My max charger’s cable is damaged, but here’s the fun part: you can’t just replace the cable like you do with phone chargers. You have to replace the entire fuckignt thing. Cable and power brick. The brick is completely fine.
“NOOOOO you HAVE to replace everything because the wiring is specially created!!!!”
No fuck that shit. If they can do it with phone chargers they can do with laptop chargers. For fuck’s sake my thinkpad’s charger from a decade ago is modular and you can detach the charging cable from the brick. Also I can wrap my thinkpad charger up nicely and safely but apple bitch ass wants to be special and have the fucking cable insert stick out so it’ll easily bend and get damaged when you put it in a backpack
Fuck Apple. Fuck Steve Jobs. I’d kill that motherfucker if they ever clone him
You must have an old mac. Newer mac chargers have three separate pieces. A USB C to C cable (or Magsafe 3 to C now I guess), the actual brick, and the wall plug. What I did is I got a newer charger and an adapter like this.
OP is at fault for not following Apple's upgrade treadmill and buying a new laptop every year and throwing the old one away, like a real Apple person does.
I'm not saying that. I'm saying at least it's gotten better recently, and here's a way to avoid buying a new computer and prevent the problem from happening again.
