Also the origin of the term booting a computer.
Isn’t that how it’s used now? (Although I wouldn’t say “sarcastically” but rather “metaphorically”.) I would define it as referring to a task that is very difficult due to a lack of outside support.
nowadays i hear it exclusively used to tell someone to ‘toughen up’
Sure you’re not thinking of “pull yourself together”?
I figured that the people saying it meant “you need to find the strength to do this yourself since no one is going to help you”.
“You need to find the strength to do the impossible because we won’t spend money on minorities and poor people” is how it is used today.
