I didn't realize that OP was actually the tech illiterate in the story and thought I was making a funny joke. Here's a true story as an apology
>be me
>need to connect my 3ds to wifi to download a game
>roommate has some weird wifi setup incompatible with 3ds
>turn my linux laptop into a wifi access point with an open source script from github
>everything works
>feel pretty good about myself
>next time I use my laptop, wifi not working
>oh fuck what did I do
>assume i burnt out wifi card
>use raspberry pi wifi dongle for an entire fucking year
>fast forward to two weekends ago
>decide that its time to replace my wifi card
>as I'm googling for info, something occurs to me
>look in that script's bug tracker for broken wifi bugs
>sure enough, there's something that looks like my situation
>maintainer even implemented a command to undo the damage
>a years worth of wifi dongling
>fixed with a single command

Becoming skilled at technology only means you have more tools at your disposal with which to be retarded.

That's a tablet dipshit

>>59777558
Doesn't look like it, but even if so

>>phone reboots

OP you failed.

>>59777558
Nah, that's my monitor. Didn't screenshot my phone because yeah.

>>59777573
You kind of need to reboot to implement new shit. But yeah, didn't expect to be stuck in bootloop after I tried flashing an emergency kernel that didn't work for shit.

>>59777626
>phone
>tablet

>>59777628

OP here, never said it was a tablet lol.

Assuming >>59777558 isn't you.

>>59777687
24" monitor. My GPU was acting up, so I got a new one. Pretty sure it's dead, but I'll test it one of these days.
