That last line is why I shared it with others who have no idea what half the things it's referencing are.
...huh?
Trade war summed up
"Eww, slop"
"But also, it's a stupid joke. Low effort joke made with low effort means..."
"...eww, low effort slop."
Yeaaahhh. I never really had the desire to go there. It always felt like a... vulgar place? And not like the kind of vulgar you hide from your parents. The kind of vulgar that burns itself into your memory against your will.
Walking around the neighborhood.
It's good exercise, you can meet your neighbors, and sometimes you can pick up something someone is throwing away that's in good condition.
Yeah I have a kobo. You can bypass creating an account and just use calibre. No need to install something that isn't stock.
I really hate the modern internet for this.
This caught me completely by surprise in the direct.

How can I fix the multi monitor thing?? Whenever I connect my TV screen everything freezes unless I unplug one of my desktop monitors.
Whoa, TIL about this.
Directions unclear, I tried snapping with my pinky (instead of with my middle finger) for far too long before I realized you meant "snap like normal except put your pinky up."
This was likely done in anticipation for the tariffs.
Ew, slop.

When replacing big services you're not going to find a single solution. You will probably find several smaller solutions that all specialize in one or two things.
Thank you for the informative response. I knew rust was a programming language, but didn't know it's significance.
Probably anyone who's shocked at this happening.
I hate you. TAKE MY UPVOTE. You SUDO'D ME TO UPVOTE YOU!
Props to them. That sounds like a woman dying in a very unsexy way.
I heard about it recently, I think someone said some of the devs from the earlier battlefield games made it. Or were part of the team or something

You mean "heterosexual color arches?"

I got a glorious 32" IPS monitor and I'm confused and disappointed.
I recently picked out a 32in QHD monitor to pair with two 27in QHDs for a triple-monitor setup. After using the 27in QHDs for a few years I decided the pixel density was a bit too high for comfort so I decided to upgrade my primary to a 32in.
Both of my QHD screens are IPS monitors with 178 degree viewing angles, so I made sure the 32in monitor I picked was an IPS screen with a 178 (or higher) viewing angle. With a little color correction everything should look the same, but wow, this monitor really looks different.
When looking at the monitor straight-on from ~2 feet away the sides of the screen are dark. The best way I can exaggerate this is if I fill the screen with white and move my head side to side. The "bright" part of the screen stays straight in front of me and the rest of the monitor gets darker as it gets further away.
My other two monitors don't do this. I can tilt both of them to an extreme angle before they start to appear dark. **I don't understand what is dif

I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It's fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.
After setting my computer to "suspend," it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.
- My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
- Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03
- My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)
I can't make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!" line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Help getting Metaphor ReFantazio working in Lutris/Heroic
Trying to get the FitGirl repack to run in Lutris or Heroic. I'm running PopOS! with Nvidia 470 drivers. (Using xorg, not wayland.)
I installed the game on my Win10 partition and it runs fine, so instead of re-extracting everything I just copied over the installed game directory over to linux.
I tried running the game in lutris, but the framerate is less than 1fps, constantly. The main menu is navigable with extreme patience. I've tried running in Heroic as well. Same problems. In Heroic I'm using Wine-Wine-GE-Proton8-26, which looks like the most recent version of Wine-GE (even though there is a separate entry for "Wine-GE-Latest" with the same release date.)
Looking on Lutris' website, there isn't exactly any documentation on what dependencies I may be missing: https://lutris.net/games/metaphor-refantazio/
Checking FitGirl's repack site, the comments go on forever and no one is talking about issues running on linux. I've seen youtube videos showcasing it being playable on

Deezer ARLs
Where are you guys finding you Deezer ARLs for Deemix etc.?
The megathread post here hasn't been updated in a while. The last ARL expired Sept. 10th. That page does link to a telegram post, but it's also expired.
I don't have telegram, but by incrementing the last few numbers in the URL I was able to find a more recent ARL, but this is a hit-or-miss technique.
I was thinking about getting a telegram acct to follow Firehawk, however telegram works, but I is there a simpler way? I know of YAMS and Lucida, but Deemix is really nice.
Many users here speak the joys of soulseek, but I'm under the impression Deezer would have a higher base-standard for quality.
EDIT: Solved, thanks to this comment. The ARLs list isn

After upgrading from Ubuntu Jellyfish to Numbat, my desktop seems broken? Super key doesn't open menu, dark theme/settings doesn't work. How can I fix this?


One of the wallpapers has XFCE on it, but I didn't change my desktop environment. Also of note, when I open the terminal it doesn't look the same as it used to. Instead of the dark purple window it's a black window with white text and the window's icon is a red "X" with a dark blue "T" on it.
This is a headless machine and I connect to it through remote-desktop.
If I go through the applications menu (manually clicking, the super key does nothing and my keyboard does not have a "Fn" key) and go to settings I get the window on the left. Changing the settings in this window does nothing. Right clicking the desktop and clicking "desktop settings" I get the window on the right. This window correctly changes the wallpaper.
When I open the home folder I get Thunar.
My guess is there are two desktop environments competing or something right now? How can I fix this?
Also, weirdly, if I click my name in the upper right I can "lock screen" and "log out..." but I can't "switch user," "suspend
