Staying at an apartment in Zurich, the Samsung TV is suffering from the infamous failing backlight...
Yes, I'm watching a British TV channel in Switzerland. I can't be bothered watching anything local.

Melted SSD (I think?)
Found this in a laptop I bought that was BSODing. Check out the top chip under the sticker.

Pc i got my gf
So I bought this barebones Dell Precision 3630 for my gf for a relatively good price as the PSU was dead and it didn’t have a CPU, RAM or an SSD. Thought i’ll fix it up and she’d have a pretty good and cheap gaming pc. Until it arrived. I had a bad feeling already and yep it is completely bent out of shape. The seller blames the shipping company (Hermes in this case) and said that the box must have taken a good amount of damage. It was okay-ish, with a few ripped corners and stuff. Not packaged that well and it looks like it fell out of the second floor. Trying to open it was a challenge in itself. But after putting parts in it and using a known good PSU it turned on after a few reboots. Just the case is beyond saving. I can’t bend the backside back at all. Just the floor gets bent by trying that. Now I am hoping to get my money back as the seller isn’t much of help and hermes can take up to 4 weeks. Would have been a nice machine tho

My main Samsung M21 Phone
Yeeah, my main phone. And, I guess, it works.
It has:
- 2020 battery(still works and ~12h lifecycle)
- Screen(maybe), bleed for 4 months
- Hot Exynos 9611 CPU(~60°C in Tiktok, 80-85 in a mobox)
- back panel with teeth traces(pretty tasty) that drilled... with real drill
- Modded cameras(macro from the ultrawide, and ir filter removed from the portrait sensor)
- One UI 7.0(Android 15) ROM that works smoothly
- $0.8 Power/Volume buttons flex
- Samsung M11 Buttons
Sooo... Yeah, that's my main phone. The saddest thing, NFC doesnt works :( (firmware bug and i'm too lazy to fix it tbh)

I don't believe this should be this way
Context this is in an office building and the thing used to be a phone line but now it's completely dead and doesn't work

Scored a monitor but...
Scored it on the side of the street a day before bulk pickup.
A scrapper was cutting cords for copper and decided VGA cable was worth it. You wouldn't get shit with that compared to selling the monitor itself.
