If you’re going to go that far, it probably has to be an “active” HDMI cable.

And the price for that beautiful, flicker-free experience is … some Macs will brick themselves. You can get them into a state where (IIRC) the dual-boot between an older macOS and a newer one (or Ashai) disagree on display modes, and the bootloader dies. Only Apple can fix that.

Personally, I prefer the music of Guy Who Blew His Own Head Off

Do you mean that you don’t have to find the LBA of the extents of your swap file, and put that into a kernel argument anymore?

Cuz that is a nasty, skanky hack.

That thing usually goes by the name “wake lock”. I can’t imagine why it’s not doing the right thing by default.

Noticed a strange occurrence where my monitor buttons will not react to presses when certain conditions are met

I have an Acer XV340CKP monitor connected via Display Port to my GPU. I also have a old LG W2253TQ that I use as a secondary display. It only has a DVI and VGA port. I have a DVI-DVI cable together with a DVI-Display Port converter to connect to my GPU, which is an Asus RX6900XT. I am running Nobara 38....

My brother had a screen that would occasionally reboot with fullscreen video, but not if you kept some window decoration onscreen. There must’ve been some degree of (you can not turn it off) image processing that would shit itself. Maybe it was local dimming related.

Everything is filled with software, and a lot of it is hot garbage.

Look, I love spaghettification porn as much as the next guy, but Loki was a mess. The story was gobbldygook. I could not see any good interpretation of all the stuff about purifying non-übermensch timelines. The Wilson / Hiddleston chemistry was great, really that’s the only reason to keep watching.

Did you know that property transfers below 12000ft are non-taxable? Few people know that tax laws have a little glitch where they do not apply below 12000ft.

Delaying also means that you are burning cash with zero income. You can only borrow money on worse and worse terms, and if there is an actual prime rate hike whoa boy are you pooched.

Who here uses a less popular Linux distribution? What made you choose it?

Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I’m curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

I use Ubuntu, which is apparently the least popular distro around.
