Why American farmers are hacking their tractors with Ukrainian firmware

I remember when this first started... fucking John Deere and Apple are pieces of shit. If capitalism did it's job it's well done here. Hope whoever designed this back pain gets a tumour. It must be infuriating losing good light because you have to wait for a technician... certified technician... I'd just shoot him, hide the body and steal his god damn plug in software while I waited on hold for the next one

I have a strong dislike for any company that tries to bar modification, once I buy something if I choose to modify it it's my business. If I choose to void the warranty it's my business, usually I do so because your product breaks easily or could use some improvements.
