Water damage can cause all kinds of problems, some of which may not be fixable without a board replacement. Assuming your device doesn’t have permanent damage, the important thing is to try and get all the water out of the phone. If you haven’t already done so, turn the phone off and put it in a bag of rice (or silica gel packets, if you have them) for a day or two. This should help to draw any moisture out of the phone. Simply leaving it out in the air or trying to shake out the water will not generally work to remove all of the moisture, and it doesn’t take very much to short out a circuit trace. This may not be enough to get everything working, but it should definitely be one of the first things you try whenever you have a water-damaged electronic device. You should seriously consider having a repair shop look at it, even if it starts working after it is dried out. Corrosion on the circuits is progressive and will eventually kill the board if it is not properly cleaned and the damage repaired.
I realize it’s far too late an answer for you, but for others reading this later, OWC now sells compatible SSDs. But they say they are “designed for APFS” and as such require macOS High Sierra or later. I have no idea why this should matter, but they say it does.
Yes, but you need to add a cable to connect it. If you buy the SSD from OWC, they sell a kit which includes the cable and tools (for an extra $20-40, depending on what size/model SSD you get).
Good review, but I’ve found that these small solder suckers don’t do a very good job. The much larger “Soldapult” (https://www.edsyn.com/product/DS017.html) provides much more suction and can often completely clear a joint in one use.
I would strongly suggest that after cleaning the screen in the tank (the first bullet of this step), you assemble everything and give it a test. Everything from that point forward is more difficult and may result in damage if you’re not very careful, so it’s better to not proceed further if you don’t have to.
According to Keurig (and my own experience), you can press up on the K-cup holder from the underside to pop it out of the brewer. I find this much easier than trying to lift from the top.
My guess is that they expect media professionals (the obvious target market) to be using their own audio interfaces, probably attached via USB or Thunderbolt.
Which is perfectly understandable, since most people running a desktop system (who care about sound quality) typically use external speakers anyway. My home Mac (a 2012 mini and its predecessor, a 2002 PowerMac) is connected to a Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 system and I wouldn’t have it any other way. As far as I’m concerned, Apple could get rid of the built-in speaker altogether on their desktop systems.
I recently found a Magic Trackpad on a junk pile, to find that the batteries are corroded and won’t come out.
I poured a small amount of isopropyl alcohol in the battery cylider, pried with a thin plastic pick and banged it against a table to get out the first battery, but the second one doesn’t want to move.
Any suggestions for how to get it out without destroying the device? The only thing I can think of would be to crazy-glue a thin rod to the top of the battery, maybe pour in some alcohol, and pull/wiggle the battery until it comes out. I’m afraid that any kind of stronger solvent will cause real damage.
90’s silicon may not run as hot as today’s silicon, but many PlayStation units had problems with overheating. A heat sink and a fan would’ve been a good idea.

Yep. I wonder if my 16” long T15 screwdriver (for opening my Mac SE) will work here.

Three AA batteries produce 4.5v. Depending on the components used, a 6v power source might cause damage.
