Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde "oem" parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.
Rules:
- Keep posts on topic.
- Don’t make posts with link/s to paywalled articles as their main focus.
- No posts linking to reddit posts.
- Titles must include information on how old the source is in this format dd.mm.yyyy (ex. 24.06.2023).
- Please be respectful to each other.

I recommend getting something like this, you'll never have this problem again (probably): https://m.aliexpress.com/item/1005005215189236.html
Yeah, but that's adding another step to making your stuff less repairable which absolutely shouldn't be the case. Repair should be as easy as possible but that stands against profit, corporations want the devices/items to be only for limited time use and not as long as possible.
