It’s odd that that happened, I’ve removed batteries a long time ago (these laptops have 3 separate batteries), and while there was some corrosion from one of them I cleaned it all up and it worked for several years.
I suspect something in power suppply (which is built into the laptop), so gonna have to take it apart which is annoying to say the least (brittle plastics, flimsy cables).

The indictment of former F.B.I. director, James B. Comey
was just two pages long and contained so little detail that it was hard for legal experts to assess its merits.
Some former government lawyers, as well as prominent Democrats, said the case appeared so flimsy that it was likely to fail.
Some Republicans also expressed concerns

Brief Comey Indictment Prompts Questions and Criticism
The two-page indictment of James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, offered little indication of the evidence that would be presented at a trial. Some legal experts called it flimsy and dangerous.

High resolution Fluorescence lifetime IMaging Micro-Endoscopy (FLIMME) using a single multimode fiber
Endoscopic optical imaging using a single multimode fiber (MMF) has emerged as a promising approach for highly compact, minimally invasive, and high-resolution imaging. Unlike conventional fiber bundles, MMF-based endomicroscopes exploit the controlled excitation of multiple spatially overlapping modes in a single MMF. of core diameters of tens of micrometers. to deliver and collect light to form images with sub-micrometer resolution. Here, we introduce a fluorescence lifetime imaging microscop…

Apple’s Thinnest iPhone Still Stands Up to Repairs
To be honest, we were holding our breath for the iPhone Air. Thinner usually means flimsier, harder to fix, and more glued-down parts. But the iPhone Air proves…

A district court judge dismissed most of the SEC’s claims in July 2024. SolarWinds and the SEC recently reached a settlement on the remaining charges.
The SEC's lawsuit was flimsy, …

I still would like to understand the no penalty decision for Ekitike. I mean, sure, there’s the en vogue precedent of ruling in whichever way harms #LFC maximally, but there is usually some flimsy rationale trotted out.

In light of "Antifa" being designated a "terrorist organization," a (very mildly) good thing that anyone can do is say publicly: "I am antifa."
Antifa is *already* a decentralized non-organization, but throwing up enough chaff that dragnet "surveillance" of online spaces becomes useless is a good thing. I promise you really don't want to live in the world in which whoever the president considers "antifa" has been hunted down and locked up, but thankfully, the president doesn't have the resources to make that happen without lots of local police cooperation. Local police are generally champing at the bit to bash leftists under the flimsiest of pretexts and already have programs doing undercover surveillance of leftist spaces, but they also don't want to look like fools or be mocked by their communities, so a strong public response indicating sympathy for and/or real solidarity with "antifa" could influence things right now.
