    Nick is Linus’ nemesis, I have never seen Linus so triggered by someone to this point, he felt helpless and he looked hopeless. Linus tried several different tactics, pointed everything that was wrong, Nick gave *_ZERO F%$#_* which drove Linus even crazier! Then Linus gave up and went for immature warfare but what really kills Linus is the fact that deep inside he knows that Nick might not even undo the mess he created on purpose.

    As for the screw driver, I used to work in aerospace and we used to use chromed snap on tools. One day, a flek of chrome broke off and got into some very sensitive equipment. After that, they changed ALL the tooling to mate black. Long story short, if the black finish scratches off, you do not want that anywhere near your electronics.

List it clearly (Unlike 99% of them) and even make it cost 2$ more or something in lower volume alot of people will still perfer it.
