I once had my power supply die on me and had an assignment due very soon that I needed to work on. So I biked down to Best Buy and bought myself a replacement. The replacement didn’t work and when I looked closely I could see the capacitors inside were all corroded. So I was a bit tired and I took the bus back to Best Buy to make the exchange. The replacement also did not work, it was missing a wire connector. At this point I cried a little bit and asked my sister to get me with her car so I could get another replacment. I was sad that it came to that.
Yikes, that sounds awful. I will say tho if driving is the easier option then your city still isn’t setup for proper transit (which sadly makes sense if you live in north America)
