Empathy with machinery, particularly computers...

I will say this though...

In case anyone finds this thread looking for info about how to clean your computer with an air compressor...

You need to spray the air at nothing for a while before you point it at your computer...

The hoses get moisture in them and a fair bit of moisture will come out when you first turn it on.

You gotta spray it at your skin for a while so you can feel whether or not there's any moisture.

I am not saying the best way to do this is to use a shop air compressor.

That's just what I did.

And I did it because canned air is retardedly expensive...

Why am I going to buy canned air when I have a huge air compressor instead??

I am just saying...

For me, this was the answer. If you don't have a shop air compressor then canned air is probably the solution.

For anybody who does have a shop air compressor or knows someone who does...

Just remember to run it for a while before you actually use it to blow the dust out because there will be moisture...

Test it on your skin first, spray it on yourself and then walk away for a minute so you can feel if there's moisture on your skin.

You'll be able to tell. But yeah I mean, you just use air on it willy-nilly and you're gonna end up with moisture coated computer insides.

To be fair I'm sure the moisture is never entirely out of it.

You could also do what these guys did...



A leaf blower! ROFL!
