Aargh. As someone who went into programming at ~12 after trying toys, woodwork, mechanics, electrics, electronics, .. - and stays there for 40years - i would have blessed software if it was just the software to blame. But i also knowhow all the other things before/besides that.. So it is, a total DIY-as-noone-will-fix-it-and-no-way-buying-it. Or it was but i haven't noticed things have changed?
(the saying goes that every man sooner or later grows.. into buying new socks instead of darning the holed ones. That i have accepted, but my question is, Shouldn't that apply to other things too?)
Handle of fridge broke? Well.. no-such-thing-as-buy. Fix it - or replace it - with a rope (from some gift-bag handle actually). Uncountable toys being fixed and overflowing the wardrobe.. No way Throwing (almost) working things.
Pfft. Same thing as these hudreds of Makehells^b^b^b^b^bfiles, or that proper rename tool [1] which after 10years has become a swiss-army-knife and i still find more use cases to add :/
A cage looking for a bird.. vs learning when to leave things broken...
Maybe that last one is like learning to pick your battles. Seems the hardest life lesson that can only be self-taught, sigh.
Thanks for the revelation.. maybe one day i'll write mine :/
