Sleeping beauty

Weird thing with the laptop tonight. I got home and it wouldn't stop hibernating. Not until I shut the power off cold, turned it on again and put up with all the restarting rigamarole. Which is probably not the best thing to do, but then neither is muling opium from Turkey, which I bring up for no particular reason.

No, I've looked this problem up and they suggest updating some drivers. This is worth a try, I just couldn't do it in the moment.

The thing I dislike about computers and other tech items is that when something goes wrong you can't just look at this and that to find the cause. Instead, you have to try what you did and hope it fixes itself.

Muling anything from anywhere has long been a bad idea :)

More advanced technology has meant more baffling technology. You can't really take something apart and figure it out when there are, in effect, no moving parts. Question is, was this planned?

Yeah, as far as muling goes, just say "No, but thanks for thinking of me." :)
