There is no reason to repair electronics !

Yes, imo all the electronic parts are ultra-cheap. If something doesn't work anymore, just throw it away and buy a new one.



Repairing is bad :


1) If a part failed once, it will fail again and again. Better toss it.
2) Buying new parts is good for the economy.
3) Old technology belongs into a museum, old tchnology is obsolete and easy to replace.

Yeah, probably runs a land-fill.

This is a troll. If anyone bothers to reply to it, at least have the decency to remove the brasil.unix that it was also cross-posted to.

After all, the point of his post is to get responses, and to get them into that other newsgroup. It means nothing if it's not cross-posted.

I could fully explain this, I just did in another newsgroup, but I'm tired of being the one who notices. And I'm quite certain some will fall for it, just like the previous times it's happened.

I really don't understand why the OP bothered. To discourage us ? Ain't gonna work. At $20 an hour (and that's take home) what am I gonna do ? Quit ? To make this kind of money I would have to work hard physically in most other jobs, and being 45 I don't feel like it.

Years ago I learned to suppress my urges to do stupid things, thinking out what have I to gain or lose. I don't care if this guy is the owner of Sony, he can't possibly benefit from his rant.

My guess is he just feels the need to be a pest.

Now the six of us have fed the troll I guess. Let's hope he gets fat and dies from a heart attack. Some serving suggestions:

White bread fried in Crisco Raw pork and chicken, or sun cooked for a few days Lots of refined sugar and salt Raisins (chance of causing appendicitis) as a special treat Plenty of cyclamates and aspartime Ground glass

Any other ideas ?

The post had nothing to do with electronics, repair or anything else of the nature. It was nothing but a troll, crossposted to several newsgroups, thankfully so far nobody seems to have been stupid enough to reply to the crosspost.

As for what makes trolls tick, I think I may never really know. I suspect most of them are bored idiots with no friends living in their parents basement, I guess they find it entertaining to get people all worked up.

Wow... Didn't even budge the needle.

Better luck next time, bunky.
