Working Daze by John Zakour and Scott Roberts for August 24, 2023

Well I’m gonna try anyway.

As we used to say in the Air Force: if it don’t work, get a bigger hammer.

Before the place I worked at built a full kitchen/lunchroom we had vending machines. The drink machine had a elevator type device so soda pop would not get shook up and it used a scanner to make sure product made it to the outlet door.

It pretty much does.

“But what about my Zagnut!?

…Yet here are John & Scott rebooting a 2008 strip. ;-)

Percussive maintenance is so much more satisfying.

I haven’t seen a real Zagnut since, we’ll 2008.

The AI vending machine is suggesting you shouldn’t eat 99% of its contents. It will take your cash and cards though. (And deny it)

However, it is fun to try.

Noo! my plan for getting through life is ruined.

Actually, he had to move it from the wall and then back again. It is possible that “rebooting” will actually get him his candy bar.

So down below is the latest tweet from X. If it is no longer Twitter, how can it tweet? What kind of noise does an X make. It might be important, Does anyone really care?

What is with the two round conductors European style outlet?

On the coldest morning of the year, my furnace started blowing cold air. I cut off its power, waited a minute, and turned the power back on. Reboot = warm air.

I occasionally need to reboot my router so that I can log into my wifi on my laptop

This one requires rocking—-carefully.

Maybe not, but it is a good start with most modern electronics…..

If my 45 years of work in the programming and computer industry taught me anything, it was that rebooting works 99% of the time.

The other 1% you were SOL.
