Marginally related but today was having a meeting with someone who is notorious for not being plugged in. I wish I had a recording of it because she literally went “oh sh-” mid sentence and then was booted as her computer shut down. Impeccable timing.

Heh, that’s happened a lot since our org updated to Win11. Updates in the middle of the day (despite IT assuring us those only install after hours 🙄) and people just randomly drop from meetings as their PCs reboot.
Today (well, yesterday now), mine was just “Preparing to hibernate due to low battery” and I was like “wait, what?!” and was frantically making sure everything got saved (this old workhorse doesn’t always want to resume from hibernate). Turns out I had the cord plugged into the laptop but didn’t plug it into the outlet Facepalm
