Why have I never seen these threads that emulates high ‘testosterone’ diy thread ever want to repair a modern cellphone?

Why, yes, Manufactured Thread #00A63B, I do also feel this way. I can only assume there are jews at the heart of this. Also women are whores. Something something trannies. Maybe niggers.
I'll pay someone else to do it for me. I've got shit to do at home (videogames and porn) I'm not gonna get grease on my hands and learn how an engine works like a fucking sucker.

>>539222469I replaced the contacts and shock absorbers of my 40 y old washing machine. They were built differently back then.
>>539222770Based
>>539222469i tried, but im too weak to get the delta ring compressed far enough to remove the top half of my quad rail. so the top rail cover is just stuck on the gun and I won't be able to mount a pressure pad there if i get a light. i saw that there's a tool for removing the handguards but i aint bought one yet.
>>539222731This. We live in a gig economy. Get with the times.
>>539222635Right to repair, chud. It's why RadioShack went out of business

>>539222469wow you managed to take the valve cover off for some reason and it only took you a 500 page manual, guess you're not doing anything extensive given the bonnet is still on the car guess thats another 500 page manual aye brah
>>539222469
>>539222469Imagine being rich enough to own a car. That's boomer shit. The economy is toast.
>>539222469Dunno, but it's been going on for a while. And the worst part is average rentiods driving up their rent by doing so. >Cistern doesn't work? Yeah, imma call a mechanic. Landlord pays.Absolutely insane.Same as women and cooking. It's okay, you don't wanna be a 50s housewife and we get that, but then they can't even fry an egg to feed themselves.
>>539223533I like to mix it up. Carry on achmed/sven (depending on how i feel at that specific moment)
>>539223674>fixing xers skirtBased
>>539223680so just get one for free. i got three different cars that way, i've never paid for one.
>>539222469Guess I'm fixing things myself because I'm old. In my 50s. I was pretty much abandoned as a kid so I had to learn shit myself. We were poor white trash too, so what few things I got, I tried desperately to keep them working. I'd glue legs back onto my GI Joes when I was a kid, learned how to clean the lens of my cd player, and when my car invariably broke down, I worked on it with friends until we located the problem. Tail light busted out? Buy a new one for 25 bucks and pop it in and connect the plug. Power window no longer works? By a replacement console from amazon and pop it into the side panel. Had some cart bust my outside mirror and I got a replacement one online and replaced it myself. Would've cost me 250 if I let the local shop do it.If you don't have money, you have to learn to do shit yourself, there's no other option.
Fixed my dishwasher last week; turbidity sensor o ring was leaking.Was only a 10 min job and 20 European shekels for the part

