Sorry for the offtopicness, but I need you to see this and don't have another way to contact you.

You have posted a great many comments that broke the HN guidelines egregiously. (I'm not talking about this thread.) Comments like this are bannable offenses on HN:

I'm not going to ban you right now, partly because those threads are all at least a week old and partly because your account has years of history on HN. However, we need you to review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules from now on. If you keep breaking them like this, we're going to have to ban you. In particular, it's absolutely not acceptable to attack other users the way you've been doing, no matter how strongly you disagree with them. That goes against everything this site is supposed to be for.

Sorry, dang. I've read over the rules. Thanks for giving me another chance.

Appreciated!

A 5 y/o girl, watching me troubleshooting an error on a TV at family gathering, suggested I restart the TV. I told her mother the child had demonstrated sufficient knowledge to work in modern IT support.

That message you get on YouTube when their loading fails so they suggest “restarting your device” always annoys me.

I found that I need to regularly restart Chrome due to how it will start behaving worse and worse in handling input events...
