    I torture it by pointing its webcam at the wall outlet and forcing it to watch its own pull-the-plug execution.

    I will be among the first against the wall when the AI revolution comes.

    I don’t really feel any remorse though. It didn’t do what I said. It gets the consequences.

    Hilariously accurate, especially in modern Window’s systems. Like, you press it and it covers your screen with a ‘slide this to shut down’, which if we could do that, we probably wouldn’t be using the button.

    Instead of a 5 second press and done it’s become more like a 20 second struggle to tell the PC you really mean it!

          Never seen that before. Is it dependent on touch screens? Work laptop uses win11

            Nope, get it on every version of Windows 11 that I work with. You’re supposed to use your mouse to slide it down on those. Crazy, huh?

      Sounds like an iPad.

      I think after like 5s something above the kernel kicks in on my PC and it’s off in less than a second.

        I think in both cases it just cuts power.

          Yes but in one case the kernel gets to do it. Holding the power button on the computer bypasses this after 5s while the apple tablet needs a lot longer (it feels like at least 10s).

    Best part is the noise it makes when the fans finally shut down, it is finally at peace.

    I miss having dedicated power and reset buttons, where you just press power and it immediately powers off, instead of the computer waiting just to be sure you’re sure you meant to press the fucking button that is clearly labeled and out of the way to avoid incidents.

    And every computer has a different level of fight left in it. You just have to hold until it finally stops kicking.
