War at the borders. Sad day in modern history. As if the pandemic wasn't enough, in a moment, normal life turned into a war video game for so many people. A game of power, intimidation, aggression and insanity at the expense of innocent lives facing real tragedies.
My educated guess is the old design's slightly undersized thermistor cracked over time and arced to nearby components thereby destroying them or making them behave erratically, with cascading effects, eventually blowing up the NTC and possibly other tiny neighboring SMDs. (4/6)
The good news is although the PSU suddenly died and tripped both the branch as well as the main circuit breakers it didn't affect the rest of my expensive PC which is commendable. (3/6)
Apparently the NTC blew up, the APFC converter, the bridge rectifier and a bunch of SMDs shorted out and rendered the PSU unusable. I don't have replacement components for now so I tossed it aside as a side project repair for another time if I ever find them in stock. (2/6)
Let's become a mighty Valkyrie to repel the forces of the underworld from invading Asgard in a rhythm-action rogue-like FPS where you must shoot, jump and dodge to the beat of an epic rock soundtrack in a randomly generated dungeon. #BulletsPerMinute twitch.tv/cgspr
Time flies so fast. Apparently, it's already been three years. Here's to many more! #MyTwitterAnniversary
Marbles on Stream kept freezing so we had some fun in Immortal Redneck instead. See you next time! If you know a fix for the marbles game freezing let me know. Nothing changed on my end. #marblesonstream #ImmortalRedneck
