My laptop hinge just ripped its screws right out.
  • I just used the threaded metal inserts and seat them with the soldering iron to use orignal screws and have had great luck

    Edit/ I should clarify that it's been a few years since I've done one of these repairs and may not be the best option on a newer/slimmer model

  • Why don’t you like Apple?
  • I keep hearing how painful it is to get out. Can someone please elaborate on this?

    I am not super tech savvy and was DEEP in the ecosystem but didn't think it was hard by any stretch.

    I migrated my data, purged my files, canceled my subscriptions in a few taps/clicks, sold our imacs, MacBook pros, homepods and iPhones and moved on with my life and haven't looked back since. Took maybe an afternoon for the data piece and a few other after-the-fact logins to cancel things I forgot about. This is legit the 4th time in two days I've read this comment so I am just genuinely curious!

  • I think the reality is, several of us have been to these events and there is a reason for the jokes. The last MTG tournament i went to had a literal sign on the door that they could refuse service if you smelled like a week old cum sock.. Just because you haven't experienced it, doesn't mean it's not a real thing.

  • is there a relatively safe way to remove a permanent retainer (wire behind my 4 front teeth) myself?
  • Not really what you asked but might be worth looking into!

    Had a similar situation, orthodontists wanted to charge several hundreds of dollars. The franchise dentist chains wanted several hundred as well.

    Found a local 'mom and pop' dentist that did it for an additional $50 with a cleaning.

  • monster rule
  • Its legit no joke.. I went in to the ER with a 'no narcotics' mindset as I was just over 3 years sober.. The nurses knew it was kidney stones immediatley and literally laughed in my face, albeit nicely, when I said 'no narcotics'. They advised I take the narcotics.

    I took the non narcotic option and fast forward 30 minutes... The pain was so bad I just threw up in my lap mid sentence and passed out right infront of my partner and two nurses.

    They brought me the narcotics after that.

    0/10, would not recommend kidney stones.
