Ah cool, I have used them in the past for laptops and my switch, but I didn’t realize they also cover appliances and a bunch of other categories.

Think of how incredible it would be if you could go on line and get manuals to fix any part of anything you own from a PS5 to a Refrigerator, to a Rivan Truck including all the protocols, chip sets, ect… Or just explore them to see how things work, I’m sure a lot of great inventions and ideas came about from people tinkering with and exploring manuals like these. Anymore these are considered “top secret” and you have to reverse engineer anything to figure out how it works. I think this speaks more to the fact that the things you “buy” these days aren’t really considered yours. You are borrowing the IP to use for a fee and if it breaks, tough shit.

- Comment on PSA: Libraries 5 months ago:
They provide services to ALL people. So tired of reading that only the poor use the library. My kids are always begging to be taken there to get books and do activities. We just used the color printer/copier at ours the other day and the first 3 copies were free. Libraries are an amazing community resource.
- Comment on Good game soundtracks? 5 months ago:
Second on the Octopath Traveler II music. Even my son who is 10 and plays it as well as a ton of other games has only ever commented about how the music is really good on Octopath Traveler and no others. It’s definitely the best music I have every heard for a game. There was a glitch one time where the music wasn’t playing for some reason and I realized how much the music made the game come to life, NGL, I think it brings like 99% of the emotional engagement to it.

I don’t wear it myself, but I think a lot of people apply it by putting it on their hands then “dabbing” it on there neck, face…ect… At first I thought it was just at one shop, then it kept happening at different places.

The problem with this logic is the manufactures have no control over the iPhone update. The article didn’t go into exactly what happened, but it could have been that the device worked fine at launch, but then Apple released an update which caused an issue in the app. Even if it didn’t happen this way I could definitely see it happening. Using an app for critical life sustaining medical devices is like play Russian Roulette, an update from Google or Apple can put you in the hospital, or worse.
