Seriously a great outlook about fixing things
It's already broke might as well try
Basically how I learned to fix everything I've ever fixed: TVs, game consoles, cars, trucks, appliances of all kinds, etc.
Hell my 75in 4k OLED TV in my living room cost me a grand total of $45 in parts.
I do this too because I love tinkering, but I think the most I've done is fixed some small appliances like fans that people threw out
I've recently taken up this attitude, slowly acquiring tools as I go. Just small stuff, but it feels good to repair instead of replace.
I hate this so much.
how come?
It's a nice message, but the dude literally showed himself clearing the engine of water, checking the singular spark plug, and then just starting it up with very little else in the way of actually tinkering, exploring, or otherwise discovering. I know it's a short video format but the actual video content seems to only be there to serve that message.
I thought I was going to see how to repair the pressure washer. There's no better feeling than taking something broken or incomplete and making it right. Watching someone else do it is the close second.
But the guy just said "I did it" "And you can too!". The internet equivalent of patting each others back. Meanwhile I still have no idea what was really wrong with it, and how it was fixed. Nothing of value was transmitted, except maybe a vague form of a feeling.
