I wonder what percentage of these things get fixed versus get replaced. Regarding the USA presidency, there is no fixing, only replacing.

and my internet twice. But I managed to threaten it back into life yesterday. Replaced all hardware to no avail and then decided to check and if necessary reset the router settings. The settings were ok and I thought as a very last resort I might delete and re-enter them before calling the Telekom-technitian. I literally had my fingers hovering over the keyboard when the router suddenly came to life and somewhat hurriedly made a connection. :D

I'm afraid you can also add "huggle's bicycle". I just bought a new one (second hand, actually, but well kept). Now I just got to attach all the gadgets my old one had to the new one.

You missed my car's transmission. My car has been down for over a month until I can move it into the garage and start analyzing the issue.
