When I was in school one of my friends used to brag about the computer he had. Top tier Phenom X4, 24GB of RAM, 1KW power supply.

One day he tells me he ruined his glorious PC by doing pic related. I thought it was hilarious, even our ICT teacher laughed his ass off. It was after then I realised he never had that computer at all, and used that embarrassing excuse to back out of the lie.

>>61338381
Server rooms get VERY hot. They're typically heavily cooled to prevent the servers from overheating. If the air temperature in there is 94 degrees image how hot the components are getting. It looks like some clueless anon saw that the temp was set to 10 degrees c or something and decided to warm it up a bit.

This guy likes soldering and stuff, I think he likes it that way. His computer is really dirty, it looks like he is trying to grow potatoes in his keyboard or something.

Anyways, we told him that everyone in the office was going to chip in and buy him a new charger, and you know what he replied? "Awesome! That way I can keep the new one as a backup!"

One of the flip tap dealies broke so I had to superglue to fix it.

>>61339844
they have a small amount of leakage, not enough to damage anything, but wifi is already very low power (typically <100mW), so it doesn't take much to intefere with it
it would be a problem if your microwave intefered from a high distance (like say >5 metres), but putting a wifi AP /on/ a microwave basically guarantees no 2.4GHz signal's going to be usable while the microwave is running

>>61338056
that's nothing. Once had the air-conditioning fail in our office. On an 80 F day the heat turned on and the plastic holding the heat sink on to my colleague's computer MELTED. As in seriously melted. Unfortunately no pics, but once the heat sink was replaced it ran just fine. It's a nice old machine.

I still use my E330, in fact I'm typing from it right now. It's been a perfect laptop for me, I'm very satisfied all in all. The battery still gives me around 3.5 h of autonomy.

But the airflow was still insufficient to prevent critical overheating, so I used my soldering iron to melt out parts of the plastic protecting the fans for maximum coolness.

Long story short, it was a disaster all around.

microwaves heat up dense things, like water, it's the purpose of microwave ovens
if a significant amount leaks out of the microwave oven, it may heat up surrounding objects, the danger of which depends on what those objects are
you'd know if your microwave oven was leaking badly, as you'll feel it, that and there's a massive hole in your oven. iirc any hole less than 200mm will begin to attenuate these microwaves, so it'd probably take a pretty big (and noticeable) hole to cause a problem

>>61341946

I worked at a school district in IT and had a wifi deadzone from a microwave being used in the break room for teachers

>>61340961

i bought my laptop at a discount because it was the last one at the store and it was the display model

3 months later i started getting weird green bars flickering all over the screen and i could hear a loud ass fan inside (almost certainly GPU fan)

i had them repair it since it was under warranty and the repair guy was bullshitting me by saying "i dont notice any green bars and i dont hear anything" to which i said "bullshit" and told him i have a recording of both the green bars and the noise.

they replaced the GPU fan for free and i haven't had a problem since. i think switching to ubuntu helped because now my entire computer doesn't heat up to the temperature of the fucking sun delivering all my data to the NSA or whatever.

Fuck no, otherwise we wouldn't have this happening at my work constantly

I remember going to a friend's house and he was like do you want to play computer games and like sure so we go into his room.

His room smells like ash, something is wrong. He sits down and boots up some shitty free to play FPS called Blacklight and that's when I saw it.

His keyboard was completely covered in dried up weed, tobacco and knife marks on the wrist rest.

He fucking uses his keyboard as a weed chopping board and joint rolling station. The keys were covered in ash like he flicks his joints at the keyboard so the keys were black as fuck and this was all normal to him he just kept playing while I was cringing at that fucking disgusting keyboard.

I wish I took a picture because the keyboard looked Ike that Game boy that survived Vietnam.

My friend introduced me to this girl at a party a few months back. Nice enough girl, pretty easy to talk to.
Later on we're chatting about interests and hobbies. I sperg out and talk about tech. Turns out her desktop is BSODing on a fairly regular basis, so she invites me over to take a look at it. Usually I don't go out of my way to help others with tech-related issues (especially when no money is involved), but I figure the girl is cute enough. What's more, if I oblige, I might even get laid.
I walk in her house and her pitbull is going fucking nuts. I barely survive the mauling and we head upstairs to her bedroom where the PC resides.
Her room is a fucking disaster. Clothes strewn all over the floor. Dark sheets blocking all sunlight from entering the room. Messages scribbled in marker and paint plastered all over the walls. There's a fucking dead tarantula in a plastic box atop what looks appears to be a dresser, but there's garbage piled so high you can't really be sure. She says the tarantula is "moulting." Apparently it's been "moulting" for an entire year. Next to the dead tarantula, a water bottle with some sort of fungus growing inside.
And then there's the PC.
The keyboard is black as tar with weed crumbs and pills everywhere. At least four ashtrays filled with cigarette butts. The smell: indescribable. Multiple half-drank two-liters of Pepsi and even a few fucking MLP statues crowd the desk.
Her PC is fucking whirring away in the corner. The thing is emitting sound like a fucking weed-whacker.
I fix the issue as quickly as I can and gtfo. She begs me to stay and asks if I want to get drunk with her later.
Suffice it to say I never saw her again. Thing is she lives really close to me. We're talking a few blocs. I literally avoid her street at all costs.

it's the main network closet, it's got POTS hardware from the 60's being run concurrently with a shitty VoiP system, 3 non-functioning VPS's and a firewall that is half dead
