23:13 - Power failure
Seems like an annual thing that something fails in the development machines but yesterday my CPU, motherboard and memory burned over due to a power spike in my apartment. I'm rebuilding the machine now. Means I had to purchase pretty much new system to get going again. Hopefully tomorrow things will be back to normal.
