a person yesterday asked me, as i put my coffee on top of my (lid closed) laptop "are you not afraid that it'll break?".
sure, i do value my stuff and hope that my stuff lasts for long - but at the same time my stuff = a tool for me. if this laptop (Lenovo "ThinkPad" x240) couldn't last my use (throwing into a laptop without padding, being hurdled around, you know - setting coffees on top of it) - i don't think i'd still have it.
and the same goes for my phone, it too, has to last.
@k I feel like this about my stuff too. That's why I have a cheap phone with a thick plastic bumper case and a glass screen protector, that thing goes flying at least once a day.
I find that repairing stuff also makes it less scary to break. The first time I broke a phone display I was really upset about it, but now, after repairing phones ~10 times, it's way less scary to drop one.

hello dear fediverse - does anyone of you happen to have a ps vita 2000 for parts?
I'd need to get the battery for one and i cannot seem to find a psv2000 battery for a reasonable price.
