After a grueling 4-hour marathon debugging the mt7921e Wi-Fi module on my ASUS Zenbook running Pop!_OS, I packaged my recovery routines into standalone tools. Can be run directly as scripts or sourced in ~/.bashrc.
Unexpected behavior like this after a sudo apt upgrade is by far the worst thing about running Linux on a Windows laptop haha :') But when you're back in control of a machine free of Windows bloat, the feeling truly is priceless. And this gives me newfound appreciation and makes me excited to experiment more with shell scripts! π±
