Panic Mode and Initramfs and Alcoholism

I really hit the Panic Mode in Linux that only happened once or twice during 32 bit mode.

Emmabantus was running Initramfs and it was taking time and since this was in the external disk booted, I had the courage to press the off button of the computer.

With a firm press I switched it off but won't switch it on again.

?RAM gone!
?Graphic Card gone!
? Computer ready for Junk Yard!

In 32 bit mode one has to wait 24 hours for the RAM to flush electromagnetically.

In 64 bit this is the first time.
I had no idea.
Had a cup of tea and slept, day time sleeping is my routine.

Another coffee and switched, it on after 5 hours.
It did boot up to the master or primary disk of only 120 GB SDD.

Debian 11 running.
Logout the administrative mode and login in with user mode, switched off and got a book to read.

Last chapter Singalo-Vada Sutta in old English.

I was looking for Singalo Vada Sutta in English for ages but could not find.

I was convinced Buddha did not go into our life beyond 8 precepts (not even 10).

I stand to correction.

A comprehensive guide of 14 acts.

List them without any order.

1. Partiality hit me first.
Do not follow judgement on your fellow beings specially your spouse.

2. Control your anger, I was a guy with short burst on daily basis.

3. Do not lie.

4. Do not steal.

5. Do not be a fool.

6. Do not try to be a professional, it invariably applies to me.

Last two I forgot.
Re-referred the text

7. Fear

8. Impurity of what?

Note there is no reference to alcohol at all.

That was revealing.

Having a tot on the sly is allowed?

The last SIX (6) was the most important.

Do not associate with bad friends.

1 Number one is, DO NOT associate with an alcoholic friend in the bar.

Unfortunately I did not read this before finishing my book on Charms of Alcohol.

Poverty
Strife or conflict
Disease
Loss of character
Shame
Impaired senses or faculties

Public display of one's personality good in my vase and bad in All Ceylonese including Wira Wansa with Racial rhetoric.
Of course Pu....ke, Vasudeva included.

What Buddha says is associating with these guys leads to financial meltdown.

I immediately gave a call to one of my class mates who had bad friends and was really an alcoholic.
Strangely he was in  Temple and I told him to Teach the Young, the Singalo Vada and practice it yourself.

2. Number two dicing or gambling.

3. Idling and sleeping and getting up late and loitering with your friends in the night shadowy beings.

4. Becoming a libertarian including 'woke' culture guys.

5. Going to films, theater, dancing and singing with your buddies.

6. Associating with outlaws cheats, swindlers, rouges, that include some Prime Ministers and Presidents like Zelensky in Ukraine.

So in actual fact Buddha had American Neocolonials in mind 2500 years ago.
