if you ever dropped water or liquids on a notebook and placed it in a bucket full of rice afterwards, did the notebook work again? (lemmy.ml)

rice absorbs moisture.

Curious if this works to recover notebooks or other electronics.

Use desiccants instead of rice and never power it on until completely dry

Yeah the rice is only going to get tiny particles of rice inside the device and otherwise not assist in drying out even slightly making the issue worse
