Like @oznlsaid, if you can find a manual somewhere it might give you some clues as to what's going on. From my experience however it's usually a bad sign if it doesn't start up but it could still be good, don't give up just yet.

I'm a bit uneasy that it worked for an hour or so then died though. I'd have expected a lithium ion battery that had been left laying around for more than 2 years to have gone under volt and shut itself down out of the gate.
That's how amazon makes its money.

It sounds like there might be a short. Try with a non-amazon charging cable to see if it's just the charger, you can probably get one at Best Buy, Micro Center, or stores like that. If it doesn't work, I'd recomend just getting a new machine and see if you can salvage the RAM, CPU, GPU, and/or hard drive as some of those may still work and can be repurposed in building your own computer (if you want, it's not as hard as you'd think), or sell them (if going this route please bring them to a repair shop to determine if any are dead. Also if you had anything really important saved to your hard drive you can usually get your data recovered.) Unless you need or prefer a latop, I'd recommend a desktop instead. They're usually easier to deal with when things happen unexpectedly.
TLDR: It might just be the charging cord. Otherwise you're computer's probably toast. Don't buy tech things on Amazon, they often don't work.

Whatever floats your boat as the saying goes.

From the comments it looks like at least some keys are stored on my personal computer
Not true. They were also covid supporters back in 2020 thinking that contact tracing could be done "anonymously" via bluetooth. Quite a shame.

That would be interesting.

Christmas present that requires a USB-C socket charge source and do you think I can find one of THOSE in the house?
Dollar Tree has those actually. Most other stores charge $10 or so for one because they know people are caught in predicaments like that.
On 12/24/2022 at 9:01 AM, 2sail2 said:My Amazon Fire table from 2017 is now obsolete. First the Optimum app stopped being supported and would not load last year. In the Spring, Amazon notified me I could not use their shopping app anymore and I had to use a browser (prompts for my super long password, which I can never remember). I kept clicking on the shop app and it always redirected for months. About a month ago, it actually loads and I can add to cart. Recently upon joining a zoom meeting, it said it would no longer update. This was my second Fire. Ya, they are cheap, but this is nuts. My previous kindle I did root it, but the os had some issues. I did send it for recycling and discount on a new one, but they noticed I had rooted it, so they sent it back to me. Amazon doesn't appear they offer this anymore...ugh.
The other thing that is no longer supported is my Roku stick of four or five years. This was my second stick too. I have a roku premier in the living room. I wonder how soon it will be headed for recycling.
And yet, I bought a Ring spotlight with camera and when I went to change router to disable older wpa (I think that was it), the Ring would not connect to it! Ugh. Oh ya and add the wifi printer to that one too. And of course, the router company stopped updating the firmware. There is / are probably some security vulnerabilities with it now. I'm expecting the router to go to the recycling heap soon. That would be my third or fourth one.
More and more profits. ??
Sounds like you need to do away with some of that tech. These problems didn't exist before...
This reminds me on a more serious note of how police reform advocates are being murdered in some parts of the US. One would think that people with guns that have authority to shoot people at their descretion should have transparency with the public regarding what they are doing and why. Apparently some legislators/advocate groups think otherwise...

I was thinking more of something like:
- side of battery --> resistor --> urine detector --> LEDs --> + side of battery
PCBs have a habit of crapping out unexpectedly and aren't very good for the environment but if you already have a bedwetting alarm that contains one your idea might work.
I wonder if @Ferixwould be able to make something like that.

I'd think the easiest way to go about this would be to take the padding from several cool alert diapers and add it to your modified diaper. Baking soda/vinegar also become cold when mixed and produce a harmless gas, put this in a sealed bag or balloon and it'll make the diaper inflate.
Now what I think would be really cool (no pun intended) is a diaper that lights up. Only problem is chemical glow sticks are thermally sensitive and don't last as long when warm. (This is also why putting them in the freezer makes them last longer.) An LED light up thing of some sort might be more feasable if it were waterproofed but you'd need some way to activate it (or activate it first and then insert it) whereas glow sticks could simply be inserted in the diaper and then "magically" activate upon wearing the diaper.
Sorry about all the rambling, this is something I've been interested in as well.

You gotta love it when they hire the mentally handicap!
I don't see how blaming a person for having a mental handicap would help anything. The person may have just seen 2 identical items, considered it to be a duplicate and was trying to prevent you from being double charged.

If you have to clock out for break, your boss legally can't ask you to work while on break. That would be asking someone to work while off the clock and is actually a reportable offense.

No.
Have you voted without doing any prior research?

If a diaper comes detached, you can just change into a new one. If a toilet comes detached, it floods your whole bathroom and not just when you're peeing in it.

I can't make a comparison there because @waterfallhasn't posted anything yet.
If you drop a piano down a mineshaft and it strikes an A flat minor, what chord would it strike if you drop it down an elevator shaft?
I guess that would be a diminished minor.
Why is it unseasonably warm this winter?

I was approved for disability do to my PTSD and major depressive disorder. So I spend a lot of time at home and do not as stressed. My divorce was finalized so the stressor is no more and going to move to be living with the my income. Been doing some downsizing. My normal doctor understands that I regress to handle stress and changes I'm not ready for.
Glad to hear that things are moving in a more positive direction.

Might just be a glitch with my device then; I'll see what I can do.

This is the only site on which this seems to happen; could it be something with the forum software itself? Some have that feature hard coded.

If you’re involved openly and publicly making people uncomfortable you’re just asking for a bad experience from the public itself.
This isn't about public behavior. If you can't respect people's personal and non-infringing interests, you put yourself at risk for a criminal conviction. Remember that blackmail is considered a crime in many jurisdictions.

Im sorry what? How did someone wanting a example turn into a explanation.
Anyways, the furry fandom cannot keep going down its current path of taking its issues and throwing it under a rug like it dont exist. Not going to fly anymore. You cant keep silencing people just because you personally disagree with what they say or their situation. I was targeted(as in doxxed,silenced,socially pressured)years ago by babyfurs because of what I said, my living arrangement and how I lived my life ect. Furries are still being selectively singled out to this very day because of the reasons I have stated.
How can they say they are open and expressive when they go after people for doing exactly that???
This way going about things isnt going to work ANYMORE. You cant be liberal and socially conservative in the fandom these days, they have to change and these recent events is a indication that the fandom is changing so its problems MUST BE ADRESSED NOW!
Much of this hate likely has to do with the "anti free thinkers" demographic which unfortunately spans across many other demographics to a degree. I've had some of the same things happen and nearly lost my job on more than one occasion.
Honestly when it comes to social groups like that, maybe your best bet is to file a complaint with the FCC especially if you have proof that criminal conduct is going on there. Much like how Facebook wasn't under fire until around 2016 when they were found to be facilitating election mismanagement.
