    Something like 98% of the world's troubles is because of the disposable economy. There is too much money to be made that way, so they will never change. We don't have much choice because that is all you can find unless you have a guy like this pushing back.

    Alex, we all love seeing you do videos, obviously, but any chance Big Boss can do a repair video for the channel? Would love to see him go through his checks, then take apart an Asus laptop (which he probably has done a million of), then reassemble and test. I am sure he has his own style for videos, so however he wants to do it would be awesome. Thanks for all the great work!

    Why can you not live by me 😭😭I stopped taking electronics to local repair shops because they either fuck it up more or tell me it can't be fixed.. I tested two places with an Xbox with a loose ribbon cable and both told me it was fully dead and tried to charge me. I showed them the issue and got banned from one of the places. the other actually offered me a job, but I wouldn't work there if you paid me triple hours. Please, please keep doing what you're doing. you are a dying breed to those just wanting money for nothing.

Look at the state of this laptop in the shot from Big Boss' desk at the end of the video - absolutely disgusting. Alex, just like you have a no-fix fee you should probably add a health-hazard fee to your terms and conditions as well.
