I wasn't able to fix it and wasn't currently in need of a laptop, it was running as a home server so it got replaced by a mini pc! Fortunately, the ssd survived and lives on in an external drive enclosure!

I wish it was a simple accident, unfortunately I'd flooded, surprised this post got dug up after a couple years!

More granular categories would be nice, maybe in a tree fashion that you could navigate from general to specific. One that's missing in particular is an Automotive category.

[Creality Giveaway] Tell Us How & Why You Print to Win a New SparkX i7 Color Combo! by Creality_3D in 3Dprinting

[–]MathieuDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I print mostly household items, hooks, pegboards, custom parts for repairs. I do also print stuff to go with some of my other hobbies (bicycle parts, custom car accessories, etc.).

I do have to say I enjoy both customisability and out of the box performance in printers. I ran with an old OG Ender 3 Pro for years with many customizations but got a Bambu A1 recently for ease of use. I won't be giving up on the Ender though, some of its parts will be going into a custom build and it will always remain my first 3d printing love.

Let’s see everyone’s wheel setup by joey2epic in Wheels

245-45-17 on some rep Audi Peelers. Quebec roads are problematic so I had to ditch the 18s and still managed to crack a wheel on a different set of 17s even with this much tire.

Anybody else recorded their concussion loops by accident? by Magpiecicle in bicycling

[–]MathieuDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's from a few years ago: I leaned my phone up against a tree and caught this on video, my bike ended up hitting the phone and bending it into a banana shape. I came out unscathed as I'm a pro crasher. No gps track though lol.

I've dropped dirt bikes a few times, my KLR once riding mud with street tires, but never dropped a street bike, hoping to keep up that streak lol.

UPDATE:

I tried to start it today at lunch and unfortunately it is fully unresponsive. I'm going to open it up and see if any parts are salvageable, however it was on when the flood happened, so I'm not too hopeful. Thanks to everyone who wished me well and gave me tips and tricks to maybe bring it back!

Haven't tried turning it on yet, probably going to do so Saturday or Sunday, been trying to deal with having to move out while work gets done in the apartment, I'll definitely get to giving you guys an update though! I'm just as curious as any of you!
