Hi, I just want to say how happy I am that I finally replaced my old battery which was basically dead with a new one, successfully and I feel happy for it. Right now I’m writing this on that laptop which is charging, but I’m calibrating the battery which is recommended in a manual. Anyone wondering, I ordered it from ifixit store. How is everyone doing?
That’s real. It sounds like despite all the circumstances being bad you’ve settled in to a spot where you can be as good as you can be for now. It also sounds like your humble research with dpdr has been good in finding explanations for your lived experience, which I hope has a side effect that you feel less alone :) All of this plays a role into how you feel, and I appreciate the detail. no worries about the lil vent 🩷
Yesss repairing stuff feels amazing, not only do you get a sense of independence, but the computer goes through this hero’s journey-like experience that you get to play a guiding hand in. At the computer’s darkest moment you were able to step in and save it from death, and let it breathe once more >:3
