  • ?An Unnecessarily Complicated Way Of Starting Your PC? -- Like A Fighte

    From Lawrence D?Oliveiro@3:633/10 to All on Monday, October 27, 2025 22:24:07
    Subject: ?An Unnecessarily Complicated Way Of Starting Your PC? -- Like A Fighter Jet

    This may be how they do it in the movies <https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/case-mods/power-up-your-pc-like-a-fighter-jet-enthusiast-demos-an-unnecessary-complicated-way-of-starting-your-pc>,
    because I would have two questions about the real-life way:

    * Don?t modern fighter jets have computers to do this for them?
    * Aren?t cockpit crew supposed to go through printed checklists to
    ensure everything is operating as it should?
