My personal laptop is out of commission until Monday. The power cable has been dealing with a bad kink and it's been getting worse. A few months ago I wrapped some tape around it to try and protect it. Yesterday morning, as I picked the laptop up I heard crackling and looked at the tape on the cable abd saw sparks. Needless to say, the cable was immediately unplugged.
I ordered a replacement with same-day delivery but sadly when it arrived it turns out I had ordered the wrong replacement. I've ordered another one, which is slated to arrive tomorrow. I'll have to survive until then.
