Joshua HollandHas anyone tried turning the House of Representatives off and then back on?
David Colarusso@JoshuaHolland actually, I think it's stuck power cycling. Maybe they should try booting in Safe Mode.
kt@Colarusso @JoshuaHolland what if this #housespeaker battle is a fake. A plan to take down the United States from within.
The #insurrection is ongoing and the insurrectionists don’t want a Congress to fund our military, our healthcare, our Government. They don’t want a REPRESENTATIVE Government, they want to RULE us.
watch three more failed votes for #Speakertoday and then a successful vote to adjourn. They will do this as long as we let them. #Jan6

Marina Epelman@JoshuaHolland That was the problem — they turned it off, and now it wouldn’t boot up. Unlike the Senate, which runs continuously.
Torbjörn Björkman@JoshuaHolland My understanding is that's what they're trying to do, but they've forgotten where all the buttons are. And the available tech support is laughing their arses off and voting against them.
Michael S@JoshuaHolland they keep having a persistent ID-10-T error.
Viss@JoshuaHolland @mmasnick heh, i've been saying for a decade, some form of "our shit is a windows95 box that's been running since 1995, and has never been rebooted. we are in desperate need of more than a reboot, but a massive overhaul and reinstallation of a fresh, new system. the one we have now CLEARLY doesnt work"

Reiner Jung 🇬🇱 🇺🇦 🇪🇺@sabrinaweb71 @Viss @JoshuaHolland @mmasnick depends on the OS. Some wanted to use a fascist dictatorship. Better use a real democracy OS with support for multiple parties.
A Closed Account@JoshuaHolland control- alt- indictments
CandyK@JoshuaHolland The media is the problem, MSNBC morning shows and CNN just not watchable.
hybrid havoc@JoshuaHolland Might just be time for an upgrade
Joe ❌👑@JoshuaHolland We did that on January 3, and it failed to reboot. It keeps trying to come up again and again, and keeps crashing.
Jorge StolfiUnfortunately it looks like a hardware problem.
@JoshuaHolland 8 times so far, still no boot.

@JoshuaHolland, unfortunately while you can press the control and delete buttons, there's no alt because they're all alt already.
sandywb14@JoshuaHolland Thanks for the belly laugh.
Lizard@JoshuaHolland in 1861 and 2021. Not considered Best Practices; indeed, can be classed as a major CLM.

The Richie Rich@JoshuaHolland sorry, the firmware hasn’t been updated in 100 years and the
manufacturers went out of business.

Quanah Schlesselman@JoshuaHolland lol great idea.
Ed Sanders@JoshuaHolland
These are very persistent bugs.
also, any six republicans could end this whenever they wanted to.
BakersRelay@ai6yr Also for your files.
Stephen Cerruti@JoshuaHolland yes, 2 years ago. It didn't go so well.
Myria@JoshuaHolland 7 times so far. Something’s wrong with the boot partition.
Kim@JoshuaHolland How about we unplug the Republican Caucus & never plug it back in again. It always fries all the breakers in the House.
MartinC@JoshuaHolland Yes. Last November. That’s what got us this mess!
Kenneth John Bardsley@JoshuaHolland
Without McCarthy preferably.

Jake Rayson@JoshuaHolland you're not allowed to give it a good kick, are you?
@JoshuaHolland it is beyond that. Maybe a hammer.
@JoshuaHolland It's not the House, it's the Republicans. Please don't confuse the issue.
Iris Richardson Fine Art 🇩🇪🇺🇸📷@JoshuaHolland Too corrupted it needs to be scarped
I TRIED TO TELL YOU@JoshuaHolland Just leave it off.

Soozcat@JoshuaHolland At this point we need to reboot this whole timeline. Switching the Large Hadron Collider off & on a coupla times should do the trick

GkIMFL@JoshuaHolland they rebooted not just one, but all 435 of the fleet. Unfortunately the built in consensus protocol makes no guarantees of bounded time.
Tom Forsyth@JoshuaHolland Er... yes, almost exactly two years ago :-(
Kristoffer Lawson@JoshuaHolland I think they’ve tried that a couple of times but it just boots up with almost the same results. Perhaps formatting the whole slate would help?
Scott Willsey@JoshuaHolland @tchambers I think it’s time to swap the whole thing out with a new one.
Jason@JoshuaHolland Reboot 3 times as per SOP documentation.

Before rebooting they should get rid of some bogus patches that were installed. I think about 20 or so need to be removed...

@JoshuaHolland you're talking reboot but it should just be the boot
Ineedanother@JoshuaHolland it’s like a perpetual blue screen of death after every reboot.
Steve Downey@JoshuaHolland Yes. We do it every two years, but we occasionally have a boot loop.
Toni M.why not changing the rules: the next vote counts with a simple majority, i.e. who got most of the votes. 🤔
comparable to penalties in soccer 😀
to avoid jeffries, the gop has to align and agree and the entire nation wins (otherwise they are done) 🤗

@JoshuaHolland It’s always the drivers. They’re still trying to use the first gen OEM drivers and they need to install the updated ones.

Wait..it’s probably the DNS. It’s always the DNS.
