Cast

gollark: It still seems to *work*, but the noise is annoying and I figure relying on it continuing to work with a capacitor blown or something is maybe not smart.
gollark: The nearest repair centres are, according to the website, quite far away, too.
gollark: My device is still warrantied but not having a laptop for ages while it gets repaired would be very inconvenient, so does anyone know how long this sort of thing generally takes to get fixed (or if there is a simple repair I can do, but I doubt it)?
gollark: I have begun hearing a periodic buzzing-ish noise when heavy GPU loads occur, since hearing a "pop" noise earlier today. I figure this is a failure of the GPU power supply somehow.
gollark: It seems kind of dubious that someone can remotely do serious physical damage to your wireless hardware.
