  Ease of repair and cost effectiveness are literally the same thing.

    They’re literally not LOL.

    If they glue in the battery it doesn’t cost me anything extra to remove it.

      Also, can you please share your invention of this magical battery glue that actually removes cleanly with no fire risk and goes back cleanly to Nintendo and Apple? It’s cool that you’ve figured out how to do that even though these hardware manufacturers haven’t.

        “magical” glue? I don’t know what you’re talking about.

      Your time has no value? Can you do my laundry for me, then?

        Every minute of my day does not have a monetary value, no. And if your does, I pity you.

  You’re either a troll or a moron, this is the second time I saw you write stupid shit on a post.

  I honestly don’t care how difficult it is, only if it’s possible

  Can you think in the relationship of the two variables?

      The more difficult it is to repair something, the less possible it becomes to repair it.

      Damn-near anything is possible to repair with the right training and equipment but there is a very wide spectrum between what an average person can do with tools they can easily pick up at any hardware store for cheap and a little common sense and some YouTube videos to guide them, and repairs that require specialist knowledge and equipment.

      When something is made more difficult to repair, it slips further into that specialist end of the spectrum, so it’s possible for less people.

        For most people: the more difficult, the more expensive to get fixed

        That’s not true.

        what an average person can do with tools they can easily pick up at any hardware

        The tools someone has has nothing to do with difficulty.

  That’s… What the repairability score is.

  source

  • Ulrich@feddit.org ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I wasn’t talking about the repairability score. I was talking about the title of this article stating that it’s “harder” to repair than the Switch 1.

    • psud@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yeah, it is harder to do. Specifically

      • you need to remove stickers in a way that you can replace them, if you want to keep them looking good
      • You need to undo glue, iFixit used isopropyl alcohol and force
      • Once you’re in its fairly easy to replace parts, but Nintendo don’t supply parts
      • Batteries are glued down, you need to destroy the foam beneath them to get the batteries out, Nintendo don’t sell replacement foam, or even a specification for the foam

  I don’t care about the difficulty Nintendo better not have made it difficult

  uh

  • Ulrich@feddit.org ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I didn’t say that, you just made it up so I’m not sure what your point is.

    • ISOmorph@feddit.org ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I honestly don’t care how difficult it is,

      only if (…) there are any fucking corporate shenanigans that intentionally make it harder.

        I’m well aware of what I said, thank you. Is there a point you’d like to make?
