Generally not a fan of Techcrunch, but they have a pretty good write up on how "courage" should be "leverage"

Courage.

 

I'll stick with the 6s. I just gotta pay $250.00 to get the screen fixed. It is almost as Apple pretends to give a shit about consumers to make money off of us or something. But, you know, black turtlenecks mean you care or something.

 

the only time i ever use ear buds is when im mowing the lawn

 

Today someone called all mad like "I've been waiting for hours and now it's well after 12pm!" Took every ounce of self control in my being not to say "well actually it's 11:59"

 

i was smart to get apple care because i fucked my screen up bad a few months back and it was only like 100 bucks for a completely new phone. but yeah i love my 6s and dont have any need to upgrade until the 7s and even then we'll see because this headphone jack shit is ridiculous

 

I have an upgrade option at T-Mobile so I might use it to get the 7. IDK.

 

i had to replace my ipad screen and that cost me $200 lol i had never broken it before in my life

 

I have Verizon and I pay like fifteen bucks extra a month for insurance, only to find out they don't cover it.

 

Yeah but you can talk to Siri with them. Totally worth it.

 

I can talk to Siri from my LG Tones too lol

 

I'm having the brain zaps from hell today

 

What new good shit is everyone listening to

 

baseball players are the best.

 

Both hosts no call no showed today, the only day I don't close. Fun stuff.

 

Local Natives and Glass Animals

 

The new Angel Olsen

 

I'm probably going to get the Galaxy 7 when it's time to upgrade, I've had the 4 forever.

 

Why did this just pop into my head..

 

The best part about this is that it isn't even a helpful mnemonic device for useful information. It's like basic rules of class that everyone already knows and chooses not to follow

 

Is it $250 now? I have a 6 and it was $100 to fix my screen last year and it was very shattered, pieces falling out and such. Apple had it done in under an hour which seemed crazy.

 

I don't have Apple Care.

 

Try a third party place. Or do it yourself. It's not terribly hard if you're gentle and patient.

 

...I feel like there's a twss in there.

 

I didn't, either, that's just what they were charging for a screen repair.

Edit: Apple site says $129/$149 for screen only repair for 6 and 6 Plus, respectively. Must've gone up a little.
