[3791.26 --> 3792.98] That's, that's interesting.
[3792.98 --> 3797.38] Uh, the show is brought to you by private internet access, spectrum and LTX.
[3798.04 --> 3800.06] And also, this is weird.
[3800.06 --> 3808.72] I haven't even found, I've never, I haven't even seen this.
[3808.84 --> 3811.28] There is so much discussion of this.
[3811.34 --> 3814.22] I think even more than the tampon thing.
[3814.30 --> 3818.06] I love how, how stupid that is.
[3818.06 --> 3819.06] Um, yeah.
[3819.06 --> 3819.40] Yeah.
[3819.40 --> 3824.54] The top comment.
[3824.68 --> 3825.36] This is interesting.
[3825.36 --> 3827.64] It's not like they were asking Apple to fix it under warranty.
[3827.76 --> 3829.42] He said he was willing and expecting to pay for it.
[3829.82 --> 3831.08] Here's the biggest issue.
[3831.34 --> 3833.68] He's voided the warranty in a spectacular way.
[3833.76 --> 3834.42] It doesn't matter.
[3834.42 --> 3839.08] Even if he pays double the cost of the Mac just to fix it, which would be super dumb because
[3839.08 --> 3842.58] you could never pay more than the cost of the Mac to fix it.
[3843.50 --> 3845.70] Apple then has to give a warranty on the repair.
[3846.10 --> 3851.32] Then that puts them in all sorts of poo if something else is broken due to his tampering.
[3851.48 --> 3855.54] No, because nothing else could be broken because the entire thing would be brand new.
[3855.54 --> 3858.46] That's not how this stuff works.
[3858.58 --> 3859.50] It's just, you know what?
[3859.56 --> 3860.58] Well, we'll make a video later.
[3860.68 --> 3861.00] Bye.
[3861.00 --> 3861.08] Bye.
