  1. Mein #Lenovo #Thinkpad #T590 fährt korrekt hoch, Display bleibt dunkel (mit Taschenlampe sieht man schwach den Anmeldebildschirm).
    Da ist offenbar Sicherung des Backlights gestorben, vermutlich durch defektes Displaykabel im Scharnier.
    Da ich weder Equipment / Erfahrung / Ehrgeiz im SMD-Löten habe - gibt es in #Karlsruhe einen seriösen Laden, der solche #Reparatur​en (Sicherung- und Kabeltausch) zu realistischen Preisen macht? Oder gehe ich zum #Repaircafe?

  22. I forgot to mention: if you're in the #YQR / Regina area, tomorrow (Saturday 8 August 2026) is the #Regina Repair Cafe for this month. It's at the Victoria Square Mall, so lots of parking. It runs 10am - 4pm.

    If you have stuff that is not working or broken, there's a good chance one of us volunteers can fix it for you. And it's free! We help keep stuff from ending up in the landfill before its time, and save you the expense of having to replace it.

    And yes, we fix stuff you can't get fixed "professionally" because no one fixes small appliances and whatnot any more, because everyone says "Just buy a new one, it's cheaper". Not everyone can afford to "just" replace stuff, and there's the whole environment thing.

    I guess we're adding a fourth "R" to the circle of life: reduce, re-use, repair, recycle.

    I'm just a volunteer, not an organizer or official publicist or anything like that. But come down and say "Hi".

  23. 😎 Stay cool with Repair Cafe! We'll be meeting at the Oakton Library on Saturday, August 15th, from 12:15pm-2:15pm.

    We're also still seeking volunteers for repairers, knife sharpeners, and childcare. If you know someone who might be a good fit, here's our signup link: volunteernow.volunteerfairfax. or just email me at [email protected]

  24. @aptronym At the risk of getting labeled "the annoying repair clinic guy"...

    Volunteer or patronize your local Repair Café/Clinic and build relationships!

    It's a great way to meet your neighbors!

    You have a built-in subject of conversation!

    If you're fixing, you get to poke new, weird things!

    If you're bringing something, you can save money and keep a thing going instead of throwing it away!

    It's a ton of fun, and you get to justify your special interest in some specific household appliance.

  25. Today was this month's Repair Cafe in my city. I think it also marks a full year I've been volunteering at them. I enjoy it a lot.

    After last months good results - everything brought to me successfully fixed *except* one item - I got exactly the same result today. A bunch of successes, and one failure. And it's a weird and annoying coincidence - they are basically the same thing, #Sony all-in-one bookshelf #stereo systems. You know the type, they're on the order of a cubic foot and look like a small stack of stereo equipment units, but it's just a cosmetic look. Inside, the tuner, preamp, amp, CD player / changer, tape deck are all one thing. #Boombox in a suit, basically.

    Both times, I figured out what was wrong - but I couldn't get to the bits I needed to actually fix them. I got stumped trying to take the front #fascia off the chassis. There's usually a few screws to take the back and/or top off, and then some #clips holding the front fascia to the (usually) one-piece sheet metal sides and bottom. Taking a #spudger to them releases all along the top and sides, but at the bottom of the fascia, it doesn't release - there's something weird about the clips I can't see, and I don't see any #screws responsible, inside or out. I don't want to force it more than I have because it will break.

    Any Sony-heads out there know the secret with these things? They're from the 80s and 90s, at least the ones brought into me.

  26. Today was the culmination of weeks of planning and preparation by my amazing wife, and thanks to her and the amazing volunteers today the Buckden Repair Café was successful in repairing around 50 items, keeping them out of landfill, saving people money and in some cases preserving something of great sentimental or emotional value. The forces of capitalism and neoliberalism may be strong, but they cannot beat us and we will build something better from the parts. #onegoodthingtoday #positivevibes #repaircafe

  27. The next #Regina Repair Cafe is tomorrow! Boy, time flies. It seems like just a month ago that we did the last one.

    This one is at the Victoria Square mall. It runs from 10am to 4pm as usual. Advance bookings of repair appointments have closed, but they do take walk-ins when time and volunteers are available - I've never seen a walk-in turned away. For some reason, lots of people book appointments and then don't show up, so there's a fair bit of time freed up from that.

    I'm just a volunteer, not an organizer. If you have electronics, small appliances, tools or "general repairs" that could use a (free!) look-at, diagnosis, and possible repair, come down and see me. That's my usual remit.

    Virtually anything else can also be looked at; there are many volunteers covering every possible category from bicycle fixes to repairing garments to tuning up guitars.

    Helping to keep stuff in the hands of people that use it, rather than it ending up in the landfill for want of a small repair, is rewarding for me.
