    Not being a computer wizz but dumb enough to use Linux Mint because Windoze.

    As far as I've been aware my PC was fine. This is the first time I'm encountering this (it is / was still going).
    A lot of "timed out"s.
    It seems to be going through every file it can find. 🤷

    Do I wait or do I Off & On again?

    EDIT: Typical I ask a question & the whole process comes to an end 🤦.
    Still would be good to know if this means something is or has failed in the PC (through I may find out when I do the Off & On again thing😬)?

    How do we balance innovation with fundamental security, *especially* when human dignity is on the line?

    🚀 Ah, another groundbreaking #innovation in tech: building a "new" product by copying someone else's work and calling it "Building Twice." Apparently, the folks at Ruby Zagreb thought buying 37signals' app was like acquiring a piece of celestial fire, but little did they know, they were just setting their cash on fire instead. 🔥💸
