    That microSD card connector being ruined on that board at 17:11 makes me so glad that I learned what essentially boils down to "If it doesn't fit the way you think it should, you're probably doing it wrong. If it's meant to fit the way you're trying to make it, it would fit without a fuss." One of the many lessons I learned from my computer repair course back in college, and something I wish more people knew today. So many electronics are broken because people try to shove things in the wrong place or force it in backwards and they don't stop to think maybe they're not doing it right. You gotta be careful with computers and game consoles and stuff, it isn't unbreakable, no matter how sturdy it may be there's still something in there that a good knock will rattle out of place and ruin the functionality, and that's aside from whatever that poor microSD port had to suffer through

    as someone who once ran around with a laptop bag as a main purse/backpack, the number of 'groceries' that ended up in there so I could have a free hand to deal with the bus or train is frankly astounding. While parm'd laptop is not the ideal, it was probably the result of a Parmesan emergency. Coulda been syrup. Or ketchup.
    Also, I believe that parm is typically shelf stable until opened. Be it the shakey jar of only technically parm or a whole ass wheel of the real deal.

It is a cheap overcharged SSD and once it is plugged in, it fries your mainboard and the cpu, because from usb to motherboard no transistor absorbs the shock. You can make any of your at hand USB into an USB killer

    Regarding shooting hard drives- so long as you're not standing too close, the chances of being hit with a ricochet or shrapnel are basically zero. In real world scenarios, bullets lose most of their energy on contact with basically anything solid outside of some very specific situations.

    I had a job building prototype circuit boards. I always loved how clean the surface mount stuff looked. I didn't use them often because most of the stuff was for HAM radio switches and antennas. Even the amplifiers were all through hole resistors.
    .
    For the tiny surface mount stuff I used solder paste, an heater infrared, and hot air gun. It was so cool because the surface tension of the solder would pull them straight. One project, a switch controller, had a small 3" x 5"ish board with hundreds of little resistors and capacitors. But after I was done putting the prototype together it looked so clean and straight, like a machine did it.
    .
    THAT 12:10 is an abomination. It's so dirty it's hard to tell, but those solder joints look sketchy AF. Those parts are literally pennies and you can get just about any size, shape, and value you can imagine.

    That HDMI at 9:10 frankly, I've had it happen to me. It's a thing with utterly garbage tier HDMI cables, you remove 'em correctly as supposed, and it just crumbles into miserable pieces in your hands merely by using it correctly.

    I had a laptop with a spicy pillow In it. In retrospect it was cooked for probably a good 6 months. Realized when I couldn't close it because the screen was hitting the keyboard. I'd been assuming the hinge was failing. I don't know if anyone else has had better luck with them, but in my experience, Surface laptops have sucked. Had to get it replaced under warranty for display panel failure, then the battery became a problem within a couple years of the replacement
