you buy a new one, because you're made of money obviously.

Wash it out with distilled water
that doesnt conduct electricity either

doesn't conduct till particles get mixed in with it.
I would be too nervous to try distilled water, but Ive heard it works.
Rubbing alcohol works too.
I thought distilled water becomes undistilled as soon as it touches like anything
i drink only bottled distilled water to keep my body clean and my chakra pure

Yeah, it's very easy to contaminate and render it unusable.
Mineral oil aquarium PC's don't just look awful they're a pain in the ass to attach peripherals to. Yeah the Reactor was expensive and not really upgradable but THAT was oil cooling done right.

Given, I have a dinky little toyota, but regardless.
Update on The Great Office Nerf War:
I am attempting to curry favor with the interns via bribery with cookies, to secure cannon fodder for the increasingly-violent war. It does not seem to have been effective. Note to self: cannon fodder does not like being referred to as "cannon fodder".
I suspect an alliance between the iOS developer and the Android developer, due to their proximity and complete lack of cover between them. An alliance of that sort is logical, and I have noted few hostilities between them.
The war may soon extend to the air - RC helicopters have been brought in. I must find where I stashed mine, and see if it still holds a charge.
And for the record, you can totally take one down with a Nerf Mega Dart. Easy target when hovering, but very tricky when mobile.
Google sold Motorola to Lenovo.
Oh boy.
Is it just me or can you not pause a youtube video if it has a video ad before it?

It's a very expensive, but well made mineral oil PC. Some guy in Minnesota is trying to eke around $2k out of it still on craigslist :v:

Th Hardcorepc Reactor was a lot better:
[img]http://www.maximumpc.com/files/u53951/System_Hardcore.jpg[/img]
It even comes with oil circulation and radiator to cool the oil off:
[img]http://www.3dnews.ru/assets/external/illustrations/2008/10/23/100202.jpg[/img]
The only problem is that it costed like $10,000 and it uses a proprietary motherboard, which they never upgraded after this PC was released.
Nontheless it's still cool and sexy as hell.

You can upgrade the CPU pretty easily (apparently the Xeon 775 mod works too) but upgrading the GPU's required milling new blocks.

Upgrading the CPU won't get you too far though, it's the chipset that holds you back up until a certain point.

Looking forward to windows 8 on a touchscreen on a budget.
So last night my car started leaking gas from the tank. So this morning we had it towed to a shop.
I then find out while I'm texting the shop owner that it's on its way that it was going I noticed that low and behold my S4 glass had cracked.

Be honest, did you do it?
fucking terrorist
I don't think the tank will be a big deal. I think it's just a fuel pump seal issue.
