You know why I go to my computer guy? It’s because my computer guy doesn’t overcharge me for stuff. In this case, the guy goes, Yeah. That’s just your USB 3 port that got messed up*. I could replace the whole motherboard, or I could tell you to buy a ten buck hub on Amazon and use that. While I’m here, lemme just install that SSD for you… yup. Good to go.
So, we’re good. I need a new computer at some point, but not today, thank God. And I can get back to edits! Huzzah.

*I still think that not turning on the computer after I messed it up was the right call generally, but in this specific case it would have been fine.
The gods of the aether and sparks have been kind to you.
