First, my car pops the passenger side front tire. Thankfully, no one was hurt. I got it replaced but I need to have my paycheck hurry up and deposit so I can get the other side replaced to balance it out.
Next, after replacing the throttle on an e-scooter, I find that I need to replace the brake as that is electronically wired and keeping the scooter from going (I found frayed wires connecting to the controller board). More money to spend on a scooter I found at the dumpster.
Lastly, after Nobara was practically screaming at me to update it, I go to log in and KDE Plasma crashes after log on. Thankfully, a quick search turned up a solution that got my desktop environment back up and running.
This was just Friday. I dread to know what my weekend will be like, since I’m the on-call technician this weekend.
Sometimes I wonder if you can actually just throw more money at these things and they actually work and break less or if they still don’t work and break as much but rich people just buy more stuff to compensate. I don’t know which would be worse.
Shit breaking down is just physics. Entropy gets to things sooner or later. I just wish it didn’t happen all at the same time.
