And as such is how the beat goes, decade after decade. It will never change, it has been a rinse and repeat for ages, both at the federal and provincial levels.

Thanks for the awesome work! Curious, how did you get around the GitHub Actions IP banning issue? Are you using a different CI?

I'm curious to understand what type of issues they constantly run into.. supply chain issues? Regulation compliance? Inadequate planning? Development errors?

Then you know full well that just because they shouldn't take all the crab legs doesn't mean they don't/won't take them all. If I go for crab legs and none are available, I'll blame Mandarin and give them a crappy review. People will be people. Can't blame them.

Then why advertise it as "unlimited" or "all you can eat"? That's false advertisement.

You're referring to Mandarin Buffet aren't you

What? How? The user is simply taking advantage of what is being offered

In what world are "unlimited" and "all you can eat" synonymous with "too far"?

"Too far" implies a definite limit, which is the antonym of unlimited and all you can eat, regardless of the business's ability to sustain it. If there is a limit, don't advertise it as unlimited or all you can eat that's false advertisement.

Lmao what's with the salty tone lol

I would categorize it more as wear and tear rather than disposability, but I do agree that the nature of repairing a MacBook is only for a market that can afford it. It's much like repairing a car, either you continue repairing it, or you drive it to the ground and buy a new one.

As a software developer, I personally do find MacBooks to be more conducive to my profession (my current MacBook is approaching 10 years), so while I wouldn't say I agree with "more people need to leave it", I would say that we as customers should pick the product that suits our needs the most (apple or otherwise). Which I believe is the original message in your comment (get the product that you can afford and are in the market for).

The root of the issue was identified by a third party repair shop, narrowing down to two capacitors that were providing the wrong voltage, preventing the MacBook Air to boot up.

While I agree that a repair shop technician is certainly more technically skilled and trained to find those issues than an apple genius bar associate, it is up to Apple to ensure that they equip their associates with the right tools and processes to identify the root cause prior to providing a quote, and even more so to inform the customer prior to performing the work order, or charging the customer.

Coincidentally, I just came back from a battery swap of my MacBook, and in my experience, there was confirmation at every step of the way before proceeding, even down to email receipts, to ensure that I understand the problem, and approve the work order. In this lady's case, someone fucked up big time.

What? At the time of this comment, one comment is a link to piped YouTube, one comment about the dispersible nature of Adobe products, and another about the difficulty of electronics repair... Where are these Apple cult members or are you really just hallucinating?
