It spread across the whole sky, a huge flight of sparks and a few parts went down in the sea near Africa.

You can type in asteroid. There are articles from yesterday that the probability of an asteroid hitting the earth in December 2032 is 1:32. This is described as the highest probability measured to date. https://www.welt.de/vermischtes/article255476886/Asteroid-YR4-steuert-Richtung-Erde-Nasa-stuft-Wahrscheinlichkeit-des-Einschlags-deutlich-hoch.html

But Google also says replacement costs 12.80. Ironically, the original is also the cheapest. Ordered, delivered within 2 days and with a Youtube tutorial and a bit of fiddling, changed it myself within 5 minutes.

Cool solution. 😃 I should actually tell my neighbor. Totally nice, but two left hands. His fridge was no longer cooling. Diagnosis: defrost tube blocked. Called in a specialist. He took 70 euros for the journey, looked for the tube, but couldn't clear it because the fridge hadn't defrosted. My neighbor had not been informed of this by customer service beforehand. He then paid another 120 euros for the expert's statement that there was nothing he could do. The specialist came a second time today. The fridge was properly defrosted. The tube was cleaned. Total cost for all the fun: just under 400 euros. Next time he could do it himself, said the neighbor.


I'm always in favor of solving things myself first. There are instructions online for almost everything. Of course, manual skills are an advantage in most cases.

Phew, what prices... best to retrain as a refrigerator expert😂

I needed a little less "craftsmanship". The LED insert is not screwed in, but held in place with plastic snaps (with barbs). I think it was done that way on purpose. So it takes a bit of effort to get the old one out. This is probably too tricky for most people. However, the guy in the video said that in the worst case, the old LED bet breaks. Well, it no longer works anyway 😂

@Rainmann, you don't want to give such an old treasure into someone else's hands.🙂 Although I'm more of a workshop person when it comes to cars. Sure, I'll change a bulb or new windshield wipers myself. But I prefer to play it safe when it comes to "driving-related" things.
