15:48 <whitequark> okay what the fuck

15:48 <whitequark> that can't be real

15:54 <whitequark> god

15:54 <DocScrutinizer05> LOL

15:55 <DocScrutinizer05> NOT ME! WAS NOT ME!

15:55 wej has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]

15:57 <wpwrak> all of a sudden, http://www.almesberger.net/misc/idbg/ looks quite sane

15:58 <DocScrutinizer05> http://zremcom.ru/article/interesting/36-samremont WTF of the day

15:59 <DocScrutinizer05> did he throw that thing on a subway power rail or what?

16:00 wej has joined #qi-hardware

16:01 <whitequark> which one?

16:08 <DocScrutinizer05> the last link

16:08 <DocScrutinizer05> I don't even know if that's one or more devices

16:08 <DocScrutinizer05> or one in many pieces, or whatever

16:09 <DocScrutinizer05> it all looks like a 50kA surge rushed over it

16:09 <whitequark> ummm

16:09 <whitequark> it has 11 photos

16:11 <whitequark> which ones do you mean?

16:12 <whitequark> if you mean the 4th with capacitors, the repairperson has soldered the blown caps of capacitors together

16:12 <whitequark> if you mean the 7th, it's the thermal grease

16:14 <DocScrutinizer05> ooh

16:15 <DocScrutinizer05> and what happened to that nvidia thing?

16:15 <DocScrutinizer05> 3rd photo

16:15 <DocScrutinizer05> that looks like after atomic blast

16:19 <whitequark> "if a BGA chip doesn't want to desolder, you can of course tear it off, and then put it back on superglue, the owner won't even notice"

16:20 <whitequark> all examples are from different devices

16:41 <DocScrutinizer05> whitequark: hehe, so a pun

16:45 <whitequark> pun?

16:53 <DocScrutinizer05> sort of joke, irony, whatever

16:54 <whitequark> I'm actually not sure if that was a joke

16:54 <whitequark> given the other things on that page...

17:00 sb0 has joined #qi-hardware

17:09 <DocScrutinizer05> I guess the whole page is a joke

17:10 <DocScrutinizer05> when a capacitor vented, there's pretty little use in soldering the vent to seal it again

17:16 <whitequark> no, it's not a joke

17:16 <whitequark> it's a list of real repairs made by very incompetent people

17:16 <whitequark> "repairs"

17:58 <DocScrutinizer05> aah ok

17:58 <DocScrutinizer05> (pic) *AWESOME*

17:59 <DocScrutinizer05> "real repairs made by very incompetent people" counts as joke in my book :-)

17:59 <DocScrutinizer05> a "WTF" site

18:00 <DocScrutinizer05> "...the owner won't even notice" makes sense from this POV
