Is it hard? I've built several PCs and repair seems like a good line of work for me, but I know nothing about the individual components of the parts

Yes and no! It's a difficult initial process if you have no idea but becomes extremely easy once you know how PCs work.

Knowing how to diagnose problems is I feel a more difficult part. It's more complicated than knowing "These parts go there and have cables that connect to the CPU switch, main power and hard drives" because cables and parts, to a huge degree, can only fit where they belong.

I imagine in the line of PC repair work you'll encounter much more complicated issues and often multi-part damage. Also probably a lot of filth, I heard most normal people NEVER clean their PCs, change Thermal Paste or even let some nasty bugs accumulate in their PC.

Bonus points for if it's a laptop instead of a PC. Their tight compact nature makes repairing them hell I'd imagine. BONUS bonus points if you're working on an outdated PC who's parts you can't just easily swap out.

My life goal was to live in a house in the woods, support myself on 30 hours of work per week at the most, have 2 cats and a wood stove.

I mean the house is small (60 square meters of living space), I rent it, I have to use the wood stove for heating cause I can't afford gas, and my retirement plan is to die in the climate wars, but hey, I made it.

Did health insurance figure into your life plan or do you live somewhere where the government functions properly?

Considering they said "60 square meters of living space," I'm going with option b

parent

[–] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

The latter. Health insurance is something I simply don't need to worry about.

Something called a chimichanga in my neck of the woods. You can get one smothered or dry. You can even get one stuffed with fruit and covered with sweet and spicy sauces

parent

[–] aphlamingphoenix@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

Chimichanga is definitely the preferred nomenclature.

Ever had a wet burrito with melted cheese on top and inside?

If you had written "hot burrito with melted cheese on top and inside", i would be craving it now.

I was eating one while typing it, lol. Thanks taqueria de anda for providing me with my wet burritos when I get the munchies.

They tell you that the sky might fall
They'll say that you might lose it all
So I run until I hit that wall
Yeah I learned my lesson, count my blessings
Look to the rising sun and run run run

i found a bagel place that's really good.

they have one that I didn't expect to like and it has become my regular breakfast. Balsamic vinegar tomato mozzarella and basil, a caprese salad in a bagel.
