There's a joint presentation from the Illinois #Luddite Society and #Makerspace Urbana on the 14th (next Saturday) at 2PM at the local Independent Media Center (#IMC). Come hear people suggest that: 1.) technology should serve human wellbeing 2.) the judgement that many dominant technologies fail to meet this standard, and 3.) what you can do about it I'm going to mention lots of #OpenSource and #SelfHosted tech from texting with #Meshtastic to privacy respecting smart thermostats.
