I had something similar happen to me with Debian 12. I believe pressing ALT + F7 after it reached that “power off” message forced the computer to power off. Something caused it to get stuck, but I’m not 100% sure. It may have been some bug with my Samba file share setup, but I have no way of confirming that.
Not sure if this will work for you, but it’s worth a try. Good luck and hope you solve the issue!
It goes much deeper than just coffee shops and other public wifi. There are people in oppressive countries that have to use VPNs to get around their country-wide bans of certain sites, such as anything that provides access to information. Reddit used to be a sanction for tons of information sharing. But now, with Reddit going public, they have to appeal to their shareholders, who probably have business or other deals in those oppressive countries. So, even if Reddit is simply trying to force users to be trackable, it still behooves the shareholders to make information and knowledge more difficult to access to certain people.
Nobody said anything about Resolve being bad. The topic of this conversation and community is Open Source, so a closed source suggestion was not relevant.
Yep, advertiser don’t care how they got those clicks. They just want the numbers to go up so they feel like their “investment” is doing something. Tricking people into thinking it’s user content, showing half naked girls for a dumb mobile gambling game, showing fake products… they don’t care. Advertisers only have one thought: “Hurr Durr Numbers Go Brr”

Your skin is crawling? That’s not what skin is supposed to do. You should sell it. I know a website that will buy it from you.
Don’t use GoDaddy though. I was searching for a domain on that site and after a few minutes it was taken.
There are reasons to avoid GoDaddy, but what you experienced isn’t really a GoDaddy-specific problem. If a domain gets registered on one provider, it will be unavailable on all providers. Unless you are accusing them of falsely saying they were taken but are available for purchase at a premium. I don’t think I’ve heard of them doing that, but who knows what kind of greedy tactics corporations will try these days.
Some people are so desperate for affirmation that this is entirely feasible.
I realized shortly after posting my reply that your post was created 30 days ago. Not 30 minutes lol. Glad you got it fixed!
