Just found out my USB wifi nub stops working if too hot.And, of course, it's unbearably hot and muggy here, so the gosh darned thing stopped working. Again.It's currently cooling down in the fridge.In other news, I need a new Linux-supported wifi USB nub. Surprise!

@docskrzyk I'd rather set up a rpi to play around with RiscOS, but I get your point.Besides, a Raspberry Pi is about 30$ here, while a new USB wifi is less than 19$. Let's save some money.

@docskrzyk "Having a Pi on standby for emergency stupidity" sounds like a great life goal to me. 🤓

So, heat = wifi nub out of order.But, of course, as soon as the replacement arrives, the original USB nub starts working perfectly.Of course. 😩
