I do it because it inconveniences me and makes me sad, not because I am scared

When I used to train new help desk techs back "When Rock Was Young" (as the kids say these days) I used to tell them that restarting wasn't always the right thing to try but it was very rarely the wrong thing.

It’s been so long that I jump a little each time my CRT displays degauss themselves on powerup because it really sounds like something is breaking

there's a trick to getting windows 10 to not auto reboot. i did it last week but i kinda forgot what i did. i had to delete some file or folder and then name an empty txt document the same name so windows didn't overwrite it anyway my computers still update auotmatically they just can no longer reboot without me actually doing so, like god intended  also i am surprised at the lack of nerd-rage how Skype just all of a sudden showed up on every single PC in the world without ever being asked to install it. pissed me off but i dont see anyone whining about it for some reason

their monopoly status is not that clear-cut anymore, it'd be a bit of a weird move without also making google unbundle hangouts and apple imessage not that i wouldn't be in favor of that, would turn very entertaining at minimum.

Strap the old 12v 50 amp ham radio power supply on for a little extra current off the grid for cloudy days. Throw some money at $2/foot 4/0 welding cable, some 50 amp fuse blocks and a couple distribution panels. boom, diy UPS. its what i did!

i bought this UPS because it came highly recommended to me: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06VY6FXMM i love it i have a high end desktop PC tower with a dozen hard drives in it, also my security camera unit, my sprinkler system (i was sick of the sprinklers going off at 6 PM whenever we had a slight power outage), my modem and my router, and it still says i have 25 minutes of battery time also it tells you how much electricity everything plugged into it uses (it actually has a spot for you to put in the kwh rate for your location) and it turns out it only costs me like $13 a month to have this behemoth PC turned on 24/7 auto-downloading linux ISOs right after it airs. i figured it was like $35 a month or something anyway get that UPS, it's great
