Applications:

gollark: With my laptop, *some* failed components (SSD, RAM, WiFi card) can be swapped out easily, at least.
gollark: With my desktop, basically anyone can repair it if they can read a basic guide and have a screwdriver, and can obtain replacement parts.
gollark: This is partly a consequence of the greater integration necessary for thin devices (not that I think thinness is worth that), but partly just them being evil.
gollark: You can't practically *repair* iDevices. They are designed to prevent this.
gollark: Oh, also, <@151391317740486657>, Apple devices are basically impossible to repair.
