  1. The South Africa way of living is unacceptable to me. I don't wish to live in a country where either I'm constantly in fear or desensitized to the point of inhumanity.
    58
  2. Probably the genius that damaged the connector had instructions to do so. How it is always the same pin that gets bent, and not any other? It is clear to me.
    40
  3. Actually, right to repair was already under discussion before Louis sent the message. But indeed, Louis will give useful input. The EU tends to work differently, and lobbying is not allowed (ideally).

  4.  @jeroen5838  No, it is not my fault, and I happen to be Portuguese (an European, for now). I do not accept any faults for someone else's actions (of slavery, Apartheid, whatever, because I don't even condone such actions to begin with, and never had). Don't generalize or speak for all Europeans, because you are not entitled to. No one is.
    27
  5.  @Tom-qz8xw  No, it is not the demographics. It is the misery that is spreading, because banksters are interested in that sort of situation. Remember that it is in misery that oppression and dictators arise. Pre WWII Germany lived a situation of instability and then Hitler came and the problems magically dissipated: because it was Hitler and his goons that were causing the unrest in the first place. Lets see who presents the solution, and that person is likely to be the culprit of the current situation.

  6. You were formatted to think that way. But ads do steal your time, as well as they harm the creator.
    17
  7.  @ShadowSumac  Indeed. In fact, I think Europeans should never set a foot in Africa again. The whole continent is cursed. I'm sure I won't. I know for a fact that Angola is one of the most racist countries. They speak ill of the Portuguese. We just wasted money and resources there, and colonialism was a bad idea. Much of our limestone was converted into cement to build buildings and dams in Angola and Mozambique. Many of our men died defending what was not ours to begin with. What a waste!
    13
  8. YouTube probably banned your comment. They can do that, you know. Conversely, Louis pinned this comment of yours. That speaks volumes on how Louis handles criticism.

  9. It requires elephant power to break a micro-USB connection. Even a two-year old can fit a square peg in a square hole. I can't understand how people break connectors.
    5
  10. And they even have legislative power. So, not only do they get to control their employees, they also can control people that want to have nothing to do with them.

  11.  @ryankuna  No, he was honest and admitted his mistake. That's what many people nowadays can't even do.
    3
  12. "Self-leveling concrete examples". That made my day. LOL
    3
  13.  Dmitri Bulbasaur  Why are they racist? I don't like Apple, but them being racist? Only if they are promoting these antifa movements, because antifa and BLM are racist.
    2
  14. It will start with drones, and it will end with people being microchipped.
    2
  15. I would say even more. Ads are a theft of my time and electricity as a viewer. So, it is my best interest to avoid them. As a creator, I totally support ad blockers.
    2
  16. I would say that insulting clients is a very bad business practice. Oh well, Apple.
    2
  17. Governments protecting pdf files, as always. Hence the child raping files in the UK, and so on.
    2
  18. Samsung needs to be sued. It is not the first time that this company does shady business.
    2
  19. The name should be changed to TekDryJoints.
    2
  20. Yup, pretty much. I'm admired that it didn't fail during the test. But it will, since it hardly had any solder on it.
    2
  21.  @W..949  Which comment? About Angola? No, it is very accurate.
    2
  22.  @eug3nius  Indeed. That explains it.
    2
  23.  @Antiteshmis  All I'm saying is that is no way of life. If the violence problem issues stem from diversity, yes, I agree. Different cultures will always clash, disrespect each other, rob each other, and seeking a different multicultural society (one with no violence) is an utopia. History has proven that over and over. That is why some say that the devil builds bridges. Because different people will never understand each other.
    2
  24.  @Antiteshmis  What did you expect from a white guy like me? Bias?
    2
  25. I'm amazed to see how easy it is to scrape the soldermask from a Macbook logic board with a blunt soldering tip. By seeing other videos, it is easy to lift pads. The FR4 substrate Apple uses for their boards must be of the cheapest, lowest quality.
    2
  26. This is ridiculous. And I imagine, not hygienic at all.
    2
  27. Kudos to this guy. He basically denied what previous (Apple) lobbyists said.
    2
  28. The Church of Scientology has no valid opinion on this, and no credibility at all. Press on! Their device, by the way, is ridiculous. Any electronics student can design a meter that essentially is a Darlington pair driving a galvanometer. The thing is not even calibrated. And they want to oppose the law to protect such useless device?
    2
  29. You can always go to another platform if that happens. That's what I do.
    2
  30. Good news. The downfall of Amazon.
    2
  31. I normally deep fry my boards in flux. Yup, improper amount confirmed.
    2
  32. The hospital will never, ever, have grounds for suing, regardless of the circumstances in the contract.
    2
  33. "Allowlist" is newspeak for whitelist. I love Brave ads. The problem is that Google might pull the rug from under Brave.
    1
  34. You got that right. For example, António Guterres didn't fare well in Portugal, neither Durão Barroso. Both of them are crap politicians.
    1
  35. The cities are so ridden with crime, that it is just not worth it.
    1
  36. Mrs Katrina needs a lesson on conflicts of interest. This is not shady, it is criminal!
    1
  37.  @Dietbutcher  That has happened before.
    1
  38. So, the car does not handle water well? Like an Apple computer?
    1
  39. Samsung following the steps of Apple? Removing the headphone jack is a very stupid move. Personally, I prefer to use headphones because of the better sound quality and also to not disturb people around me.
    1
  40. Don't forget that AMD may not provide proprietary drivers in Linux distributions. Also, hardware manufacturers often don't provide documentation for free. That explains why certain features won't work on AMD graphics cards.
    1
  41. The fundamental problem is that YouTube is looking for more and more profit, milking the cow while they can (they already have that losing mindset). And a couple of ads every 5 minutes just makes a video unwatchable.
    1
  42. These people that are suggesting you chop chop tactics, are dishonest.
    1
  43. Like many of the big tech. Google is corrupt, Apple is corrupt... and so on.
    1
  44. Why anti-far-left? Admission of guilt? Maybe because the far-left is notable for being against privacy? Or it is just a coincidence?
    1
  45.  @paulh.9526  Are you an idiot? Since when using an ad-blocker is a terrorist act?
    1
  46. Are you in NYC again? Oh no...
    1
  47.  Fusion72  What does black culture have to do with police unions? It is up to you to help black culture, if yiu are so worried about that.
    1
  48.  @ChadDidNothingWrong  Indeed, it is fair to say that some police officers mistreat everyone, black or white. But it is only the black being mistreated that we see. The white, asian, whatever victims are dismissed as such. Also, not every police officer is bad, and I believe most are good.
    1
  49.  Net Yaroze  Karma will violate them, rest assured. Some people think they are above the rest. They don't.
    1
  50.  @Mini-z1994  Don't give these people (the looters) ideas by describing what kind of equipment is there. I was avoiding doing it myself. No one needs to know.
    1
  51. Prisoning kids in NYC. Really, longer classes and Saturdays? Who do they think they are? Change the teachers. End bullying. Change what is wrong instead of doing more wrong. These measures will only increase dropout and hatred for school. Plus, students won't even be able to focus on the subjects in those extra hours, because they will be burned out.
    1
  52. Before it is too late. Because if this continues, it will be even be impossible to work, except for Amazon.

