During the stream I noticed that my battery is discharging despite laptop's AC being plugged in.After restart laptop stopped to boot. A few more attempts and 30 minutes later it somehow booted showed the message from picture, and upower showed the charge rate is 0 watt.Went to the laptop service, they plugged their charger and it booted flawlessly and started to charge. I went to the cafe, plugged my charger and now it charges well again.What the Schrödinger charger shenanigans?#thinkpad

@abcdw Maybe some self-healing fuse tripped in the charger, because system drains too much power from it during the stream? :dragnthink: Then, while you went to the service, this fuse was cooled and "healed" — and the charger became usable again

@abcdw@fosstodon.org @evgandr@mas.toDamaged cable? Sometimes you bend it at right angle and it starts working again 😅

@m0xEE @evgandr can be an option actually. I'll get another cable to test it out. Thank you for the idea!

@m0xEE @evgandr @cambria @RecurringBloatwareOk, it seems the problem is on the charger side. The tablet also don't get enough power from it.Maybe it's a damaged cable (will check it tomorrow) or in worst case scenario a problem with a power brick itself. Anyway, not a huge deal.Thank you everyone for the help!
