Hit control/alt/delete.

Your Vat app requires an upgrade.

Do you wish to upgrade now?

May need to change your password.

Shouldn’t have upgraded your cauldron to win 11

Give the cauldron a swift kick or use an iron mace to restart the cauldron.

Hit Ctrl+Alt+Del somehow!

reboot needed___

The Kenosha Kid

Need some fresh eye of newt, but they’re being used in Scotland.

It seems like syntax error, he should check whether he used a correct daemon. Daemon, demon, not the same thing :)

Is the cauldron plugged in?

Let’s see a little spinning. Don’t you just love the spinning.

Time to move on to Unix and leave the blue tub of death behind!

Well, at least it isn’t the blue screen of death.

He probably needs to take that piece of footwear out of the vat and put it back in.

He needs to reboot.

That’s one bored ghoul.

It’s another darn spook net outage.

OK, try this: Frammin at the Jim-jam, Frippin in the Krotz!

Vat’s too bad for Wiz!

“program has stopped responding” . . .THANK GAWD!

Garbage in garbage out…shut down.reboot, then continue

Was supposed to be ZOT, not ZOLT

Yeah, I miss “Game of Thrones”, too. :.(

You just need to kick it again. Reboot.

Must be a Microsoft product.

The vat runs Windows? Maybe it’s time to install Linux…

404 Error: Ghoul not found.

Try Control-Alt-Delete. That tends to work in my experience.

You are a Dark wizard, Wiz. Flush the vat, and refill with Linux.

We know how that goes!

OUT OF CHEESE ERROR. ~~Hex, Discworld’s Unseen University computer (“Anthill Inside®”)

I’m inclined to agree with those who suggest installing Linux. The puter I’m using now has Ubuntu 20 & Win 10 installed, & I boot into Windoze maybe once a year when I run into something that doesn’t play well with Linux (or Mac OSX on my other puter).

Day off, strike or internet down?

this is foreign to me

Still on windows 95 wiz?

Oh no you have a Vat computer Virus.

Must be a Microsoft product.

Re-BOOT, Wiz! Re-BOOT!

You need to switch to “premium” for full access.

You PROMISED there would not be another VATNOWS!
