It might look like a clickbait still from a random YouTube video, but removing a cracked camera lens on a phone requires some creativity. Without professional tools, one clever approach is to glue a screw to the broken glass and gently pull it out.

The ingenuity and resourcefulness of people at our Friday Nighthack sessions never fail to impress!

Sometimes, unexpected and even borderline improper things happen during our Nighthack events—like repairing a laptop power board belonging to one of our members! We're happy to report that the laptop is now fully operational, and so is its owner. 🛠️💻

P.S. Nighthacks (our open fridays) are happening each week! Join us from 8 PM onward.
Always stay up-to-date with our events on Meetup meetup.com/pl-PL/hackerspacekr

Wir werden auf dem #fedimeetruhr24 neben vielem anderen, auch über das Thema „ #Administration und #Technik“ sprechen und haben dafür nun viele #Hackspaces im #Ruhrgebiet angeschrieben. Wir freuen uns auf euch!

Es bleibt aber ein Treffpunkt für die gesamte Community! Mehr unter fedimeet.ruhr.social

fedimeet.ruhr.socialFediverse Meeting Ruhrgebiet - Willkommen!

Late-night tinkering with the router, which was begging for an update. To stay connected, it's nice to hook up with some serial action, but our Mikrotik doesn't have one. It does have USB, though, which is where the USB-RS232 adapter comes into play, followed by a null-modem cable, then another RS232-USB adapter, and finally into the laptop.
In the end, everything works beautifully, and the two gigabit connections from ITH are blazing fast!
