My laptop’s screen died, and in taking it apart to see if it was reparable/replaceable, I tore off the antenna socket from the WiFi card. The WiFi card can be easily replaced, but there is still a bit of it stuck in the end of the antenna cable that hasn’t come out yet… I’m not sure what the solution is yet (I might try soldering the cable to the card directly, if I decide the cable is a lost cause anyway).
Also my phone had it’s last breath last week, so now I’m using a 20 yr old laptop, and a 10 yr old phone.
I do think copyright should still exist, but with fair use being significantly expanded, maybe something like CC BY-NC?.
The bit about being non-transferable and owned by the individual creator is exactly what I was thinking.
Also: fuck patents.
