its probably built entirely of parts you have to buy from defense contractors and thus un-maintainable?

There are a lot of machine shops in Belize because of lack of access to parts. Most parts have to be shipped from the US through Mexico and take forever. The Mennonites have the auto industry on lock there, there is a community called Spanish Lookout that has a ton of machine/part/tire shops.

I miss Belize :(

Honestly we need a better word than Tech to describe what we're actually talking about here

Like -- arc welding is technology, but that's not what's ruining the planet (except in a very abstract "capitalism ruins everything" way). Surgical tools are technology. Air traffic control is technology. LED light bulbs are technology.

The bad technology is computer technology, and more specifically it's computer technology where the overarching goal is harvesting your data to sell you things, and playing little psychological tricks to keep you coming back and revealing more about yourself and buying more poo poo

We need a word for that

"tech industry" works just fine

the goal of the tech industry is to create more tech to enable others to create tech to then sell back to you. no value is generated, only more tech in an endless cycle of parasitic profit-taking from actual productive industries

real jobs use tech to enable their actual purpose, the entire purpose of the tech industry is tech alone
