Restoring a horribly liquid damaged Macbook Air logic board: before & after.

[@Digital-Dan]

ICLN: So far, so good!

[@rossmanngroup]

Let's hope the clean energy train keeps going. New zealand just called this climate thing a crisis and what Trump did with the border wall calling it a national emergency set the precedent for another administration to come along and call something else an emergency that we would not traditionally call an emergency. My hope is that this moons and a continues mooning as a result. At the moment, I'm all in.

From an electronic engineer - that was probably one of the best overviews of a buck regulator I've heard. I now specialise in power electronics, and I think if I was explained it like that back when I was at uni, I'd have grasped it a lot quicker. You're always slamming your electronics knowledge, but I'd say you have a better grasp than most graduates - they only focus on the maths behind it and have no idea how it practically works!

[@silasmarner7586]

When a transistor "turns on" it would "Close" or be a "closed switch" not an "open". And "open" implies an open circuit or an "off" transistor. So when the P channel gate goes low, the transistor turns ON and the switch as it were, CLOSES.

[@worstusername22]

I run a repair store in AUS and can confirm that i had a customer who had a iphone die from water damage & without any physical damage ie cracked lcd ect and apple replaced there ip11, And that was also after i retrieved the data :) i told them to give it a shot as it didn't have any sign of physical damage and they advertised it as being water proof but I've gota say I was a little shocked when they told me it was replaced!

If you are using nvidia the flickering problem is that you have to disable Allow Flipping on the Nvidia X server setiings, Its not Linux is the way nvidia implements its driver on linux.

[@blastermaster77]

Nvidia is a propietary diver its their fault not linux.

[@pldaniels]

Happens on Intel GPU as well. I've seen the flipping option for nVidia but not sure it actually fixes this specific issue which seems to be more of an obscured-surface cull optimisation in the X rendering pipe

Hi Louis, I have an iPhone 7, 128 GB. It is 3 years old, that is my primary phone, it gets too heated while doing gaming on it, battery drains very fast. Can you advise if we can do anything about it? or Should I move on to another device other than apple?

I have a question. I bought a MacBook pro 2012 with liquid damage. I have all the power supplies needed, but when I turn it on, it just beeps 3 times. I also tried changing ram but nothing works. Wich power supply has to be present for the Ram module? thanks in advance!

[@tiavor]

beside the whole digital vs physical, there seems to be some fishy stuff going on in Germany, Agents of SHIELD BR cost over twice as much in Germany than in other EU states or US. it's really strange. and the German VO is a year ahead already available on the French BR, but it takes that year for them to release it in Germany ... for twice the price. I have no idea what's going on there.

Why dose the battery not disconnect when it gets wet to prevent electrolysis on the art work. Then the phone is just be wet and when it dries it will turn back on. or just spray the art work with clear acrylic(conformal coat of some kind). For something that you pay up to $1000 for this would be cheap insurance for your DATA. I do this to all the electronic that are outside including cameras and solar lighting and I get years of life out of them minus UV and battery charge cycle damage. N0PXJ
