    My Monitor used to turn off randomly for no reason. Until I noticed it turned off every time my mini fridge kicked in, move mini fridge plug to a different wall port and issue resolved.

    Make sure you aren’t overloading your wall sockets people!

      I learned 3 things very quickly in one evening:

      1. My cheap electric razor throws a ton of noise onto whatever electrical circuit it’s plugged into
      2. How to sort out ZFS filesystem errors
      3. That the bathroom socket I plug my razor into and the plug across the house that the main desktop is plugged into happen to be on the same electrical circuit

      So that’s fun!
