Comment on Has the Deck turned *off* any other Steam users?
DigDoug@lemmy.world 1 day agoThis argument applies to almost anything that’s possible to own, though. What happens when your bike degrades to the point that it’s not usable as a bike anymore?

1000% it does. But if your tires wear out you can buy new tires. If a chip wears out in your game boy color cartridge, are you going to replace it? Is there a shop you can bring your old disc to that can restore lost data?

I think it’s a pretty apt analogy. A game boy cartridge is repairable if you know what you’re doing and have the replacement parts. Not to mention that older bikes aren’t necessarily going to be able to use more modern parts.

I guess you could be right. I don’t know enough about chip repairs I just figured mechanical parts would be easier to find and replace than a cartridge.
