The Nintendo method

So, suddenly, after five years of comfortable daily reading on my clara hd, it died. No reaction what so ever, even though the battery was at 80%.

I tried every solution I could find on the internet and slowly accepted that I would have to buy a new kobo.

Then inspiration hit me and I remembered two things. First, the reason for why the hardware might be broken is because I dropped it on the floor the other day. Second, I remembered that banging on my old 8-bit Nintendo when I was 8 years old actually made the games work.
So, I dropped it again. And what do you know!? It f****** worked!!!

What a great day.

That's definitively something worth considering the next time it stops working, and according to ninteno logics , it will. Quite soon. 😉 It's a matter of persistence.
