It’s been like this forever.
Idk how many postwar vacuum tube radios or amplifiers I’ve been in that don’t even have twisted pairs of wires running around the chassis. Twisting pairs of wire to reduce crosstalk and harmful emi is a technology that costs next to nothing and had existed for thirty years when they were manufactured.
Oh cool, a 70s sears guitar amp, surely this will have the incredibly easy and cost effective measures used in everything since marconi to ensure long service life!
Oh.
Iirc the ps5 needs to do a little dance with the optical drive to accept it but it’s been a while since I replaced one.
Are you making enough to become an apple certified repair shop or whatever they’re calling it now? It’s… uh… worth your time.
You gotta have a real not fake not on paper business and keep their shit secret though. A lot of hobby/student repairers and engineers just overlook that program because they’re working out of a spare room in their apartments or something, but if you can make the jump to a physical location and regular hours it’s a steady stream of work.
