I expected to read a solution, not just the symptoms- but other than the theory that the monitor is connected to a power cable that runs under the floor, and the employee who triggers the screen to shut off is heavier than the others and stepping on the cable, there isn't anything relevant posted there. I'm currently searching for a solution to a clients' random monitor shutoff issue so I was hoping for some insight!
It did, however, give me a greater appreciation for the quality of comments on HN compared to Reddit.
