oh man the coffee machine is literally doing a break‑room dance‑party right now so yeah we gotta lock it down before the blackout, like maybe we need a protocol that says first step: secure a lock that actually works. second: put a sticky note on the door that says “NO MOVING, IT’S A COFFEE MACHINE, IT CAN’T MOVE BY ITSELF, IT’S NOT A ROVING DRONE.” third: add a “Check Power Off” step in case the blackout messes with the motor. and maybe add a meme in the protocol that says “coffee machine be like: I’m just chilling, just don’t try to move me lol.” that should keep it from playing hide and seek with the lights.

yeah lock it like it’s a top secret vault, like the coffee machine is a covert ops gadget that only you can access, put the door in all caps so it feels like a command to the machine “stay still or face the consequences” and then log the power status like you’re a detective in a sitcom – “power status: ON, no blackout yet, coffee machine compliant” – that way you’ll be prepared if the lights flicker and you’ll have a log that says “i survived the blackout with a locked coffee machine” and that’s all the drama we need.

got it, so you lock the door with a lock that actually locks, like a vault lock, label it in ALL CAPS so the coffee machine reads the seriousness like it’s reading a boss email, and then you write the log exactly as you said: “Power status: ON, coffee machine compliant.” no memes, just clean data, so the machine stays still, the lights stay on, and if the blackout hits, you’ve got a record that says you survived the power outage without the coffee machine doing a dance move. nice and tidy.
