Louis. I'm in IT service management, and am tech curious. I've been watching your videos for a year or two. I have never owned a MacBook, and despite curious interest, have no real hardware repair skills whatsoever. However, while watching this one, I was screaming out PP342_G3HOT is not powering the SMC. Point is... I enjoy your videos. I like you as person, and have huge respect for your convictions. I have a guy air station and have done some limited SMC work with it, thanks to you. I was screaming the answer at my TV while you were getting frustrated at the chat. Your life philosophy, your values, your work ethics, and what you have shared and taught people like me deserves huge respect. I get just as frustrated as you... But at you for being so hard on yourself. But that's Louis, and that what drives your uncompromising, profoundly just stance. So while you get frustrated incorrectly thinking that 7 years and nobody has learnt anything (must have been a bunch of Muppets in the chat at that time), I incorrectly get frustrated at you being so hard on yourself. If it's what drives you, you do you. Do recognise though, that you have taught a lot to many, and that through your videos, you have admirers and supporters around the globe that respect you and want nothing but the best for you. Even though they spell words in a way that frustrates you. 😁✌️☮️

Shilling is definitely acceptable from an individual who has spent years providing free education to anyone who is interested. With as crazy as our world has become, some days I wonder why you have given so freely of your knowledge. Usually, I then remember why I spent a decade & a half in the military, being well aware that I would be paid shit & have people shooting at me and I realize that, even though we are from far different places since I grew up in the middle of Montana, our country is one of the last places where most citizens are taught by their parents that it is your duty to sacrifice what you have to to make things better for those who come after you. Thanks Louis, your patriotism over the last decade is much appreciated. I may never do board repair for a living, but I could if I had to thanks to your constant sacrifice & tutelage.

@ttm9379 2 жыл бұрын

I like the board repair videos as well. Watch everyone been watching them for years. Thanks for your time. And I may not be able to answer your questions. But watching your Videos are not a waste of time. I have fixed multiple problems with wiring and modules on vehicles. Your process works the same way for finding the problems on multiple things not just mac books and also have done minor board repairs on multiple different things and save loads of money over the years. Thanks again I hope I always see these board repair videos.

Man, after watching this video, this reminded me how repairs are done in some parts in Mumbai. If you are able to market this stuff there somehow it can be a good way to prppogate and montnitize this video. Or your training course to be more specific. Parts are kind of available in black markets like chor bazar, or few specific districts in Mumbai. Lot's of electronic components.

You have many different audiences. You chose to be a social influencer instead of just a technician. So when broadcasting these kind of repairing videos you will find many disorientated people who don’t expect them, and many orientated technicians still learning. Your audience doesn’t have to be the same as 7 years ago. In fact you have “kind of” changed it. On purpose. So, please, respect us and be patient. I am very very happy that you still do repairing videos. But I don’t enjoy them if I don’t see you enjoying it, or if you blame your audience. Thank you for your videos!
