disconnectikacio

Hi All! I have an old Delll E6440, which started acting weird 1 month ago. After any kind of swiching it off (includes shutdown, hibernation, sleep), randomly i can't wake it up (this can happen even on restart), when i press the power button these can happen:

• the power LED on, and that's all. Nothing happens, the HDD, or battery charging LED does nothing, the screen is off, i can't turn it off, even if i press the power button for 10 seconds, i can only turn off by removing the battery
• power led on, some blinking of hdd led, but then same as above
• power led on, hdd led blinking, dell logo comes up on screen, hangs there, others are same as above
• starts correctly, and i can use, but its very slow, like if the CPU is running at low frequency, also on linux mint (main os) this time the battery indicator is missing, like if it would be a desktop pc, the system not even detects the battery, or charging, even if it runs from battery only. After a half hour, the cooler revs up, the system gets faster, like normally, and the battery/charging indicator appears
• starts correctly, everything is normal, and stable

So a usually turn on, is like this: fail, take out battery and back, fail, battery out-in, fail, battery..., starts correctly. But for example today i had to to the battery cycle 8 times until it started.

I've checked the cmos battery, its fine with voltage a little bit above the nominal, and never was UEFI settings loss. I've tried without the HDD(SSD) too, nothing changed.

I've tried to start without battery, on charger, but no any reaction on power button, not even the LED. The charger supplies the normal voltage, also tried with other charger for same type, but nothing changed. If the laptop starts correctly, also charges the battery as normal.

Do anyone have some hints, why is this happening? I've done longer RAM tests too, no error.

I'm using linux mint 21.3, and a process (brave aka chrome) sometimes memory leaking, so eats all the RAM, and then linux goes into swap death loop, when everything freezes (sometimes the mouse cursor is moving), and nothing can't be done, i can just see the HDD led blinking, and do a reset. Is there a way to make the system automatically detect swap death loop, and close the biggest ram user process, and so on?

I want to access an unrestricted desktop at home (preferably a docker novnc desktop container), from the very restricted office laptop/network.

The foundations are clear, started a docker container with novnc access published the porst, forwarded the required ports on my router, and i can access it from outside using my phone, or my own laptop, but can't from the office.

The novnc landing page loads, but the connection to remote desktop fails, probably because the websockets connections are also blocked in office, so only the plain http(s) accesses are allowed (not even RDP is allowed).

(Not even dyndns providers are allowed, but i can note my current ip address in my phone :D )

Ofc i barely can install anything on office laptop, so i can create fe openvpn tunnel, etc...

Do you have some hints if it can be solved?

Hi! I see the indicators how comments are there for posts, but if i want to view them, i see only few, or none at all, but an infite loading indicator. I know i have to open comment threads, but either way, the indicator shows there should be waaay more comments than i see. Why is that? Im using Connect client, but also same if i open my instance from a web browser. Switched instance too, all the same. For example the indicator shows 337 comment for the post, but if i open i see 2 comment threads, with around 10 comments overall. Other case, it shows 1 comment, then if i open, i see "No comments". Also, mostly if i see "View more (x)" and i tap on them, no more appears there, just this view more disappears. My blocking list is empty, no defederated instance comments. I see this problem on 99% of post, if there are comments on it.

Edit: Now i dont even see the first comment, only i could read it in my notifications.
