I remember hearing a story of a UN or EU real-time translator working German to English suddenly stopping, the English listeners looking a bit confused, and after another 15 or 20 seconds of hearing the German speaker continue with still no translation, just heard a whispered “the verb, dammit, the verb!” through their headsets.

‘Get her!’–that was your whole plan?

You should read his wiki page–quite the rollercoaster from tax evasion, Wimbledon commentator, professional poker player, to prison.

Sometimes you can Ctrl+drag (which is copy) text to those annoying ‘repeat your email’ fields that won’t let you paste.

Sardines, olives, capers.

I honestly can’t remember the details, but I followed an Arch guide somewhere (probably the wiki). It definitely prompts me for passphrase on boot.

Lots of percussive maintenance going on around here, but one that sticks in my mind was testing some of the first 486DX PCs in 1990. One particular specimen from Compaq would only boot after hard power off by taking the lid off and tapping the CPU with a screwdriver. Worked fine after that.

When I was 18 and in my first job, my boss and I installed the very first windows NT file servers for a major uk public sector organisation. They were all named after beers that we’d drunk on team nights out. We had Blacksheep, Tanglefoot, Snecklifter, and so on. They were in a test environment so it didn’t matter. Until they went into production…

That was over 30 years ago now, but I still usually resort to beers.

Btrfs with pre and post pacman-triggered snapshots. Only had to use it once, but it was very smooth.

Give Arctic a try. Just a little bit smoother and some great customisation options.

Arctic on iOS Closest to Apollo that I’ve found.

Have you tried Arctic?

This is the way.

Yes, that’s the point. The limit c denies the possibility of a perfectly rigid body existing physically. It can only exist as a thought experiment.

cannsbilism

I’m guessing cannibalism. But where are you shopping?

Yeah, I have a script that toggles my Dell XPS between full charge and 80%, as I’m usually on mains and only need full charge occasionally.

A kind of ‘super’ print screen, in fact.

Yeah, I was being trite but still there is a reason. Idle doesn’t mean doing nothing. Perhaps it’s obscure, perhaps as impenetrable as some combination of machine state and number of milliseconds since 1970 being an even number. But you could try to track it down.

And sometimes the easiest thing is to reinstall from scratch.

Nothing crashes for no reason. Until you identify the reason, you’re employing stochastic problem solving.
