    I’ve got some serious qualifications in electronics, it sucks I love in a tiny apartment and don’t have the equipment I need to fix things. Had my main monitor die a few days ago and I’m sure it’s just a capacitor or something dumb, I’ve been out of work now about a year and everything I rely on seems to be dying lately.

    Really wish I had the space and money to have a decent solder station, multimeter etc.

    Also I’m not asking for any handouts or anything like that just cursing my own stupidity for never embracing a hobby that would definetly have benifited me.
