Well, that was weird. My dock had stopped charging my laptop. I switched cables around and charged other things (my phone) just fine. Then I bypassed by dock; USBC straight from power to laptop. still no charge. I restarted exwm. Still no charge. So I shut down my computer, seeing if it would charge while it was off. Bingo! Then I restarted my machine. It kept charging! Was it the computers USBC failing to carry charge? Was it my Totu dock failing to paso the charge to the PC? Was it my custom power brick being too smart for its own good, failing to provide power? I'm not sure. But for sure, #NewYearVoodoo. I hope that's the last time I need to use that hashtag.
