@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Hmmm, so it is permanent damage. Damn! :-( I’m no electronics guy, but I’d suspect it to be broken, if unplugging it and plugging it in again doesn’t fix it. Kinda doubt that a repair shop will get it going again. I have no idea where I would bring it over here. The best I can think of is to ask the volunteers at the repair café if they have any suggestions, I reckon they’re not able to fix it either. But that place is only open once a month.

How much of your screen is gone by now? Looks like a lot.

Wow, crazy. A decade ago, I think I only experienced power outages three or maybe four times in my entire life. Since then, they became a bit more frequent. Probably five or six, maybe more. Not sure how many of these events are attributed to construction incidents, where an excavator ripped a power line apart. Last time, loggers threw a tree in an overhead power line, so the power company had to disconnect my area from the grid.