  53. If they are using GPL licensed software, then they are using it illegally, because they are not following the conditions of the license, clearly. Even if they do their own modifications, they are obligated to share the code under the same terms of the original. The only option they have is either to share the code or pay a lawyer. The third option of them writing their own software is irrelevant now. The FSF will like to hear this.
    1
  54. I think Apple actually rents its products. It is like in communist societies, where you can buy stuff, but it is still state owned (and you are property of the state as well). In this case, Apple owns your Apple products, and tells you how to (not to) fix them, how to dispose of them, and how to replace them. And Apple owns you as a consumer, even if you didn't signed a paper ceding you as your own property. Or, at least, they have the arrogance to think so. The fact that Apple is able to use state owned organizations to enforce their policies, is not only sign the arrogance of their corporatocracy, it is flat out corruption.

  55. She is brilliant!

  56. Atmel is not bad, although I prefer TI parts for power management (LDOs and DC-DC converters) and battery charging.
    1
  57. The EU is crap.
    1
  58. Oh crap, using galistan (that is what liquid metal is) in contact with the metals on a PCB. Oh dear!
    1
  59. Vulture is run by psychopaths. It is the only explanation!
    1
  60. As if that would protect them against a suit. I could accept a clause and then scrap it later, because it has no grounds for legitimacy.
    1
  61. This really showcases that leadership can either build or burn a project.
    1
  62. I suspect that Apple uses very thin copper, perhaps 1/2Oz, on their boards.
    1
  63. Good one, Louis! Loved the idea.
    1
  64. YouTube being stupid once again. What a pit of SJWs.
    1
  65. This is clearly a move to favor Chrome, Chromium and Chromium based browsers. It makes sense, because they clearly want to monopolize the web. They are no different than Micro$oft.
    1
  66.  @PhilippBlum  Unfortunately, patents like these are approved every time. Prior art or not.
    1
  67. VISA is a private company. How are they going to enforce fines?
    1
  68. Very sad what is happening. The looters and rioters don't realise that this harms them, as well (and most importantly) as everyone else. This is COVID amplified. The only hope is that evil never endures.
    1
  69.  @1225KPH  People that think like you are the responsible by the destruction of entire cities like Detroit. Perhaps the average people should stop having a bank account, as there are no real benefits to that as well. Remember, the door swings both ways.
    1
  70. This is ridiculous.
    1
  71. Lots of pets (roaches) to go around! It should be sold by $800, not $800000. It is a rotten wooden house, for God's sake! For the moment, I thought it was one of the houses from the game "Gouse Flipper". I never imagined that the degree of crap could be real, even on a used up house. I've seen cleaner haunted houses.
    1
  72. Ah crap again. He filed his iron's tip. Now solder will eat it away, since the plating is not there.
    1
  73. Hi Louis. Any plans for a partition wall?
    1
  74. This is the same crap that AutoDesk did when they bought Eagle CAD.
    1
  75. The journalist was fat.
    1
  76.  @ivok9846  You were lucky. I had a drive of the same model with increasing reallocated sectors, still under warranty. It was replaced by a WD and refurbished by the manufacturer. The refurbished drive failed suddenly after about three years of little use, on my dad's PC.
    1
  77. This surpassed the "Again" level, and rose to "Once more". Confirmed!
    1
  78. Disgusting! This proves that NYC is a shithole.
    1
  79. I prefer to assume malice, because stupidity cannot explain it. How can graduate engineers commit such stupid mistakes?
    1
  80. Apple damaging Intersil, by prohibiting them to sell their own chips to someone else? It is like a pact with the Devil.
    1
  81. This is especially bad for eBay sellers. It is another insult to the injury.
    1
  82. Nothing like a printer that doesn't prioritize its first and only job: printing.
    1
  83. Lithium-based bombs should always be banned.
    1
  84. It is called the "You'll own anything" policy.
    1
  85.  @MoppelMat  Do you know anything about electronics? Or are you trolling? Such a bad contact will cause voltage instability, and will cause the GPU to freeze. Learn about SMPS circuits and buck regulators, and then tell me that.
    1
  86.  @MoppelMat  It is not a matter of me being smart. Anyway, you were the one trolling.
