Why don't they like each other? Does everything get fucked up or do just certain parts of whatever you got wet get fucked up?
Surprise, almost everything that can be effected by electro-magnetism doesn't like H20.
Design with a nice coating or go home.
Cool thread.
Big companies like microsoft are planning to have database centers under water and they already had some small trial runs

water is actually a good insulator. It's all of the impurities in it that cause the problems

This desu sempai.
H2O does nothing to electronics by itself.
If you had 100% pure distilled water and submersed your desktop in it, there's a good chance nothing would happen.
But tap water, pond water, ocean water contains salt, dissolved copper or, if you live in Flint, lead, some water is flurodated.
That's the shit, the shit IN the water, that wrecks your shit.

What if your electronic is turned off? Could the water still damage it if its off the whole time its wet?
>>53762107
Because technology is made from the fire element as seen in AMD processors. Water and fire don't get along.

you could wash a motherboard when off and it'll work perfectly fine when you turn it on as long as it's dried off properly
>>53762388
Why only 30 minutes?
>>53762358
Yes it would be damaged because eletricity doesn't run in destiled water so all static wouldn't dissipate, fulling everything with extra voltage
>>53762358
Generally no. The damage is caused principally by short-circuiting, which can destroy sensitive components. This is why permanent damage can sometimes be prevented by immediately ceasing power supply (removing the battery, unplugging) and allowing the device to dry completely over several days.

I want to say like the seal wears off or something and the water goes in, but I'm not an expert on waterproofing things
>>53762407
nice meme
