You know how people used to groan at someone saying "I googled"
(instead of searched), I do that with "I asked chatgpt." With AI it's
quite a lot like "ask the oracle." If you know your old-school
stories, the oracle was a bit of an evil genie.

I had sort-of wondered if it might be along those lines (not knowing if
you had a dongle receiver, or something on-board), and not sure if I'd
expressed it (my memory is getting bad at juggling multiple thoughts
the last half year), whether it may be one of the newer power-saving
options which have crept in for "greenie" reasons (like computers going
to sleep when /allegedly/ idle, and not waking up).
