They say that if you bury your electronics in rice and leave them overnight, the rice will attract Orientals who will come and fix your device for you.

Take apart to the extent possible and bury in rice.

This happened a few months ago. We did rice but probably not long enough and then tried to turn it on, which probably fried it.
