Bobby B has to be the most underrated king in the ASOIAF universe. Disastrous personal life, but he understood Westeros better than anyone else. Pragmatic, realistic, and stable. Women and alcohol just got the best of him.

It's the computer equivalent of, "That's it, I'm calling your parents."

it does feel brutal, but it also feels cathartic. when it's spazzing out and just ignoring everything for 5 seconds...30 seconds...1 minute...2 minutes i start feeling like some angry king :"I WILL NOT BE IGNORED BY THE LIKES IF YOU, MACHINE" and i admit i get some vindictive satisfaction from just murdering it then and there.

Lord I miss the days when a power switch literally broke the electrical circuit within a device. Power switches now are mostly like a suggestion.

Not on desktops! Sweet, lovable, unportable (mostly), bulky desktops.

Only the one on the power supply though...

Back in the day that also was the only power switch. And when the one stuff works I quite like the convenience.

I always imagined it more like smothering with a pillow.

Today I learned something new. Aaand it's disabled by default on Fedora based distros. Weird.
