I stopped watching when he got that one rare IBM workstation and sloppily dremeled in all the the screws to open it because he was too lazy to go to the store to buy a screwdriver. That was before I even heard about this and the stupid gun stuff. I know it’s like a minor thing and he only damaged screws and sheet metal parts that could in theory be replaced with a medium amount of difficulty, but I just can’t imagine intentionally damaging something very uncommon because you’re too lazy to buy a screwdriver
Videos like that I’m always amazed the creator even bothers uploading. I’d be so fucking embarassed it would never see the light of day.
But I guess its sunk cost fallacy. Gotta get that content out there I spent a week working on. I guess I can appreciate that. Theres also something to be said about being honest about your fuckups. I was so embarassed for him I noped out of that video so I dont really know how it ended, but I dont recall there being much humility about it?
I think it was a security torx screw if I remember correctly so it makes sense he wouldn’t necessarily have an appropriate bit, but it would have been so little effort to just order one or go to a store

In the comments he kept responding to everyone being critical and being like “well it’s my computer so I can do anything I want to it”
Casually shorts the two IEC colour coded wires for AC live + neutral.
You won’t believe what happened next.
I forgot about that part, that whole “repair” was such a mess
…who doesn’t have a screwdriver??? HE DISASSEMBLES ELECTRONICS OFTEN FOR A LIVING!!! WTF???
This only raises MORE questions!

You could also jam a flathead into one at certain angles if it isn’t too tight between the peg, I’ve done that before
