I have seen that, on failing hardware (Dying RAM and/or buffers). But I
assume your terminal is software on the machine in question, so that kind
of failure would be rather obvious in other ways.

Interesting what you find when you search the web for "EVA". (Extra
Vehicular Activity?)

As others suggest, check for parallel processes.

But change in what way, is an important question, as is whether someone in
the same physical location as you is prone to pranks.
