   Had another BSOD yesterday, after not having seen one in years I’ve had 3 in the last couple of months. Beginning to suspect my boot SSD might be failing, it’s 3 years old and the stop code indicated a corrupt page file index.🫤
   On the plus side I discovered the built-in Windows Reliability Monitor which shows you a history of all your errors. Nice tool! It felt like the last one was only a couple weeks ago, but it was actually almost a month.

     @dev_ric I suspend my PC every night so at least it can’t do that. Hope the move has gone / is going well

     @sinbad ah be careful with that. I had a laptop with a failing SSD and after a while, it started giving disk errors on boot. Worked absolutely fine once booted, but the errors kick in before acpi does, so leaves your fans on full and the screen turned on etc until you press a key to continue the boot.

     I got up SO many mornings to find Windows had spontaneously rebooted for updates, despite sleep mode, and just left the laptop burning up all night 😩

     @sinbad we're in. 😁

     Just the fish and rats to move over the weekend now. And some outside stuff that we wanted to deal with ourselves. Hiring movers has actually been really nice, despite also being really unsettling haha. Helps that the guys we got just turned out to be great people.
