I’ve used Alt+PrtSc (the magic sysrq key) with r,e, i, s, u, and b to trigger what I’ve read is a more “graceful” forced restart. I’m still learning what the hell I’m doing, though, so don’t take my word for any of this.

(edit: goofed the key order)

going to the cinema?

I just sit in there and soak it in at that point. I might not get all the dialogue, but I’ll get enough of it and more importantly get the emotional parts of a good movie. I’ve even watched some films in languages I don’t understand without subtitles - it’s a fun exercise every now and then.

Do you use the foldable type totes? I feel like the regular kind would drive me nuts, but that’s why I keep a bag full of bags in each of my family’s cars.
