LG monitor asking about ad tracking preferences
  • I was so pissed when I realised most of the feature on my smart monitor were disabled by disallowing network connection. especially when those features where present on my non smart monitor. Things like dual input so having two devices over HDMI / DPI display on separate portions of the screen was fine on my old lg ultra wide but on the new smart ultra wide it is disabled all because I won't agree to they're terms.

  • when and how did you know you were gay?
  • Congratulations and not sure if I have come to terms myself. For the most part I feel I am straight but I have a crush on one of my friends who I'd happily cuddle up and watch films with. Anyway pretty sure I'm bi.

  • Have you ever had a near death experience? What happened?
  • A few, 7yo appendicitis which ruptured in surgery. 15yo Fell from 3 story high scaffolding and landed on my back. 11yo an adult repeatedly slammed my head onto a wooden floor: maybe not a near death but I had thought that that was the end. 18yo big hill at night friends figgered we would ghost it, brakes off keys out of the ignition, find break don't work and scrabbling to put keys in ignition.. I was drunk so I don't remember much else but we all survived car had a dent on the bumper.

  • Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice?
  • I find it interesting to hear about, was just talking to a somewhat stranger about his holiday today.

  • This is a thought experiment "Ball on a Table" for detecting whether someone has Aphantasia. What do you see when you perform this experiment?
  • I can only see still frames of random motions and detective gadget animated is the character who flicks the ball. The red ball which I then added a hammer and sickle moves with illustrative wooshes across the table bounces off of a wall into detective gadgets eye.

  • Microsoft Edge gets "unfair advantage", browser makers claim
  • Click 'browse web' Microsoft gives a list of popular and mixed browsers that the user can select. Microsoft then installs selected browser. At least this is the only tangible way I can see.

    Whats wrong with Troskyism?

    I see and hear from communists an anger towards Trotskyism. Can someone from an anti-Trotskyist position explain the reasons to avoid Trotskyism.

    What is the most duct-tape thing you've done to Linux?

    tell me the most ass over backward shit you do to keep your system chugging? here's mine: sway struggles with my dual monitors, when my screen powers off and back on it causes sway to crash. system service 'switch-to-tty1.service' ``` [Unit] Description=Switch to tty1 on resume After=suspend.target

    [Service] Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh

    [Install] WantedBy=suspend.target 'switch-to-tty1.service' executes '/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh' and send user to tty1 #!/bin/bash

    Switch to tty1

    chvt 1 .bashrc login from tty1 then kicks user to tty2 and logs out tty1. if [[ "$(tty)" == "/dev/tty1" ]]; then chvt 2 logout fi ```

    also tty2 is blocked from keyboard inputs (Alt+Ctrl+F2) so its a somewhat secure lock-screen which on sway lock-screen aren't great.

    Bristol Stoond Strong: counter protestors out numbered the populist reactionaries.

    We have seen right wing populist protest violently through many cities and towns. Bristol stood strong today outnumbering the few protestors.

    We witnessed division.

    That division is made worse. Many of these protestors on the right have been mislead by modern media. Its so much easier to blame our national issues on migrants and look no further, in this way: calling them "fascists" or blindly proclaiming to want fully open borders may seem to be a gotcha but all we achieve is to alienate the confused working class people who we must bring over to our side.

    Our NHS is fucked from political mishandling, deals with private capitalist. Our homes are in short supply due to private development that build for profit. Our education, utilities and other things aren't businesses and shouldn't profit like them. These are the programme's we must push across.

    Solidarity Bristol I am proud to stand with you.

    Display initialisation crashing.

    Screen on event crashes PC and corrupts journalctl, seems to be an issue with edid.

    Currently solution has been moving to TTY1 then moving back to sway (tty2) as TTY seems to have no issue handling these events.

    Where can I start trouble shooting this?

    Achieve a Clean Desktop with windowed-Fullscreen Firefox and Auto-Hiding Elements Using Cage

    I wanted to share a setup I’ve been using to maintain a clean desktop while using Firefox in fake fullscreen mode. This setup allows Firefox to run fullscreen with auto-hiding tabs and search elements that only show when hovered over, without pushing the webpage content down.

    • Install cage, can be found for most distros
    • Run and test application -d removes desktop decorations, firefox command 'firefox -somecommand' cage 'firefox' -d
    • If running correctly edit launch options in de or .desktop file Exec=cage 'firefox' -d then install auto-fullscreen extension

    its a long work around especially when its possible to get a similar result from editing about:config but this way the tab and searchbar act as a seperate element meaning no misclicking. if anyone has cleaner solution chime in please.
