Potentially putting your pants on fire (literally) near a very sensitive spot is for making a very hot Darwin Award candidate?

The excited guy seems like he got those annoying shocks, but the case is unplugged, maybe he found some money stashed in the cpu cooler, so the computer didn't worked properly, and the fix was take away the money.

about the girl, maybe someone did her really rough and broke a solder joint down there.

He found a Voodoo5 5500 in a dumpster machine.

I prefer to read that series of images as a story. Maybe the dude is just excited about working with narcoleptic soldering girl and sexy soldering girl. That's a higher than average statistic of attractive female engineers who are both clearly down to party.

The cork screw/adjustable wrench one is easily the best one so far. Sure, you might get away with some tool that only a technician would know the real uses for, but a goddamn cork screw? Anyone would understand it's completely misplaced in that image 😁

Hey, Jim from accounting lost his laptop, and happy hour was delayed by 45 minutes to get that shot.

They cropped it out of the frame, but what do you guys wanna bet the model was wearing safety glasses for this pic? Every other one is. Safety first!

Wait, this guy's not wearing safety glasses, but he clearly thinks he's taking that poor video card hostage so I'll give him a pass. I imagine there's a SWAT team in a tense stand-off on the other side of the camera.

Anyway... This is one way of making shure the noise disappear. And never comes back again.

The corkscrew could easily be explained. We have all had one really annoying problem or system that has driven us to drink.

We should be laughing about stupid photographs, and completely posed photographs with models who - regardless of their looks or individual competences - bear no responsibility for whatever stupidity is depicted. That lies entirely with the photographer about whom we know nothing.

So to go back on topic (if not quite as vintage as I'd like):

I want to see funny stock photos here!

Here's a classic:

One thing makes total sense though - He has The Verge Antistatic Wrist Band(TM). 😉 Even 2 of them to have extra protection.

Well... Moving on. And I found the perfect way to "patch" a harddrive. 😀

I can hear that image clicking.

the ground of the probe is on the cpu socket lever
Edit: btw i'm pretty sure that the ATX connector pinout isn't correct.
