Bad Things That Make Us Upset

My laptop broke.

Mine did last summer. It sucks

My laptop broke.

Nooooooooo, what happened ? Any chance it can be fixed.

Broken tech always sucks as we're so reliant on it.

I made a hot water bottle, it had a hole in it, which I never noticed, so when I put pressure on it the water came gushing out. It went everywhere, but mostly on my laptop, there was no saving it. Luckily, I have an ipad, so I can still do everything I did on the laptop.

Did you get burnt by the hot water ?

I dropped my phone right into a glass of water once. It died despite all efforts.

[Dels]

No, I pretty much dropped it right away but was still too slow for the water to get out. I suppose the fact that I didn't get burnt should be an upside to the whole debacle.

If the harddrive didn't get damaged then you could take it out and plug it into another computer using one of these;

If your laptop was Windows then you'll have to plug it into another PC or laptop to see the data as i don't think Windows NTFS is compatible with iPad.
The difference between the two USB enclosures above is one is USB 3.0 which will transfer the data faster so long as you plug it into a USB 3.0 port (usually a blue colour) on the PC/laptop.

Dortmund blow it again.

[Dels]

I couldn't believe it. They could have done something truly amazing but blew it.

Unfortunately, Dortmund bottled it four times during the season when they were top, losing the next game to allow Bayern to take control again. I gave up watching when it was 2-0 because BD looked & were playing as though terrified of the understandable pressure.

At least BM started their sacking of management straight after the whistle. Classy as ever!
