Not only that but as all such thing go it brings you good karma.
As word gets around, relatives and acquaintances no longer annoyingly ask you to fix their PC/Laptop/whatever.
The ideal compliment to that expression "No good deed goes unpunished".

Sounds like a modern version of a witch trial. What relation do you have to your computer?

Being a professional, I took care of the problem a long time back.
You know those openings on the sides and bottom of your computer? Well, I decided they were for coffee when a computer is not alert enough to work correctly. I gave the rebel coffee . . . and made my other systems watch.
No more uprisings since!

Your method sounds easier. Might try it out.

Yours lends itself better to ritual (robes, cowls, etc.) at the expense of noise.
If you're like me, however, and you leave the power on - well, to paraphrase a movie "I love the smell of Ozone in the morning".

We used to have a Soapbox for political and religious arguments but it got boring so we got rid of it. Don't try and start it up again in The Lounge or...

I had no idea Elon Musk made music.

Not bad. This kind of music actually helps me to focus when writing code.

The song has a nice vibe, I hope Elon won't doubt it and make some more.
Although Elon doubting himself seems as unlikely as his plan to send a million people to Mars before 2050

I don't think he specified...
He really is a mad genius!

Maybe he wants to send telephone sanitisers, account executives, hairdressers, tired TV producers, insurance salesmen, personnel officers, security guards, public relations executives, and management consultants.

On the "serious" side:
As a hobby, I have for the last few years collected Norwegian words that would cause trouble for Norwegian speech synthesis: One spelling can be pronounced in two or three different ways. (I never found one with four pronounciations, but they might exist.)
Sort of like steel guitar vs. lead guitar - they are both metals, right?
Where can I find a collection of English homographs that do not differ only in meaning, but also in pronounciation, causing speech synthesis problems?
