So you change your own oil and do your own brakes, right? Cook all your meals, mow your lawn yourself, hand wash your dishes, and compost your food scraps?
No?
You’re just lazy and brain rotted; it’s too much effort for you to do those things.
(The point is the normal person has no idea and no interest in building a Home Theater PC (HTPC) nor in maintaining one, and I get that. Most people don’t brew their own beer, if it can/will come out superior to what’s in the store. Please just want to come home, sit down, and turn on something that works.
The only thing you got me on there is making all my own food, which I also try to do when I have time. Everything else, yes, I do myself.
Why would I pay somebody money to do a shittier job than I can do.
But yes, I realized my original comment was a little insensitive and rude because I'm just sort of an asshole. So sorry about that.
As another commenter pointed out, I do have a good amount of privilege that allows me to do this stuff, and I'm thankful for that and should work on being less of a jerk.
Upvoted for self realization.
