Maybe companies like Google should give people like this their prototype devices before going to mass production?

From the post:

>A popular tech durability expert has declared Google’s new Pixel 10 Pro Fold the weakest foldable smartphone he has ever tested after the device caught fire during a routine bend test, marking the first battery explosion in his decade-long career of testing smartphones.​​ Zack Nelson, the man behind the JerryRigEverything channel, which has nearly 10 million subscribers on YouTube, posted a video on Tuesday showing the $1,799 device snapping at its antenna lines before its battery began smoking heavily enough to trigger a fire alarm in his workspace. The explosion occurred when Nelson attempted to straighten the phone after it had already fractured during the bend test, causing the battery layers to pinch together and short circuit.

For sure. But you are anomalous. I can fix almost anything. I open shit up and take shit apart way before I buy a new one. What I am saying is that things they make today are not designed to last you for 30 years or more. I want to build a house, I need a water heater, oh, this one looks nice, it's 27 hundred bucks and it is yayyyyy so efficient and oh yea, here's your 2 year warranty..... What the fuck is that? 2 years? I'm building a fucking house here. I need this shit to be good for the next 30 or 40 years. Front door? 6 grand - 5 year warranty. Tub/shower unit? 15 hundred - 3 year warranty.

Pisses me right the fuck off. Everything is garbage. Sure, you can fix it, I can maybe fix it. What about the other 97 percent of the population?

I wish there was some more land left to claim. Somewhere that White people could move to and start over again. There isn't. I'm thinking about moving to Russia though.

FML and yep. I agree. Though, if you are thinking about land in Russia, let me know.

There is plenty of open land in the US. Most if is just owned by the government. It's part of what is making it such a pain in the ass for us looking for land.

Do you have a RV? Ill make sure there is at least one RV spot with hook-up's if we can get some land. Hell, Probably like 3. We might need a RV to use the land too. x.x

Heck yeah. More RV spots are better. You never know when you might need to convene a meeting of like minded individuals.
