  • I was so mad at the video of Louis Rossmann being upset about valves repair video because valve’s the only tech company not actively making stuff harder to repair. Even if the video is cringy and overestimates lithium ion batteries, the help it’s given right to repair (what Louis fights for) is large and it’s upsetting to see him bash the deck as a whole. Here’s a comment that summed it up pretty well,

    Valve:
    -is safe from lawsuits because someone died while
    handling a lipo battery with a knife.
    I get:
    -repair documentation
    -replacement parts
    -upgrade path
    great device that has a potential to finally bring desktop Linux to the masses.

    here’s the video btw https://youtu.be/2qVUlO8-cl4
