If it had warnings about not opening it, or not containing user serviceable parts, don’t fuck with it.
Of course I understand caution with ⚡️, but just about everything has a 'do not open' label on it (in the litigous US anyway). Do we not care about right to repair?
I thought in the context of the question it was obvious what I’m referring to.
'Twas not, friend.
"As an ardent supporter of the right-to-repair movement, FUCK. THAT."
– Me and my spouse.
P.S. Fuck John Deere.
Eh, I'm not sure about that broad. Macbooks say not to open them because "reasons", but most items in there can be easily repaired
Actually not. They CAN be repaired, but are a nightmare of soldered and glued shit. The only apple thing I own (Linux/Android/Win user) is an iPad, which admittedly is a sweet performer, and iPads are just plain better tablets, but no way I'm cracking it open. I've replaced Android screens, repaired laptops, but fuck apple. Not because of danger, but because breakage is almost guaranteed on newer stuff.
