We waited for years, expecting Apple to dazzle us with a second generation of the AirPods Max that would change the game.

It seems Apple finally decided to spare repair engineers and users alike, as if it woke up from a long glue‑induced slumber that lasted for years. Can you believe there’s a new MacBook that doesn’t require a whole bottle of solvents to remove the battery? Yes, we’re talking about the new MacBook Neo, whose initial teardown revealed surprises we weren’t accustomed to from Apple. Starting at $599,…

Thank you so much... I hope you liked it... I miss writing that story so much :')

a robot and a mechanic are friends (and theyre both girls omg theyre both girls) but the mechanic is like. one of those people who always has like 5 different projects on the backburner. the robotgirl's battery broke, and she's stuck plugged into a wall outlet in her friend's workshop until a new battery arrives in the mail. the mechanicgirl is working on another project while she waits, a new attachment for her CNC machine or something, and she realizes she's out of a particular component, a small motor that's a pain in the ass to buy and get shipped. and then a metaphorical lightbulb goes off over her head (while one of the ceiling lights flickers over her head)... doesn't the robotgirl have that kind of motor in her hands? the robotgirl watches, with mounting dread, as her friend starts to look at her less like a friend and more like a pile of spare parts. besides, the mechanic reasons, it's not like she's using her hands for much for now... the robotgirl's protests immediately cease when her power cord is pulled.

when she wakes back up, she is horrified. the mechanicgirl used her motor in that CNC machine attachment while she was offline, and then she seems to have done a lot more besides that. Both of the robotgirl's arms sit disassembled on a desk in front of her, her legs are attached to her friend's very-disturbing-in-hindsight rack of spare robot limbs, her torso has been pulled open and her circuits are strewn across the table, and her GPU has been added to the engineer's computer.

"Oh hey! you're finally up, it took you a while with your new temporary GPU."

the robotgirl realizes her speakers have been taken too, she can't even speak.
