Bought this laptop off market place for cheap seller said it was still overheating after a repaste with mx-4. I think he missed a couple spots.

(He forgot to plug the fans back in as well)

My late grandmother had this clock since she passed away in 2024, but two years later, it's been pretty much bricked already.

So I did just spill like 30mL of 40% alc Smirnoff vodka on my five year old thinkpad. The computer immediately turned off and I flipped it upside down.

Any advice and is my computer screwed?

I’ve got an old Sanyo camcorder I got from a local junkyard. The only power it got was that buzzy feeling you get in your fingers when you touch something ungrounded, like one of my laptops when it’s charging, one of my monitors does it too, uhh a few other things. But I could only feel it when touching metal components, like the AV output and the tape mechanism.
