I myself had this problem with my monitor when I first bought it. It has weird touch buttons instead of normal buttons, I plugged it into the computer and kept hitting the power button and it wouldn't come on. I was getting annoyed that it was broken... Then I realized I only plugged it into the computer and forgot the freakin' power cable when I was about to pack it back up and take it back to the store. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I can top this.

I was running hackintosh along side others OSes. Keep in mind it was working fine until it wasn't. So this hackintosh one day started having a problem. After some time of inactivity, the monitor would sleep. Once it did, it wouldn't come back up. Only a reboot would help. Eventually I thought it was incompatible with the DVI output since I saw similar hackintosh issues online. I bought a new monitor that would support display port. When I was disconnecting everything I notice that the DVI port wasn't fully plugged in. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

At least it was in time to return, right?

Right???

My Monitor used to turn off randomly for no reason. Until I noticed it turned off every time my mini fridge kicked in, move mini fridge plug to a different wall port and issue resolved.

Make sure you aren't overloading your wall sockets people!

I learned 3 things very quickly in one evening:

  1. My cheap electric razor throws a ton of noise onto whatever electrical circuit it's plugged into
  2. How to sort out ZFS filesystem errors
  3. That the bathroom socket I plug my razor into and the plug across the house that the main desktop is plugged into happen to be on the same electrical circuit

So that's fun!

This reminds me. At work, I've had to help during rapid consultation procedures for surgeons while they are performing a surgery. It involves you cutting tissue microscopically thin with a very sharp blade within this specialized machine.

Well one day I am cutting and cutting and I just can't get anything to work. It's making a mess and fucking everything up.

I look down and realize I didn't even have the blade in the machine lmaooo. I was trying to cut with blunt metal. What a goober move.

Brain farts happen!
