A bit of a pain in the ass actually. Have to make an appointment to come to the store. There's also the matter of having to take my kids along as I have no babysitter. If I know for certain they'd do a replacement I'd go. Last time I'm paying for a stupidly overpriced phone. I've lost and broke so many phones.
So, I was being an idiot and smashed my relatively new Iphone. Doubt that it can be repaired. My wife told me she bought an AppleCare warranty thing. Not certain but I think it’s still under the 12 months protection.
Never had to do this before, but if it’s completely my fault will Apple honor the warranty? Don’t want to be a tool and bring in a smashed phone and expect them to give me a replacement. If it makes a difference, we bought the phone at an Apple store overseas.
Thanks! Theft protection too? Good deal.
Time to haul the kids out of the house anyway.

Is the apple store even open? Last time I walked by it was boarded up. But maybe you are somewhere other than PDX?

The ones in the burbs are probably open. Bridgeport Village and Washington Square I believe.
Portland has suburbs? I did not know that. Sounds disgusting.

You better get in shape, then. Doubtful you can hold your breath more than a minute at a time. But if you like fish sauce…
Speaking of deleting posts, say, if a poster delete his account, would all of his posts be gone as well?
Oh, shit, you mean to tell me I might have to delete one by one all the cringy shit (all the Oden posts lol) I've ever posted here?
My wife's cousin passed away a month ago and her family had some kind of virtual funeral for her. They had a compilation of all her “digital” selves and sent it out to everyone to celebrate her life instead of mourning her loss. They went through all her social media accounts and made accessible to everyone all the comments and conversations she ever had with anyone online. Went all the way back to her ICQ chats. Was weird af.

Actually I take that back. S2 is the only place I have ever talked politics.
It depends on two things:So, I was being an idiot and smashed my relatively new Iphone. Doubt that it can be repaired. My wife told me she bought an AppleCare warranty thing. Not certain but I think it’s still under the 12 months protection.

I live in Lake Oswego and we hardly ever hear a barking dog and never hear loud music or gunshots.Its actually paradise.
No barking from the dog.
No smog.
Bridgeport Verizon is open so I'll bet their Apple store is also open.The ones in the burbs are probably open. Bridgeport Village and Washington Square I believe.
Also, there are authorized repair centers. IMO, they usually take longer to do anything, I'd stick with the Apple Store Genius Bar if possible. The authorized repair centers are usually shut in nerds, the genius bar are clueless millennials with a techy in the back doing everything. Much easier to scam your way into a new phone.
Hey barfo, a lot of businesses are boarded up out there in the wilderness.Is the apple store even open? Last time I walked by it was boarded up. But maybe you are somewhere other than PDX?

Actually, since Trump took office I find lots of strangers willing to cuss politics with me. Did you know Trump is not popular? No, it's true.Actually I take that back. S2 is the only place I have ever talked politics.
You have to tell them a 10 ton dump truck ran over it. They would believe it.So, I was being an idiot and smashed my relatively new Iphone. Doubt that it can be repaired. My wife told me she bought an AppleCare warranty thing. Not certain but I think it’s still under the 12 months protection.

My Asian wife simply will not complain even when she gets cheated. If we have to return something to the store because something was wrong with the product or the food wasn't right at a restaurant, I have to do it or it doesn't get done. She watches the bills and if there is some glitch in the bill, I have to make the call correcting the mistake.Christmas came late, but I got a new shiny Iphone. Paid a total of $330, but got upgraded to the 12 pro max. Apparently, my wife’s been paying for AppleCare+ with theft and loss protection the last few years. I could’ve made a claim the last time my Iphone was lost!
Thanks for the tips, broskis (@EL PRESIDENTE)! The Asian in me (not wanting to look like a tool, saving face) almost didn't bother bringing it in.
My only complaint is about your shoe collection.Oh, I love to complain. I'm petty as fuck.
I'm like your wife. My wife is okay with me raising hell but she'd never do that. I can't tell you how many times I've had to take her receipts back to correct some wrong. It took a while but I'm used to it now.Yeah, saving face is a big thing in a lot of Asian cultures, so they try to not complain or make a big fuss of things to avoid getting humiliated. My mom (and I guess I have a bit of it too) is the same way. My wife is not, but that’s probably because she was born here.
I've got a 50 gallon natural gas hot water tank and it never runs out of hot water no matter what.Hey Lanny, will you call and lay a verbal smackdown on the dude that installed my tankless water heater? Takes forever for hot water to start now. Dude assured me that hot water would start almost instantly because he’d installed a small tank that holds hot water at all time.
