BUZZFEED: Top 2 Things Vegetables Would Do If They Had Arms

That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

Reblog if you:

Have an iPhone and are in need of repairs

Have a friend with that problem

Hate Apple and are more than happy to spite them in some way

No one will know which is it

[weaselle]

This guy inspired me to repair my own macbook. First of all, you should know that I am not… like, I have to look up HOW to look up what my computer specifications are. Tech, that ware either soft or hard, is not a subject in which I experience comfort or competence. But my puppy peed on my keyboard, and I asked the apple store, or the fucking mac cafe, or the godsdamn Computer House Chill Zone or whatever cute ass name they have for their bullshit store, and they said it would be TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPLACE MY KEYBOARD. I’m not even exaggerating.

So I asked the internet, well how hard IS it to repair? And I saw this guy’s video, and while I am no techie, I AM fueled by spite, so I was all “oh, they do that shit on purpose specifically so they can charge me $1200 bucks or make me buy a new computer hunh? FUCK THEM” and I bought all the tools I needed for about $25 and I bought all the parts I needed for about another $25 and I watched a few tutorial videos, and I replaced my own keyboard.

So, once you are doing the actual deed, it becomes pretty obvious that they are finding creative ways to make this much harder than it has to be on purpose. On thing that stood out to me is, instead of all the tiny screws being the same size, there are about two dozen very slightly different sizes. They could easily be all the same size, or like, two sizes at most, but no.

These mother fuckers will take a panel that screws into place and they’ll use a different size screw for each corner. They are so close that you almost cannot tell them apart visually, but they each will only screw into the matching corner. Like, it’s a pretty clear “fuck you” to anyone trying to do repairs.

anyway, this guy is also fueled by spite, and doing holy work, and I have mad respect

This is awesome. Man is doing good ass deeds 24/7 because he’s giving people control.

I enjoy that Breath of the Wild has a thermometer because it allows me to know with precision that I’m making Link walk through -17 degree farenheit weather just so if I can see if there’s anything on the top of the mountain. There was not. I also enjoy that Zelda pops into my head to tell me whenever the blood moon arrives because it shows that she can contact me, she is aware of the passage of time, and she would like to inform Link that another month has passed, should Link care to come down from the mountain and please kill Ganon at some point.

[andhumanslovedstories]

Zelda holding back Ganon by sheer willpower alone, watching as Link elsewhere in the world dies after flying off a cliff while he was trying to pop a wheelie on his magic motorcycle as he murdered mountain goats for meat he didn’t need

Imagine a dragon at Antiques Roadshow, appraising its hoard

[gayrob0t]

Imagine the dragon hoards monetarily worthless things like newspapers or old bones and the person appraising it getting more and more nervous about telling the dragon their stuff isnt worth anything

[antique-symbolism]

Imagine that the dragon knows this and just likes watching the person squirm.

[gayrob0t]

The dragon actually hoards uncomfortable situations

I just love it when people come up with random weird animal or dragon things and iguanamouth illustrates them just because.

my worst fear is an ocean update 2 where they add whales

[mooglesguard]

i've been thinking about this post for the past 30 minutes and only now realized it's from a minecraft blog and not just some guy who doesn't think whales exist

[tricktster]

a good thing about having friends with kids is that you can just sow the seeds for something that you’ll never need to address again. like tonight my friend’s three year old saw me eating blue corn chips.

kid: what are you eating from that basket?

me: triangles.

kid: can i have triangles?

me: dunno, did you brush teeth yet?

kid: no

me: mhm, and are you okay with screaming really loud?

kidd: what???

me: yeah, sometimes these make you scream really loud, are you ok with that?

kid: i am not afraid of screaming.

me: you’re very brave. you can have two triangles. then why don’t you go show your dad your new power, i gotta go.

op u live up to ur username

[kazieka]

issue: the kittens are still trying to learn words. gus knows his name and daisy knows hers, but they don’t seem to quite grasp that when I say “babies!” im referring to both of them.

hypothesis: “babies” is too similar to “daisy” and they’re getting confused

test: start saying “gamers” instead

Outcome: they’re understanding it and it’s hysterically funny

[kazieka]

me, calling down the hall from stirring a can of cat food: LET’S GO, GAMERS

the kittens:

[stu-pidity-deactivated20220206]

Yes please show us the gamers

[kazieka]

here’s the gamers! Daisy is on the left and August is on the right! i spent 45 minutes trying to get this shot

[someoctober]

I love drawing cats

I’m employed as a litter-picker by our Parish Council and I love it . I too have a degree, and I don’t consider this work ‘beneath me’ at all. It’s not full-time, so I’d never be able to make a living off it though :( I’ve got to know so many people locally, that I wouldn’t have done otherwise. I enjoy just pottering around with my litter-picker, while my mind wanders; it’s very satisfying. It also feels like a very useful thing to do, and so many people thank me for doing it. I very much feel like part of my local community. I like being outside whatever the weather, although I draw the line if it’s blowing a gale!

It’s 2018 and I still have no clue how CDs work. It’s a shiny disc, how do they get data on that, let alone that much?? Magic

[topographicocean]

Like a vinyl disc, where a physical groove is marked into the vinyl, a laser marks the ink of a CD in a similar manner. A laser (your disc drive) can then look at the pattern in the ink and understand it.

[demilypyro]

There’s no grooves on a CD tho???

[rave-lord-nito]

They’re just really tiny, hence the laser. The smaller grooves means that more info can fit on a disc of the same size.

[demilypyro]

Man how the fuck did they figure out how to make that

[thebaconsandwichofregret]

well they looked at a record and said “How do we fit more information on this?” to which the reply is “Well either you make the record bigger or the grooves smaller” and making the grooves smaller is way more convenient so they say “Well how do we make the grooves smaller?” and that’s when a total madman comes out with eyes flashing and yells “WITH A LASER!”

And that’s how the CD was invented

[firelxdykatara]

how did they figure out how to fit information in grooves in a piece of vinyl in the first place????

[katebushh]

probably got some ideas outta this
