Are we sure that Oldbot is electronic and not clockwork?

Paper towels or rags work so much better. Who started that thing about rice?

Oh look. It’s Count Botula rejuvenating in his coffin.

“Rice and drying” instead of “rise and shine”, huh?

Dry rice baths, next Yoga fad.

He said rice not rice pudding!!!

White rice when he goes in, brown rice when he comes out?

(⚆﹏ʖ ⚆)

Cost of the rice needed and delivered in space for Oldbot, too much. Drop Oldbot off for re-entry.

How can something that feels so right be wrong?

You need to wash it off with distilled water, then store vertically to drain, rotating on a different axis every day for three days in a warm dry place. This will give you plenty of time to shop for a new device. :)

He deserves it for wetting himself.

Nephew ran into the problem with smartphone. Didn’t want to wait on rice. Put it in a vacuum chamber. Dropped the boiling point down to room temperature. Fully functional after a few minutes. Perfectly dry.

I guess Oldbot had accident.

Incidentally, today I replaced a computer I’ve owned for nearly ten years. My previous ones lasted about four. Farewell, my personal Oldbot.
