues. Where the intersection is people, planet and pocket.
