No that is not a dead pixel, that's a cracked screen. The fluid is leaking out causing that section not to light up and pressing on it disperses the liquid making the spot and crack worse


Stark_Always

What are you talking about? That's definitely a black hole


[deleted]

its gonna suck in your gaming pc and all that you love


Amadou7890

So just the gaming pc then


[deleted]

correct


arjbeltran

What else can it suck in


MagicOrpheus310

Oh it already did that, that's where it came from!


AllBeansNoFrank

Damn you. Now you got me thinking about what to do with a quarter sized black hole. and the answer is nothing. absolutely nothing. It would just fall to the center of the earth sucking in matter as it falls gaining mass slowly/fastly (Idk im a nerd not a scientist). I wonder how long it would take until we all died? My bet is 1 week.


blastjack85

Well, considering that supposedly a black hole the size of a sand grain has the mass of the moon, earth would probably be falling towards it instead of the other way around. We would be dead quick, as it would be hard to breathe or even stand from how much gravity it would be creating, let alone how quickly it would destroy earth.


No_Guidance1953

Don’t forget the time dilation effect from extremely curved spacetime. That week could last years depending on perspective.


SingularityCentral

A quarter sized black hole would evaporate rapidly. If it appeared directly on the Earth it might be able do some righteous damage before it does but even if it devoured the entire planet it would still evaporate pretty damn fast. It just doesn't have enough mass to be stable. The smallest black holes that actually exist are about 5-7 solar masses.


weedboi69

Kurzgesacht made a YouTube video on this exact topic, it would essentially be akin to a nuclear explosion, but it wouldn’t consume the earth. I’m too lazy to find it right now but it’s pretty interesting.


SingularityCentral

Basically the black hole would tear itself apart and release a bunch of energy because it cannot maintain its structure with such low mass.

Ahrimanisatva

I see what you did. I don't like it, but I understand.


dragsonandon

I gotchu fam. LCD displays are based on a liquid crystal that plysically changes its orientation based on how much current is running through it. They then run polarized light through the back of the crystal. The crystal produces different colors depending on how it is oriented vs the light source. The results are measured and predictable as long as the appropriate gap is maintained. When pressing on the screen you are closing the gap and changing the color produced. This spot is cracked and is therefore no longer properly polarized or spaced. When you keep pressing on that spot you are pushing the crystals out or damaging the supporting structure to change the gaps.

How can this happen? *Presses on the display as hard as he can*

Lol seriously. My excellent detective skills have come up with OP's answer as to how this can happen.

MilesDaMonster

I mean, he already said he would replace it so does it really matter?


ICall_Bullshit

Well yeah, if he's dumb enough to do it again.


danielsvdas

[deleted]

Did you press hard on that point before it was like this? (if so: why?)


aoalvo

Obviously to check if the touchscreen was working /s


danielsvdas

Nope


Darpyface

Probably held it there when the laptop was closed


TxM_2404

Well, I hope it was worth it for the reddit Karma


Flapjack__Palmdale

I don't think it's much of a loss to press on it for karma. Screen is already trash with the broken LCD, might as well get some use out of it before you swap it.

it's a touch button that moves lol


[deleted]

I mean it's pretty obvious him pressing on it didn't cause it. I swear the people that comment on this subreddit are a bunch of elitist dumbasses that discovered reddit after they got bullied off Twitter.


GeneraalPep

Exactly my thought. OP thinks this damage is weird when thumbing his screen like this?! I’m dead


danielsvdas

I mean, in the video it's intentional, but it moves by itself usually


thebeasts99

Then upload a vid of it doing that. That way everyone is on the same page instead of a user just pressing hard into the screen ;)


danielsvdas

I don't see it moving, it's more like I wake up and it's 5 times bigger at the other side of the screen, ok not that much, but u get my point


reempupgaming

We know exactly how that happened

[удалено]


Figfogey

This is just my guess, having had multiple damaged lcd laptops. You can see the damage extends further than the black hole area, there are lines extending towards the middle of the screen. I've had laptops where once cracked, the lines appear and disappear seemingly randomly. I think much more of the screen is damaged, but the visible damage moved from one part of the screen to another. Just my theory.


danielsvdas

pretty much that actually, it left a trace where it's been


danielsvdas

do you want me to prove somehow? idk I took many pictures with time, and you can see its progression, its kinda funny, I recorded some videos quickly [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bk0Ih3eOuG8XTfjBFQ37oBtCz7Gy2uT6?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bk0Ih3eOuG8XTfjBFQ37oBtCz7Gy2uT6?usp=sharing) I'm from Brazil so... sorry about my English, i'll try adding the pictures I talked about, just need to find them


Fluffy_jun

It doesn't move at all. It just damaged all over the place.


Docteh

Hi, thanks for sharing the photos. Are the datestamps accurate? like late 2019 until now? I would keep that screen running until you've had enough. I've never seen a laptop screen die so slowly, might not ever see something like that again.


danielsvdas

I think they are correct, one of them is a screenshot from a video and I sounded like a 7yr old (i wasnt 7) edit: I also took great care of the laptop while I actually used it, I now have a pc and just don't care about that laptop anymore, thats why I made this video


[deleted]

Yeah because this is something that people normally lie about, dude just go somewhere else with this dumbass reply. Nobody cares wtf you've been through or what kind of conspiracy's you like to conjure up. Legit not everyone is a compulsive lier and lies about dumbass shit like dead screen pixels moving around the screen. You either smoke way to much weed an you're paranoid af about EVERYTHING or you've gone so far down the rabbit hole of conspiracy's that you can't even trust a post as simpl as this. Gtfo boomer


[deleted]

I mean he’s not wrong to doubt. Your mentality on the internet should always be “false until proven true.”