    1
  87.  @MoppelMat  My mistake, then. Sorry.
    1
  88. ​ @Mori  People can't be trusted anymore. Especially young people.

  89. Some businesses are between a seller and a buyer. As a buyer, I would value a jail broken smarthphone any time.

  90. Judging by the amount of grime.

  91. That guy is legendary at roasting.
    1
  92. They try to block adblockers, but there is still a way to go around. When they opt for more drastic measures, I will opt out. And I don't post any of my videos behind a paywall, so, if YouTube ever does that, I will just exterminate my channels.
    1
  93. So, it is legit for companies to waste time (and money) from their web visitors that are just browsing for solutions. Solution: sell physical products that are worth actually something, instead of services that result in no physical manifestation (aka, useless services).
    1
  94. One detail that confuses me is that the "genius" takes two identical laptops to the back. How can he tell which one is which?
    1
  95. Basically, it is a shit hole. Never seen such dump and I live in Portugal.
    1
  96. I agree Eli's video is not a hacking video. Far from it!
    1
  97. The EU has gone stupid years ago.
    1
  98. "Please, come and work for me.". That is how I interpret what the governor said.
    1
  99. TechNet is one of those companies that only consumes. It doesn't produce anything of value. These companies almost always cause damage, because they need damage in order to survive. A fine example of corruption.
    1
  100. Vice is not a reliable source of information, unfortunately.
    1
  101. Screw political correctness. Really. PC culture is poisonous to truth and progress.
    1
  102. After seeing this, I ask the following: why politicians and legislators are so incompetent that they attempt to discuss technical details that clearly they don't know about?
    1
  103. Vice doesn't have interesting articles to read. Most "journalists" (cough cough) are opinionated and quite left leaning.
    1
  104. She even stutters. She doesn't even have a clue what she is talking about. People need to cut any and every funding to these organizations. They are not there to defend the consumer, but their own interests and the interests of big corporations.
    1
  105. They never will sell our personal data... until they will.
    1
  106. My browser doesn't have an allowlist, only a white list. Sorry Google!
    1
  107. They did this years ago. One case was when they've bought CadSoft (and Eagle) from Newark.
    1
  108. Now that you mention that people still buy expensive phones in this day and age... Computers are cheaper and more durable. Just buy the components, and you may build a good tower PC for less than $600.
    1
  109. Oh, the incompetence!
    1
  110. What a joke!
    1
  111. It is all circumstantial evidence. Not even admissible in court.
    1
  112. Ads are piracy.
    1
  113. The own nothing and be happy is propaganda from the elites to us, plebs. They are trying to sell that idea for a long time.
    1
  114. That fking little thing causes a fire like that?
    1
  115. I won't change your mind. They are crap.
    1
  116. "Limited advertisments" as opposed to "only advertisements", I guess.
    1
  117. Laws are always made to attack the middle class the most. And this is global, as in worldwide. Governments want people to lose their independence. They need desperate people to serve as slaves.
    1
  118. Are you going to miss that bathroom door?
    1
  119. It is not a matter of why beat up car owners should have more rights than farmers, buy why farmers have less rights than car owners. It is because of details like these and also due to failed rhetorics these rights are not recognized.
    1
  120. Seagate HDDs are junk. I had a HDD failing with increased file corruption errors. I've refurbished it only to fail again.
    1
  121.  @padraics  No, that was not the case. I had backups of all my files. I've sent my HD to the manufacturer for refurbishment/repair. The repaired drive failed after a couple of years of very light use, on a secondary machine.
    1
  122. Bad idea. USB-C is totally unnecessary. As for micro-USB, I don't have any issues, and never had. Remind that mini-USB was far worse, because it was not durable at all, even if you were careful. USB-C is not hobbyist friendly. It is impossible to implement that port on a new project. The EU should not mandate this. It is out of their territory, as they don't know anything about electronics.
    1
  123. And how they are proving that you phone your friends for this? This is either libel or illegal phone taps. Either way, it is a case for a lawsuit.

