  • TL;DR: The MacBook orientation sensor

    1. Disassemble the MacBook until you take out the orientation sensor (this step is the hardest)
    2. Lay it flat and give 5V power
    3. Press the first button
    4. Wait for lights to solidify
    5. Press the second button
    6. Assemble entire thing back again

    …wasn’t nearly as exciting as I or the title expected. C’mon now, why clickbait; also why is the comments section treating this so godly

    EDIT: I just realized they DEVELOPED THE CALIBRATION SOFTWARE TO MAKE THIS THIS EASY. It’s still just the angle sensor though, which is a very small fraction, but still very important regardless. You need to buy the software (one time) for €169 though