>>539222469How many years have you been making this thread, and you still haven't got that shitbox running yet?For fuck's sake, for the hours you've spent making this thread you could have just got a McJob, saved up your wages and bought a fucking new car with a 100,000 mile warranty.
>>539222469bruh you've been posting your absolute mess of a garbage car for 5 years straight here bragging about fixing it...WHEN IS IT GONNA BE FIXED?It isn't supposed to take half a decade to fix your car, or else it denote you are particularly incompetent at fixing stuff, and thus shouldn't be bragging about being a diy chud.
>>539226689It's called having a hobby, some people like to tinker
>>539226907that's not a hobby, that's being utterly incompetent. You can't fix the same car forever, at some point it has to work.
>>539226816sexboobarapepenis insertion into vaginababy juice dumpster
>>539222469as a white male uncircumcised cockroach, I'm waiting for big daddy gibsmedat to do it for me.
I want to tinker again but I gotta fix up my 100 year old house first.
>>539226689Warranty is for women and fags ^^>>539226816Based knower. Have you ever fixed anything, pierre?
>>539226816whites can't fix anything. That's why so many white trash mobile home dwellers have busted cars in front of their houses
>>539223724Understood.
>>539223724Kek
>>539227459Hatespeech!But i agree whites need to wrench things up
>>539227443Post some pictures with timestamp of all the progress you've made over the past couple years you've been making this thread.
>>539222469Dis nigger got the binder out
cause i dont want to. its annoying.
i'm tired
>>539222614>>539223566You're just a jeet following the "you aren't owed the fruits of your labor" servile bullshit you've been taught since childhood. This isn't based nor blessed, that dutchman is a fucking retard.
I've been fixing my own jeep for 20 years and have done almost everything to it because mechanics are expensive AF.Can literally buy every tool and part you need for the cost of one trip.
>>539222469I fix anything I can reasonably expect to complete in an afternoon. Just put in a new cluster of door switches in my suburban on Friday. I’m HVAC certified and have lots of experience in most residential trades so I can do pretty much anything that needs to be done in my home.
>>539228866This is it. With some basic tools you can basically build an ak47 and rebuild an engine>>539228905Based. it all isnt that complicated, you just gotta start. And maybe sprinkle some patience in there
>>539229353>With some basic tools you can basically build an ak47 and rebuild an engineAnd yet after years of having this thread, Muhammed-anon still hasn't got his mid 90's Saab functioning.
>>539222469Newer things are being designed so that you can't fix them yourself. I'll try fixing pretty much anything myself before paying someone else.
>>539229690I wish it was a saab, it would have made sense for me to fix it up.
>>539222614>Im choosing my community over my own selfish desiresYour local mechanic has an infinite supply of useless retards who can't turn a wrench. Learning to change your own oil isn't going to put him out of business.
>>539222469Isn't it illegal to work on your own stuff? You need permits and licenses and it needs to be by code and all that
>>539229879>infinite supplyNot in 30 years he won’t, not without a million pajeets but they will just open a rival mechanic shop that only hires them.
>>539222469>single>work 5/7 days>breadwinner and housewife 100% of the time>live in overpriced nig and spic infested commie block
>>539229906Depends on the state and what you want to do. In my state the homeowners and agricultural properties don’t need a contractor’s license to get a permit to do the work.
>>539229803That a miata engine?>>539229879Nice
>>539222469I drive a Japanese car, not some European trash. I don’t have to fix anything lol
I fix everything on my own, it's exhausting. So called tradesmen can't do anything correct on the first try either. Everybody is useless.
>>539222469Boomers never taught their sons, and the few that taught themselves never taught their sons. Also, it’s like $150 for a non-chinesium carburetor these days. Tools and parts are expensive as fuck. It costs a week of minimum wage work to afford a cheap master craft set of trash sockets. I’ve had to learn everything I know about mechanical repair and carpentry from working on my own vehicles and home, which most people under 30 can’t afford to begin with.
>>539222469Too expensive and complicated, and modern things don't like boomer hack job DIY fixes.
>>539222469I do all my own wrenching. I have to if I want my shit fixed properly.
>>539227421Mine is from the 1880s, friend. Don’t be like me. Make sure to do the walls before the floors, no matter how intimidating the wiring may seem.
>>539222469Modern appliances and vehicles have been made overly complicated so the manufacturers can continuously justify having their shit serviced by a TRUE CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN(tm), which means doing any tinkering on one's own will void warranties and incurs higher costs overall. It's enshittification on a global scale.Also, it only ever takes three things to get something done: skill, will, and time. A lot of us usually only have two of those
>>539229906>Isn't it illegal to work on your own stuff?The fuck you talking 'bout?
>>539223836Those jeans have been working for over 20 years. Outlasted 3 trucks and a van.
>>539230378Don't forget to change your timing belt and water pump every 75k. Also, you'll have to do cv axles one day. And oil changes. And brake pads. And windshield wipers. And tires. Probably some shocks and control arms or something. That's about it though. Mid 90s Japanese cars are pretty awesome.
>>539231911Those are some though jeans then. Noted. Carry on
>>539231985For sure
>>539231426I am full time employed, I can't commit only my evenings to fixing major things nor rent a vehicle for week+ or hitch rides from coworkers for that timechange a radiator, a blinker, a brake light, a starter, an alternator, brakes, rotors, all the easy jobs that can be done in an hour or less, no problem if its something that's gonna take me multiple days I'll just pay a mechanic who does it full time for a living
>>539228905Can you buy and fill your own refrigerant or are you forced to call a business?
>>539222614Nigger what, you literally just can't do it stop lying
>>539222469i fix shit because i'm too cheap/lazy to mess around with buying something new, lol. i'd rather buy a part online than have to fuck around with replacing an entire thing.that said, i am getting so fucking sick and tired of fixing my washing machine (and dryer). shit has broken 10 times in the past year, it's like the ship of theseus at this point. i even replaced a relay on the control board and completely botched it because i suck at soldering (but got it working in the end anyway). unironically thinking of starting at side hustle where i buy broken appliances and repair em at this point
>>539229879PANEL GAPRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>539222469No space, no time, no money for hobbies/materials.
>Fixing the head gasket on a 1994 Opel economy carNah nigga throw that shitbox out.
>>539222469You could call it nurtured helplessness. New is cheap is plastic, economy always there to fulfil your every need and make you less able.
>>539222469ask a young man to open the hood of a car and name 10 things in the engine compartment.
>>539235448You know, hans, the world is going to shit, maybe it was always shit. I mean look at this clip, new american trucks for 100k dollars destroys themselves withinn a year of owning them, and these people are in the hole for so much money. I feel sad for them trulyhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=d9Bf9hF8GTQ
>>539222469I think its more that young men can't afford homes with garages.For years when I was renting I just took my car to the mechanic for oil changes because I didn't want to do it in the apartment complex parking lot.Now that I have a garage I do almost all my own maintenance at home.
>>539223125RadioShack went out of business because they sold cheap junk and you can buy now components for pennies on the dollar now direct from aliexpress. You’re just lazy.
>>539233739>unironically thinking of starting at side hustle where i buy broken appliances and repair em at this pointThere's a guy not far from me who just cruises around picking up picking up lawnmowers and weed whackers and shit that people junk, fixing them up and reselling them. Usually it's just a dirty carburetor or something simple like that. He makes pretty decent money off it.
>>539222469dude, you posted this same thread 3 weeks ago, and all you did now is reverse the image so it won't get flagged. what is your fucking point, nigger?
>>539230338>miataNo, BMW-era Mini, with the valve cover removed.
>>539227459>busted cars in front of their housesthose are donor vehicles. you take the good parts off of those to put on the one you're restoring.
>>539237320Problems with engine? I hate new cars, they are made by communists or something
>>539231157my boomer dad taught me, and i taught my son and daughter.
>>539231225that's why you focus on older stuff. it solves both problems.
>>539231581why does your wall look like a floor?
>>539231853when my daughter and i were restoring her '65 mustang, we had the cops called on us about a half dozen times by neighbors who complained about the noise. this was in burbank, ca. my dad and i never had this problem back in the early 80's when we were restoring my '68 camaro. times have changed for the worse.
>>539222614Based. This. Also cars are for fags and a symbol of slavery and being tied to this government and its roads.
>>539222469spend a fortune on tools, software..yea no...not economically worth it.
>>539238874Basic tools arent that expensive. You gotta start somewhere. Newer cars are gonna be more expensive in the future and destroy themselves from bad quality. So you should be able to fix an older car to survive
>>539222469I fix what I can but I don't own very much to begin with. Basically nothing.
>>539239596Thats fine, dude. Its not about owning shit. But when you do have things, and you can fix them if they break, it can help you and your family/friends. There’s just no negative about knowledge and a positive can do mindset
