"Turn it off and on again."

Great for Wi-Fi routers and office appliances.

Life support, not so much.

stage 2: if that doesn't work disconnect it phisically from power line. ;-) and plug it back.

Work for servers as well...

"who turned grandpa off? I tried to turn him back on and just getting BSOD"

guess you can't power cycle the circle of life!

@rivyx Procreation is exactly that. Humans eventually get a corrupted internal state, and save themselves by rebooting. New instance, freshly allocated memory, use existing neural net to train a new one.

...unless you're Jesus.

...why does this have "lesson learned"-tag? 🤔

My attorney has advised my not to comment further.

Sometimes, it really helps :D

Haha, this cracked me up because it’s so true! The “turn it off and on again” trick has saved me countless times, routers, TVs, even my car’s infotainment system once. But yeah, definitely not something you want to hear in a hospital setting. I recently read a review on https://cps.pissedconsumer.com/revi... about someone resetting their entire security system accidentally, made me feel better about my own mishaps.
