Q: can you solve my pc problem

I have placed the earth wire of my CPU into live wire of plug and there was spark in my CPU can anyone tell what happened as my PC is not working now

repair

Very low quality with a chance of trolling

This is very much a reversible effect. Instead of the earth wire, get the space wire. That should absorb the spark and restore CPU activity. — Bart 2 mins ago

Q: Why does an Edit action kick a post out of the Close Votes queue?

According to Emmett's answer, an Edit action on a post immediately dequeues it from the close votes queue. But why? That doesn't seem very productive. Just because someone edits a question doesn't necessarily mean it's no longer close-worthy. It seems more prone to abuse, as a user can just make ...

feature-request status-declined edits review vote-to-close

user259867

@rene Thanks for digging this up; I never read that post. The Reopening process only takes body edits into account: tag and title edits are not considered substantive enough to put the post into Reopen Queue. By the same token, they should not remove a post from the Close queue. Feature request coming soon to a meta near you...
