NPCs (NonPolitical Comics)

A community for comic lovers who just want to get away from politics and gloom and doom.
- Rule 1 - Be civil.
- Rule 2 - Don't be uncivil.
Posting guidelines:
- No political comics. This generally includes anything referencing whatever bullshit Trump is up to, but also includes the megacorps. Essentially if the comic is about how the world today sucks, it doesn't belong here.
- Where possible, tag the title with [comic name]. This refers to the name of the artist or overall comic, not the title of the specific strip.
- Tag NSFW / NSFL / AI content accordingly.

You also need to have patience.
If ITers were to give up after 2 attempts, like a regular user, the world would have exploded during the Y2K bug.
Does that work like that? After 2 attempts you just end up curious about what is going on, unable to think of anything else, no?
Although sometimes that remain when things fix themselves. "I didn't even really change anything. Just minor things back and forth, and suddenly after 20 reboots it just... started working under the exact same conditions."
If I can't fix it almost immediately and it isn't 100% preventing me from doing my shit, that error is now just part of life.
Maybe. But only if I don't know how to approach it. For example, I just found copying partitions using Gparted and opening detailed informations has a high chance of crashing entire KDE Plasma desktop.
But it restarts and doesn't kill Gparted, so...
I have no idea what's going on though, and no idea what to look for.
