sometimes nvidia drivers are in a state that breaks display reinit on wake from sleep

Hmm, got a question for you about that. What did that appear as for you? Just a black screen and nothing else if it went to sleep?

I had a recently installed app fuck something in my settings so my display is going to sleep after 10 minutes, and when I wake it up I get a normal appearing lock screen with a login. If I login, the screen goes black and all I can see is the mouse cursor. I think about 1 time in 10 it will have no issues and I get back to whatever I’m doing.

I didn’t start with manjaro, but it was the only one that seemed to play nice with my system and programs out of the five or so I tried. I’ve never had an issue with it after 2 years, so… eh?

That’s always how it starts…

Some of these I roughly get, but manjaro, facebook the other f ;), and opensuse just don’t make sense to me.

For the addicts with their finger smashing the downvote button

Lol, dude, at the 3.5 hour mark since you edited, and the 3.52 hour mark since you wrote the post, you have a whole TWO downvotes. Persecution complex much?

Ah, cool, but what’s GNU?

Well, yeah, but what’s GNU?

Yeah, but what’s GNU?

The servile corporate wageslaves who disregard their rights and throw a fit whenever they need to troubleshoot something,

This is what drives me fucking nuts. Somehow everyone seems to forget that they are constantly troubleshooting “the computer” for the people that they would have to troubleshoot “Linux” for. And why is that such a complaint? After all:

and asking users to click a button or type a word “is just too much.” It’s freaking sad.

Nobody who has had to deal with computers has gotten away from going through some esoteric help website with commands like “win+R,” then “sysinfo” or “regex” or whatever, clicking through a five layer deep directory, and changing something. Alternatively, you might have been forced to uninstall a driver and reinstall an older version, or update bios with a usb. The only difference with linux is the instructions you’ll be following will be for a terminal line, MAYBE. Just as an example of what you’ll find if you’re searching for help with linux. They have instructions for if you have no earthly idea what you’re doing. No one can tell me that you had that much hand holding when you were having to figure out why the hell the windows update wouldn’t install without giving you a bluescreen of death.

Sometimes it is a little more complicated than just getting the mod to be top dog in the launch. I just recently got skyrim working with mods, and it was definitely annoying. I still can’t get starcraft to work right.

Bro, no one who is a ‘casual user’ or is one of the “people who aren’t into technology” will ever need to look at the AUR. I’ve set up Endeavor for a friend who is, lovably, an idiot. He used it, without issue, for games on steam, opening documents, and browsing the web, which is one thing more than most will be using it for. Everything a casual person might need is in a gui.

I hate you for the title, but I hate AP even more for such a clickbaity bullshit title that you had to copy.

That’s already a thing with pardons.

I hate you right now. >:(

It’s all about who you can say it to. As much as elmo is probably trying to change it, right now the dystopian future of shadowrun hasn’t appeared, and the various governments are still the big dogs in the pound. See brazil for a recent example. Even apple, famously trying to thwart regulations, has eventually caved to the EU on the charger issue, as another example.

Good thing musky got that big compensation package shoved through, eh?

I was hoping it would say someone finally told Trump, “Bitch, get back in your place because no one is putting up with your shit.” Imagine my disappointment at the reasonable attempt to lower tensions and appease.

Vance. I think he and his puppet masters would love the excuse to join with putin’s past allies. Russia gets the land, united states of stupid gets half the resources contracts to aid in building the ‘infrastructure’ and such to process the resources.

I see you already have a ton of recommendations, but I’ll throw in the Zowie/BenQ mice. I’ve had mine for I think 6-8 years and it’s still going strong. The only thing it doesn’t have is the left/right wheel function. It looks like they’ve gone a little heavy on the ‘gaming’ focus in their branding, but the designs haven’t changed much in the time since I bought mine.

I remember one (snapchat maybe?) that couldn’t block it so it just alerted the other person you took the screenshot. Maybe it’s changed in a decade.
