Fuck this shit. How many pointless boots I triggered just because I could not manage to get the right key to be pressed at the right time? This is so pointless, so much time lost on this for nothing.
Just show the one key I should press at what time and give me feedback when you understood I wanted to do this.
Now my strategy is to spam the whole Esc + Fn keys row and delete, rinse, repeat until it computes.

- jraph 5y agoI've seen such a key on a Sony Vaio. The label was nothing but explicit, I actually had to look for help. But the button would turn the computer on, and get to the setup menu. Nice touch. Obviously, it was the only nice thing about this terrible machine but that's a different story.