  124. The iPhone is a supercomputer? Pretentious jackass. LOL
    1
  125. Chase is a disgusting bank. They were involved in the major criminal acts during modern history.
    1
  126. A magtometer? LOL What a stupid woman. She does not know what a magnetron is. And no, it won't explode. Lobbying should be illegal.
    1
  127. Even EV's should not be that dependent on software.
    1
  128. This client is the kind of ass manager, neat picking bastard that fired me. Just because it could result in a disaster, not because it did.

  129. More like regressive, draconian economy.

  130. I would gladly refuse to pay.

  131. That model isn't viable, especially if you rent other stuff. At the end of the month, you will have no money left.

  132. Corporate censorship at its best.

  133. There are other ways beside canceling. Force a return with proof and then go to court if they still insist.
    1
  134. When I pay the full purchasing price for an item that is only a rental, yes, I do get mad. And let's not forget that any subscription service can be canceled by the company any time and for any stupid reason, such as, anti-wokeism and cancelation by a mad leftist. It already happened.

  135. Best comment.
    1
  136. If you install a script blocker, you will quickly learn that every site you visit loads dozens of scripts from other locations. Note that akamaihd is just one of the script providers. There are many others. This is to say that surveillance is pervasive, and not only concerning Macs. Sanctions should be applied to these companies, at an international level. Information provided without consent should have a hefty price. Nothing is free, and those companies can't get away with stealing information.
    1
  137. Yup, Seagate is crap confirmed. Had a refurbished drive that failed a second failure after being repaired by the vendor.

  138. I hate politicians and lawyers.

  139. I miss non-upgradeable fully offline games.

  141. I think the EU already has right to repair, if I'm not mistaken.

  142. @Jay Talents I know what will work: isolationism. If people stop interacting with each other, all differences go away.
    1
  143. Even if a PC only costs $300, there is no reason for it to break down in only two years. In the olden days, things used to cost more while being of inferior quality (in terms of manufacture control, at least) and some still last.
    1
  144. Now they tell what users should and shouldn't do, even if they are not part of their payroll. Ridiculous!
    1
  145. If you have your own company, working for home is normal. The problem is that people work for companies, instead for themselves. I miss the olden days.
    1
  146. YouTube is ridiculous. One of my comments was flagged as hate speech, just because my opinion was not following what is considered to be "mainstream" (that is, it was concerning what everyone thinks but no one dares to say). I wonder, did they also removed his Google account? However, I have to say that Vice is left leaning, if not alright extremist left. I've seen posts from Vice defending BLM and extreme actions from these groups.
    1
  147. I'm not surprised. The way they are detecting an ad blocker implies some kind of information retrieval, and profiling.
    1
  148. Samsung screens are not THAT GOOD. Not a problem, as I already buy screens from every other brand except Samsung. The capacitor warranty crap they tried to pull years ago is still fresh in my memory. To explain, the capacitors on Samsung TV's, in the PSU board, would fail a month or two after the warranty expired. And, not to mention, phones exploding.
    1
  149. Woz always differed from Jobs in the repairability aspect of things. When Woz designed Apple I, it was meant to be scalable. Jobs reduced the number of IO ports on the Apple II for commercial reasons, and that is stupid. Apple has gone worse since, IMHO.

  150. Oh Twitter, that cesspool. Lots of SJWs on Twitter, and that is the result.
