I hate that I happen to have the reputation of a tech nerd, only to get basically 2 different sorts of requests, both of which I rightfully refuse to touch…
- Can you unlock this
stolenphone? - Can you fix my 72 inch TV? The kids broke the screen.

You missed “make my computer work” and “get me movies for free”.

For ‘get me movies for free’, I point them to fmhy.net

Also don’t forget…
Can you fix my phone screen?
Sure, a new screen will cost $X, plus my labor cost $Y.
Wait, it costs money? Well nevermind, I’ll just get a new one.
