enby nerd with disabilities still needs help repairing their PC to get back to work

(it's me!)

So close, so will keep posting in the hopes this might happen this month, still. Thankful beyond words to everyone! 💜

My motherboard died, and I've not been able to accept contract work since, which have been my sole income stream for some time. My setup is ~7 years old, so I'm stuck replacing my CPU & RAM in addition to the mobo.
On my own I'm stuck: no 'puter -> no work -> no funds to fix 'puter

A dear friend set up a #GoFundMe to raise the funds I need (gofundme.com/f/new-pc-for-shis) which is on the home stretch.
If you have the means & want to help, every bit helps! I've listed other ways to contribute in the 👇 replies 👇

I'm looking at the lowest-priced locally-available mATX AM4 board, Ryzen 5 5500 & 2x16GB kit of DDR4, the cost + S&H of which the GFM goal should just cover.

help a queer disabled nerd get back to work?

Still at 71% so will keep posting; optimistic I might get to start accepting gigs again this month, still, if I can get eyeballs on this 💜 Massive thanks to everyone who's helped!

My PC unexpectedly died recently, meaning I cannot currently do the contract work that has been my sole income since I lost my previous game dev job.
Without help, I'm stuck: I can't work w/o a PC, and I can't fix PC w/o funds,
so a good friend made a #GoFundMe (gofundme.com/f/new-pc-for-shis) to help.

If you have the means, any little bit helps! Other ways to help in 👇 reply 👇

📢 Bundesweiter symbolischer #Streik von #BIPOC und #Migras: Fr.,14.02.2025
Symbolisch weil nicht alle streiken können. Ggf können sie außerhalb der Arbeitszeit an dem Tag
* demonstrieren
* nichts kaufen
* Sichtbarkeit auf SocialMedia erhöhen. Einige tun das mit einer Bildkachel und einem Satz. Ich sah "Ich bin nicht euer Sündenbock" uvm.
* Nicht Migra / BIPOC? Zeige Solidarität.

A dear friend set up a GoFundMe to help me replace my unexpectedly died motherboard (and the necessary components that I can't migrate from my current setup; CPU & RAM) so I could resume working.

After the generous support that helped me afford my new anti blood-clot meds (love them, had grapefruit for the first time in 20 years as new meds don't restrict diet) I was hesitant to ask for help, but realistically I'm stuck without help: I can't work w/o a working PC, and I can't fix PC w/o funds. So if you can, every little bit helps me get back to doing work to help make ends meet again.

To anyone with experience with #Dell laptops: Just tried to turn on my #Latidude with my charger plugged in. The power LEDs turned on instantly when I plugged in the charger, both LEDs just stay white, the other LEDs stay off. Power on does not work. Already tried a battery reset and unplugging the battery. Weird: parts of the laptop (not the battery) seem to be heating up even though it is not powering on.

Any ideas? 🥲
