I replaced a failed hard drive in one laptop with a hard drive pulled from another laptop whose frame and screen was damaged years ago but whose drive remained ok, and I have to say replacing an SSD on a recent laptop is far easier than any drive replacement I've done on older models. It's too bad that the potential to make components easier to replace on small computers has taken a back seat to manufacturers locking things down for business purposes.

Home networking mystery: at my parents' home, when I connect two computers to wifi, I can ssh between them for about an hour right after I connect them to the wifi. Then they partially disappear and I can't connect via wifi even if I know the local IPs. But I can still connect to them from ethernet connected computers on the same network.Is this some kind of router setting? I've never seen it on my own home network, where I can always ssh on the local network using the same machines.

Is there a generic name for a terminal-based user interface that's not a "command line interface", by which I mean an interface that's meant to be interactive within a terminal, not something that you interact with via a series of statements in the form of commands?Arguably, I'm talking about a terminal GUI but it doesn't seem like people use the term GUI to refer to anything that's purely in a terminal, even if it has ASCII-style art and multiple colors.

It's been eight years since I first saw this picture of a lamb in front of a computer and I still think about it. The specific thought being: why is the title "Waterfront Credit Union?"https://digitalnz.org/records/31877365/waterfront-credit-union-man?from-story=5395231612575748ca00001e
