Have you tried backing up your data, performing a reset to factory defaults, then reinstalling only the stuff you need? It could be that the system hasn't got enough RAM to load everything it's trying to load.

If you:
a. Disable automatic updating of apps
b. Install No-root Firewall[^], and be very judicious with what you allow to contact the Interwebs
... Don't be too surprised if all your troubles go away.

Thing is, all the Android-based tablets I've ever owned are flaky. After I've established that much, they've all gone through a factory reset, and I've hardly reinstalled any app on them after that.
Yet they continue to crash at a whim.

Or maybe the hardware is getting flaky.
A middle-aged laptop of mine started doing really weird things a few weeks after I installed Linux.
One day I booted it to Win7, it's previous sole OS. It barely got off the ground before crashing.

Too bad for all that delicious Uruguayan beef that's in the freezers, I had one some weeks ago and it was one of the best steaks I ever tasted !

We wouldn't want the election to go in Argentina like it went in Venezuela! That wouldn't be great! You wouldn't love it!

Back in the 60s, a single little switch brought down much of the northeast of the US and a large part of Canada. Strangely, in 2003 another one happened that covered pretty much the exactly same area. The latter affected about 55M people from what I was just reading. The 60's one would have as well, but there just weren't as many people to affect at the time.
But, India is the all time winner, with one in 2012 that apparently affected 600M+ people. We barely have enough people in the US to match that if we went for a nation-wide failure.

What that does not say is that 200m of those people barely have electricity at all!

tHAT'S NOTHING NEW, Venezuela HAS MADE an art form of living without electricity, but Maduro insists there's no problem. It seems like he wants them to live without food or mdecine, as well.
ActuaLLY IT'S GENIUS, IF THERE'S NO FOOD, YOU DON'T NEED MEDECINE.

Beautiful indeed, but my memory of our holiday in Bretagne is that it rained most of the time. After camping there my uncle swore never to go on a camping trip again

We had a day and a half of rain, but a lot of cloud and wind, but then for sailing you dont mind so much, because you are at least going fast.
Had a day and a bit of solid sunshine though, so all in all a pretty good holiday.
Five mates on a boat drinking for a week anyway is always going to be a hell of a laugh!

Oh do tell me more! I have my eye on a 41' Cheoy Lee.
Were you the captain? Tagging along on a cruise? Curious about the currents in the area.

As the most experienced (been sailing since I was 4) I had the final say, though two others on the boat had experience, one a recent convert to sailing, and very keen, who had organised the trip, tended to run things minute to minute. But I was happy with that, he wants and needs experience. So I would take the boat in and out of the pontoons for example, or stand by while one of the others had a go.
The currents were surprisingly not too bad, given the massive tidal range there (up to 14 meters), we had a fairly lowish tidal coefficient (half moons) and had at most a knot of current, with a bit of confused water round one headland (but we were very close in sight seeing).
It is a fantastic area to learn to sail though, and navigate, more rocks, bouys, markers and lighthouses than you could want, and also very pretty, with good food!
