Repertoire
gollark: Your leg seems weirdly lumpy.
gollark: Natural ≠ good, as they say.
gollark: Some classrooms have no/broken WiFi coverage for no apparent reason despite sometimes having access points *in them*, which is a problem since because something something COVID-19 teachers got laptops instead of using the NUCs in the classrooms.
gollark: Oh, and there seems to be an issue storing preferences so Edge will ask you to set it up again on every login.
gollark: Even when you actually log in it's unusable for a while more because Windows spends a while using 100% CPU for no apparent reason. You can hear the NUCs VRRRRRRRRing as loudly as they can.
