I love learning how things work. Disassembling laptops is extremely stressful the first time (especially if it's your only pc) but it becomes fun when your realize that they're (usually) meant to be opened; it becomes stressful when you open items that aren't supposed to be, like anything that uses glue as a build material. It also helps seeing things less like a magic box and more like a logic interaction between things, meaning i learn how to use them the right way. And congratulations for fixing your laptop, it always seems harder that it actually is
