As an atheist, I ask for prayers that the backup's good.

E: Your solidarity has worked. The backup is good and not too old. Note for myself and you - install your OS on a snapshotting filesystem so that live backups are possible.

Have you tried soldering it back on?

Looks like some pads ripped off with it, not impossible but definitely would be a bitch to fix. Though, in this economy, it may be worth it

I wish I had the skill to solder BGA. 😅

If push comes to shove, it can be done in a pizza oven.
