The Fixer of Broken Things.

This article about "Repair Cafes" reminded me of him.

I'm . . . old.

So, I innately despise many aspects of our throwaway society of instantly disposable things, even as I understand the technological and socio-economic whys that got us to this place. :(

I wish there was more standardization, especially with tech. Everything's unique and proprietary, so fixing an item costs 80% of buying something new and better.

TIL the forum software runs on Olds. Explains a lot actually.

Old's basement = ATOT's server farm. Some say FoBoT is still locked down there monitoring uptime & running GUI scripts...

Kevin is alive and kicking. Maybe he got banned?

FoBoT never made even one ignorant asshole post, let alone a whole raft of them while sniggering from behind his screen like a brain damaged lemur on crack, so . . . no. You must be confusing him with other posters you're tight with. :rolleyes:
