gollark: Anyway, what do the wise people of this channel think I should do regarding this? I can probably:- ignore the hypothetical capacitor and hope it hypothetically exploding is not important and has not caused/will not cause other damage- send it in for repair under the standard warranty and suffer for some time- upgrade the warranty (fairly cheap) for onsite support, somehow resolve logistical issues surrounding this, and have it maybe get fixed- borrow equipment from somewhere to attempt repairs myself
gollark: The "Ackerman routing protocol" was entirely made up, so yes, that is to be expected.
gollark: (this is over *LAN*; powerline adapters over really bad wiring or something)
gollark: I know exactly what the issue is, I just can't do anything about it.
gollark: The best I can do is synchronizing most of my data (via syncthing), quite slowly.
