I like this “directionless” better.
I was stuck on crook -> criminal -> thi-eved?
“imbi” looks like an acknowledged stretch.

So it would've been time for a new SOTW by now, but I haven't posted one for seven weeks now and today's not going to change that.
I've been quite busy, privately with my girlfriend and professionally with my new (first) employee and more projects than I can handle, as well as other things that I would normally be busy with anyway.
Good things to be sure, but I've been listening to music a lot less and when listening I've been listening differently.
Unfortunately, I don't see that changing anytime soon.
So after seven(!) years the curtain officially falls for the SOTW.
Thanks for the amazing recommendations over the years 
Going to end this with an old favorite of mine that just popped up into my head.
Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman - Time To Say Goodbye[^]
Needless to say, I'll still be around posting my Wordle scores and an occassional bad joke

Great song as well.
I love Deep Purple's Machine Head album and some of Black Sabbath's work too.
I think Sultans of Swing was featured in the SOTW once, that probably would've been your cup of tea

Well done for keeping it going for as long as you did, and thanks!

Being that it is mother's day colliding with Diablo 4 server slam weekend, and needing to get my weekly Halo event done, I thought that I would sneak in a late night session of Halo.
I fired up my late night (after midnight) session of Halo.
Then, randomly, without any notice, I'm in the heat of battle with one or more players of the opposing team and my Task switch view (ALT-TAB) would pop up and stay on the screen, ending in me getting my butt handed to me, ie: killed. Restarting the game did nothing. Restarting the PC did nothing. Physically switching keyboards did nothing. Physically changing mice did nothing! Like, wtf! Randomly it kept happening.
Not playing the game the issue did not happen, only when playing Halo!
So after a long day coding at work, then dinner, and more coding on my own project, it is now after 3am, how do you diagnose? Both the keyboard and mouse are Logitech and wireless. Changing to other branded keyboard and mouse did not resolve it.
It wasn't until I tried to use the Logitech app that I had an issue. Reinstalled the app & the problem was solved... partially corrupt or bugged driver.
Hopefully, this experience will help someone...

Call me old fashioned, I prefer Wired mouse and keyboard (with a PS2 connector if possible but will tolerate USB).
I find wireless if a bit unreliable, mice mis-tracking, keyboard caps-lock being random. Wires got man to the moon!

I use to be but these days lag is non-existent. I have plenty of other cables on my desk for all the devices and accessories ... anything to declutter is a plus.
FWIW, the non-logitech keyboard and mouse used were cabled. They are my backups. Still, they had the same issue!

Unless you deinstalled the wireless drivers, the wired hardware was collateral damage.
Could it have been a stuck key state? I used to have that happen with remote desktops sometimes.
Switching between normal video and DirectX might have similar opportunities.

I thought it was but cold booting pc and replacing hardware made no difference. Was just a software driver issue.

So that's why the Israelis, the Indians, and the Japanese moon landers crashed - they tried doing it by wireless.

I bet there was a driver that needed to updated

I don't know about the others, but the Israeli Bereshit lander crashed when the main rocket cut out prematurely. It was literally a bad driver.
