Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.

I’m now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest…

    oh god, the reactions I get when I’d rather repair a thing for the same cost as buying the same thing. It even happens when fixing the thing is cheaper.

      I get this. I’m the director of a small tech company, market forces demand that I just do more work instead, but sometimes some trivial 2$ device breaks and it personally offends me.

      So I re-engineer it so it’s rated for 100+ years or whatever. I get the boards made in the factory, assemble with hot-air rework, and write the firmware myself. Sometimes it costs me a week, but it produces the things I’m most happy with.

      Clients just want cheap stuff done poorly by tomorrow. If you want art, you’ve got to be your own customer :(
