@ndegruchy You didn't hook it up w/ a keyboard shortcut?

@ndegruchy lmao, that's pretty simple :P

@ndegruchy You forgot to mention me I think :P

Honestly AppleScript reminds me a LOT of AutoHotKey

@ndegruchy haha I was wondering if anyone would be able to recognize it :P

Weird thing is that if the application you want to insert keystrokes into isn't allowed accessibility features, it'll tell you that the runner doesn't have permission. Not sure how that happened

I might be using this scripting language a lot over the next six months now :P That and automator

on run {input, parameters}

set thedate to (do shell script "date +'%m/%d/%Y %H:%M'") as string
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "Brandon Nolet (" & thedate & "): "
end tell

end run

@seb_ly push it like a mouse mashes the pleasure center activation button

@alireza 🤔 there might be a bios update available for your device

@alireza you're going to have to byte the bullet and try some hardware fixes (start by reseating the RAM)

I really couldn't tell you what the problem is other than my suspicion of it being a hardware issue

@jordan31 both social media and the social score thing in China are similar in that it's a heading that people use to value themselves. They're different but not entirely

@alireza ...I think some piece in your laptop may be defective, did you try to reseat the RAM?

@gemlog they're both social scores and I see the same people complaining about the advent of social scores but then turning around and saying "like my pic on insta" etc

It's funny to see the exact same people complaining about the advent of the social score on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat trying to get more likes, followers, and streaks every day.

Like... It's the same shit! Can't you fucking see?

@alireza were you able to try it out?

@alireza honestly, for knowing how, it's best to try and find a video for your model laptop (as close as you can)

The gist of it is to remove some cover on the bottom, make sure you've removed the battery and charger, then take the ram module out, plug charger in, boot the machine and see what happens, take charger out, then put that one back, take the other out, (charger in) boot and see what happens, (charger out) then put it back in now having both again, (charger in) and boot it

@alireza I'm at a loss. Have you tried re-seating the ram or booting with one of the two sticks removed? Each individual step is only adding less than seconds except for lvm2-monitor service (which is normal for a slow HDD)

@alireza glad there's SOME movement. I hope this gets fixed, it's quite a strange issue

@alireza Any luck with the guides i sent you?

@alireza take a look here: https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/#shutdowncompleteseventually

or here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/Journal#Journal_size_limit (in relation to limiting the journal size, could help with boot time)

@alireza Do you know how to manually update your kernel? This sounds more like a driver/kernel module issue than anything, especially since it persists across different installs and different distros

@alireza Seems more like something that a more experienced Linux folk could help with. I've not seen an issue like this before.

Did you try reinstalling the system?
