As I write this, I have my desktop with a BIOS error that has sent computer into the future, as the system time is 31/25/25455.

I don’t think the future is that fun. The year has 25 months.

I’m looking at BIOS update. Nothing serious. Already changed the CMOS. Only need to fetch the BIOS from the manufacturer website and flash it.

But I didn’t - and I still don’t - feel like it and instead turned off the machine and walked way and went to join my family, pet the dogs and take care of dinner.

It felt… good.

And if I’m writing this now, here, is because I wanted to brag a bit.

I keep reading and listening to doomerism about people not being able to turn off from the screens. But it is this simple.

You just walk away.

    If the chain of events that have been affecting my computer is telling, I’d say the tides are high and unpredictable.
