Picked up a pair at American eagle that did without even realizing it. Best pair of underpants

Lemme guess, more AI?

I’ll keep this in mind for next time, I’ve seen a couple of people mention the demineralized water. It was 1am when I managed to pull this off so my options were somewhat limited as for what I had on hand at the time

I thought I was going to have to, but damned if I wasn’t going to try first!

There’s a separate wireless board underneath where the light speed logo is on the front. It’s not held on but much so I could totally see some corrosion causing issues there. Gave it some extra attention just in case. Wired is better than nothing tho

If this is part of your threat model and you are using lineage on a device that supports avb_custom_key then you can sign it yourself before flashing

I’m lucky all the switches seem fine! They’re all soldered down through the front case so I couldn’t get to the front of the PCB without removing all of them, which didn’t sound fun

I hit them with the same toothbrush & alcohol combo I was with the PCB and they’re looking pretty good, but I’ll give that a shot when they start getting grimy in the future!

Never tried one in the oven before. If I start having issues again I’ll run some more isopropyl alcohol through it and cook it medium rare

Hoping I’m good with just the isopropyl, but I am aware that it may come back to bite me. It’s doing good so far today so fingers crossed. There was already a decent amount of corrosion I could see when I got it apart, so I figure if it was gonna get me today it would’ve already

Part of a balanced diet!

Nope, just some coffee stains on my towel & mouse pad

Taco Bell’s app would probably work better if it was vibe coded.

Going to the bathroom to leave a shower

In a similar vein, this video is a good watch which covers the issues extremely well https://youtu.be/aj0H8oVS7qg

What was the update? Getting address not found on both calyos.org and calyxinstitute.org which doesn’t bode well

Edit: came back up. Update if it’s down when viewed

Pixel doesn’t come with Facebook installed as a system app. Instant win right there

Probably before convincing AI art, but definitely post AI. Posts have the view statistics which weren’t present before fElon bought it. Doesn’t have the xAi button at the top right added more recently either. Likely referring to September 7th 2023 in the date stamp
