My computer stays on all day, all the time. Deprived of rest for years, my computer started seeing … colours. I noticed some aberrant behaviour over several weeks, but I attributed it to the effects of the strange contortions I regularly ask of the computers I use.
Today, however, it finally threw up all over the monitors and stopped working. Repeated resuscitations attempts were met with increasingly shorter periods of liveliness, until finally even those efforts started to fail.
Sigh. At least I have the laptop to back me up.