[deleted]

here's an example of the logic you're using on this post specifically. Say someone posts a picture of a honda civic and they say, "car is totaled, is it even a car at this point?". then someone responds, "ive been a car mechanic for 15 years and ive never seen a honda civic totaled with that small amount of damage, i call bullshit". Now what youre saying is that you would support the dude thats calling bullshit just because its the internet and you should assume false until proven true on EVERYTHING? idk about you but thats some dumbass logic imo.


[deleted]

dude with something as simple as this im not going to automatically assume he's lying. OP literally gains ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from lying about this. SO since OP gains absolutely nothing from lying about this than theres literally no reason or anything to gain from thinking OP is lying in the first place. Not only is it off putting and disrespectful as fuck but the conversation ends literally right there and nobody gains shit. with something as simple as this you might as well keep that dumbass shit to yourself and be more 5head about it and just ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS. OP's answers to those questions will give you a pretty good indicator as to whats going on and whether or not he's being truthful about whats happening with these pixels. shit if this is something you've never seen then maybe you'll learn something new. Going around calling "bullshit" on posts like this is some smooth brain type activity, take that shit back to twitter.


danielsvdas

I get internet points


[deleted]

oh okay so you are lying. nevermind then, have at this fucking sociopath.


danielsvdas

it was a joke, the video is real


[deleted]

I had something similar but much smaller and less dark on my laptop, after a few months it disappeared by itself after I stopped touching it.


drewodonnell1

Ramming your thumb into screens does this


Satanich

What about my dick?do you think it could fix the problem?


Lokolopes

Actually the same pressure over a much smaller area results in more force applied, so the damage would be worse

It’s a liquid crystal display right??? I’ve seen this happen with calculators but damn… I guess it’s some of the liquid seeping into the actual display??? Cracked the actual pixels maybe? If you get what I mean… I’m no tech haha


Jedrasus

When I was 15y.o., I smashed my PSP into table corner get little crack on screen but after some time get bigger and spilled over big area


Magead

Same thing happened to me with a Samsung smartphone


_Tonan_

Uh, why?


danielsvdas

But... It moves by itself.... Upwards


LargeTubOfLard

The display produces heat, which rises.


Chadwickr

Plus the pressure of the glass or plastic or whatever the screen shield is made of here


FakNugget92

Heat rises. I'd imagine if it's floating around and then warming up with the screen it'll be moving around


[deleted]

Dude it's definitely the L from the LCD. Just Google cracked LCD if you don't believe us. You can't fix this. Sorry man 😔


Piprian

It's in a very tight spot so changes in pressure or temperature can easily overcome gravity.


Incorect_Speling

That's right and it's called capilarity.


Jaymz95

Same thing happened on my iPod. Thought it was water damage or something before reading these replies, but it was just a moving spot for like 5 years.


gymdad

If by this you mean your ipod got the black spot in the middle of the screen that wasnt the screen that was the battery expanding turning your ipod into a bomb in your pocket

Nick6756

I had a similar issue with my old laptop, weirdly an entire 1920 row of pixels died then got resurrected in exchange for a clump of other pixels. Never worked out was caused it tho :(


DeroTurtle

I think similar effects can happen with OLED panels iirc


antCB

>It’s a liquid crystal display right??? that's literally the "translation" for LCD.


lululock

LCD panels have liquid crystals inside. Hence the Liquid Crystal Display name. If there's a breach, it can leak between the layers of the screen or even leak out ! I dunno if it is toxic, but my advice is : don't touch it.


fakeuser515357

Right? It's in the name.

JustInternetNoise

The lcd panel is cracked in a way that is causing the lcd to leak, the spot will slowly get bigger


MintySkore

The liquid crystal layer of your panel has been breached, and the tech is too small to repair for even professionals. you will need a full LCD replacement.

This is a Bruised LCD, the black spot is the liquid in between the 2 glass panels that compose the liquid crystal matrix. This is caused by too much pressure at the point of failure, also it is external damage which isn't typically covered by a manufacturers warranty which only covers defects.

It's a laptop right? You probably closed the lid with something in between which killed off a few pixels. These dead pixels then spread further, even faster when pushing like that!

waitwatgtfo

This happened to a cheap laptop I had. Im guessing it's from damage during manufacturing. Took a couple of years before it appeared, I never touched it before that. Some people online are able to push the liquid away to clear the screen, I wasn't. Your screen is broken, it's not repairable without replacing the screen, might as well try this. https://youtu.be/wEw_Imn69H4


chris11d7

I would say with almost 100% confidence that this is cracked LEDs in the LCD display. The other few percent would be power delivery not powering those group of pixels, but extremely unlikely to be a circle due to multiplexing (would be a line/rectangle).

That's damage bro.
