This happened to me less than a week ago, I spilled a BIG cup of hot coffee on my laptop, I freaked out and was saying "ohsh!t ohsh!t ohsh!t ohsh!t" my gf was watching so she helped me disconnecting it from everything and turn it upside down while I pressed the power button to force shutdown, I was sooo mad, so much stuff I've been working on lately, I had all the adobe files in this laptop and had no backup, so if the hot coffee reached the hdd it was gonna be a sh1tshow.

I took it to my cousins and he helped me opening it up and cleaning with isopropyl alcohol but we could not reach the keyboard insides because we needed a welder to disassemble some parts but the motherboard looked dry for the most part only 2 big drops of coffee with a bit of cream was on one corner and we cleaned it up. I waited for 2 days to let it fully dry, and after the 48 hours I turned it on and everything was perfect except for the sticky keys but that was no problem I had all my files back <3 (luckily I have my secret phrase on a notebook always so at least I'm not loosing my crypto for something like this and I suggest you to do the same).

Has this happened to some of you guys? I was so mad at the time but now it's just another funny story with a happy ending.

In recent history, just a keyboard. About 12 years ago, spilled soda on my laptop. Literal sticky keys until I replaced it because I had no idea how to properly clean it without breaking something.

[Orgy]

you...needed a welder...to access the insides of your keyboard?

w h a t?

Bro, like less than a year after I paid like $800+ for the new Xbox One S I had a BIG cup of water on it and spilled it all right into all the air slots on the top where the fan sits and it broke, so I just let it sit for a few months and forgot it was broke and I turned it on and started playing and it hit me that it was working lol, I was on a lot of drugs when it happened to when it started working so the shit was kinda extra mind blowing. I guess it dried out enough and didn't fry the wires / board since I kept it off the whole time to dry lol

I actually have another Ps4 that someone got drunk and pissed on that I think still works too lmfao, that ones my bro's..

no not me, but a friend of mine had an nice highend alienware laptop few years ago..
a huge glass of cola tipped and felt on it, laptop was ruined since that day keyboard never worked again and issues became popping up with heating n stuff.

tldr; no cola on hardware.

I’ve dropped my phone in the toilet and even rinsed it off under the water faucet. Most newer tech is water proof. Previous from that, I have never spilled anything on my phone thankfully.

Me too! Oh, how small is the world.

Also probably only ever spilled one molecule of water onto my keyboard kek

That sucks but it's good you recovered everything. Around ~5 years ago I accidentally poured a whole styrofoam cup of Mtn Dew down the vent of my Xbox One. It was like a week after I got it, but luckily I sent it back and they sent me another one for free. My heart dropped down to my balls in the moment though lol.

Not long ago I dropped my phone in the toilet. Had to flush it to end it's misery.
It was saved with rice hahahaha

I once spilled egg yolk right on my keyboard laptop and watched it all drain into the cracks between the keys.

That day was not fun.

spilling coffee or any beverage is fine as long as you don't do naughty stuff

[[̲̅$̲̅(̲̅5̲̅)̲̅$̲̅]]

Yes, to both. That is why I enact accident protection on all of my devices now. It's just... needed! Lol

[Aeowulf]

Hah, oh yes. Spilled a Red Bull all over my work laptop once. Sticky keys for the remainder time until I quit. I feel bad for whoever got the laptop next.

always seem to be spilling on my keyboards, but they're easy to clean and cheap to replace, so not as big of a deal.

Spilled a whole jug of gatorade on my laptop once during film in football during highschool. Thank god it was a shitty little chromebook that they provided, but the school almost made me pay $300 for it during the summer but decided against it because they were getting new shipments in for the next year.
