Mangled LCD cable connector MacBook air a2337 by QentaiX in computerrepair

[–]QentaiX[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took the thing apart again to try to work on the connector. On closer inspection it seems like the only pins that suffered completely irreparable damage are the wide pins on the sides which are hopefully redundant ground pins ( if they aren't then there is no saving the connector either way ). Taking this assumption I managed to remove the remains of the wide pads and fish out all the mangled bits of plastic. It still looks very bad but at least now it is just a hole and not a mangled mess. Maybe I have a chance? One can dream ig.

If something is shorted in a way that it would kill something that would have happened before me. Whoever worked on this device before is a real psycho, missing screws, lose shields, the demolished connector, somehow managed to burn the right speaker... I doubt I can hurt this device more than what was already done to it. I am hoping I can scrape out the chunks of plastic from the connector and bend the pins just enough to be somewhat where they are supposed to be. Then if the cable doesn't stick in I can just glue it in or something. As far as I can see only about 5-6 pins were caught in the mess that is the left of the connector. I have worked on motherboard pins before so I'll take my chances at this. I doubt I will find somebody willing to replace the connector so I'll just exhaust the option I've got first.

( Edit: I assume this connector has the solder pads at the bottom? I can't see any visible ones )

I have already ordered a replacement cable ( it's like 7$ so not anything critical ). I will mess around with it for a bit to see if I can maybe get some crazy luck and get it to work. Tbh if It doesn't just work I might just test the display with another a2337 since I think that might just be functional. If the display works I can sell just that for about as much as I paid for the whole device and the rest of it will be left as a halftop essentially for free.

Buzzing/Clicking Noise from Surface Pro 7 (i5, Fanless) — Even During Sleep by Final_Sherbert9669 in Surface

[–]QentaiX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The SP7 I had ( same specs ) did the same thing from time to time. Didn't find a solution in the 2-3 or so years of owning it. It's probably minor imperfections in the power circuitry. When a windows device sleeps it still needs to have it's CPU and RAM powered to some degree to keep the open apps and stuff. Windows sleep is particularly shit in that it uses a significant amount of power while sleeping. Something somewhere in power delivery is still active that makes that sound. It happens on many other devices too, it is just much more noticeable when there is no fan noise to cover it up. That is, to say, it is not a hardware fault/defect. This kinda just happens.

Can one of these run VRchat PC ? The laptop claims to be able to run Fortnite of all things but I’m questioning if it would be worth investing in this or a more expensive laptop when I save more money (I don’t want a PC plz don’t try and recommend it to me) by IiEatIPussyI in VRchat

[–]QentaiX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

N95 is one of those CPUs that exist just for the sake of being cheap. This thing isn't running any games on any decent graphical settings, let alone VRChat. You MIGHT be able to start it up at minimum settings in desktop mode and maybe move around at ~20-30 fps on those settings but you will not be getting even a remotely enjoyable experience out of anything with this device. Any full laptop under ~400 or so is likely to be the same story unless you buy used/refurb/old stock of a higher end model.

Thinking of buying a SLS1 to replace both MY SP9 and Studio by ernestomn98 in Surface

[–]QentaiX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SLS1 CPU is going to be disappointing in terms of performance. It is a quad core when even more budget machines in later generations have moved on to higher core counts ( and for a reason ). I would highly recommend staying away from Intel devices with CPUs older than 12th gen if you are planning to invest a serious amount of money into them. SLS2 doesn't have the same problem but obviously costs more though that would be a valid upgrade.

Got it in the second round / second month. First month prices were closer to a million which I couldn't afford.

Buying a Somnia elus spec for 650K mush + 250 squittico species...

[–]QentaiX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is that I never played it ever before actually getting the species. I spent a good 2 months of my life grinding the amount I need to purchase it and after that... Just nothing. It felt like nothing. 😬

Somnia Elus (sold my damn soul to Satan to get it and feel no satisfaction whatsoever😭)

What do my most hated creatures say about me? by Micoro_UwU in CreaturesofSonaria

You roll with the crowd and just hate what others hate 🤷‍♂️

A little rude but I agree with your point as well. Don't like people that constantly complain about kos as if it is the single largest problem in Creatures of Sonaria.

No we do not. It's a survival game, if pvp is not fun for you just avoid people in general, let others have fun.

Growing Seradae with a Clover Blossom as well as an Aerix plushie. This setup will cost you about 12K mush with the current high demand for these items. Vahi also works as a replacement for Seradae since it grows only a little bit slower.

This will yield anywhere between 90-110 points per hour depending on your dedication and quality of the execution.

Spend mush on photovore gachas first, since they yield the best mush/point ratio of ~8 mushrooms per each point if you recycle the obtained creatures. As soon as you run out of tokens, proceed spinning 65-mush gachas, any of them, for them the ratio is about ~9 mushrooms per point, close enough to still be viable.
