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.

No, this method did not help. Once water touches what it's supposed to, it can't untouch.

This isn't strictly true, besides the fact that using rice will only do more harm than good.
