LászlóComputer issues?
Have you tried the Black Mesa troubleshooting process?
*whacks it*
Flits@StripeyYena clang clang clang clang
@FlitsFlash When unsure how to proceed, whack everything.
@StripeyYena I can hear it in my head!
*月亜 (Shia)@StripeyYena it works all the time!
F4GRX Sébastien@StripeyYena not the NIM, noooo
@f4grx Not to worry, I'll only whack the PC!
Sebin Nyshkim@StripeyYena percussive maintenance extreme
ticho@StripeyYena I think there could be Unforeseen Consequences with this process. Before you Power Up, approach with Apprehension, otherwise Anomalous Materials might appear.
IshambardI hope you are wearing your HEV before doing that...
@ishambard A commish of my char wearing that is still on my to-do list... x)
hazel, that's me.@h *jumps around an whacks the service desk*
The Glass Bing@StripeyYena Standard insertion for a non standard procedure
IcilPoor László!
V Carnage, 六七@StripeyYena that's totally whack
crypticcelery@StripeyYena next to a radioactive source, no less, for full black mesa vibes…
Marc Haber@StripeyYena I especially like the wood keyboard "drawer" fit into the rack.
@Zugschlus Yeah that's how our technician has always shoehorned computers into racks... This is one of the "nicer" varieties since that piece of scrap particleboard is at least coated, rather than just bare wood. x)
@StripeyYena Fire Inspectors will love that. Accident Prevention People will love the raw edges of the board.
@Zugschlus Well, all our lab furniture is wooden, so this piece of board will probably not be what kills us! And the way it's positioned, nobody ever bumped into it so far at least.
johnny anhedonic@StripeyYena “i have a crowbar and many problems.”
a short poem attributed, probably apocryphally, to a dr. gordon freeman, phd.
Twenty Twenty Sixhorns@StripeyYena photos you can *hear*
Sparky 🇩🇪 🇨🇭@Sparky Hey now, we're not playing Opposing Force here!
Syralicious@StripeyYena percussive maintenance! 👍
Chloé Raccoon@StripeyYena @TundraWolf ...That was a joke; ha-ha, fat chance...
Fluffviech ™️
@StripeyYena this is how i imagine you at work every day.... xD
@Kamikazepinguin Totally how it is! *clang*
@StripeyYena well, i would love to bang dumb people with a crowbar all day....x)
kasia 
Sven (Der Cybär)@StripeyYena so 🤏 close to the next Face Hugger.
@Sven That's a different franchise! o: But I'm sure a crowbar would work on those as well!
GayDeceiver@StripeyYena Percursory maintenance? I'm familiar with it.
Windfisch@StripeyYena @leyrer Black Mesa *anything* processes have not exactly worked well. Also the escalated black mesa troubleshooting process had some... unforeseen consequences?
@Windfisch @leyrer At least they fared better in terms of proposal acceptance rate than Aperture!
Nafeon the Bear@StripeyYena I have the half-life whack and clonk noise in my head immediately.

@StripeyYena I can hear this image...
half life HEV suit charging station type beat
PlasmaGryphon@StripeyYena I unfortunately went into optics so I need a more precise instrument. By which I mean a 5 lb dead blow hammer. Great for fixing frames hit by a fork lift and getting optics back into alignment.
When I was younger I probably could have done a decent Freeman cosplay...
gplr_@StripeyYena ChatGPT when told to interpret this picture does a good job. First it hints at a „humorous part“ when asked further it gives this: „[…] Reference to Pop Culture: The crowbar is also famously associated with Gordon Freeman, the protagonist from the Half-Life video game series — a physicist who solves a lot of problems with a crowbar in a hazardous lab setting. This adds a meta-joke for gamers: here’s another lab, and here’s the crowbar again.“
Damn!
