What's the dumbest thing you've done to fix a tech issue? - Lemmy.ca

Dead PC.

Unplug PC.

Lick finger.

Stick finger against 3 metal bits where cord goes on power supply.

Plug in PC.

PC works.

I had a similar issue where a dead PC was resurrected after swapping the power cable. It’s never been a fix since, but I still try it.
If you don’t test for it, it WILL rear it’s ugly head again.
