I plugged in a monitor yesterday on my work laptop 's HDMI port and it did nothing. After some troubleshooting I apparently had to unplug the USB-C dock for it to work. Let's not pretend Windows is smooth sailing all the time.

At a meeting I was given some kind of remote dongle to duplicate my screen to a monitor and it did nothing. Had to run some exe first. Again, not plug and play.

But there was always a workaround.

Is fixmbr still used?

Is that command line stuff? Hard pass for Windows users.

Edit: I guess the Windows users didn't like that joke

Odd, maybe it's time to try again? I use CanvasBlocker, very apt name 😄

Just to be clear, I use Firefox.

You could also whitelist websites probably, so it works unless you explicitly tell it not to.

Leave some pussy for the rest of us...

Yeah, but which..

I installed such a plugin after reading about fingerprinting many years ago and have not ran into any problems yet. What issues have you encountered?

Surely the communication of the device could be monitored and analyzed?

This changelog is exactly what I was talking about a few days ago. It says nothing. Why even bother...

Just bought "old shit" 7th gen and 8th gen intel PC's, complete, for 350, with gtx1080 cards. These are still pretty good. My own pc is a 7th gen intel with a 1060 and it still does everything I want with ease. It never feels slow, except for, of course, the latest games. Which I can now run on the PC's with the 1080. I wanted to bridge a gap and found these are actually very capable for anything I throw at it.

Hi doggy

It's not that they caused it, it's that they're putting this forward as a healthier and better alternative to pasteurized milk, which leads to the connection with the news.

You played 2 hours to die like this?

We are trialing off brand docks. Wouldn't be a trial otherwise 😄 these work perfect btw.

I feel like I'm missing something important here as a simple fediverse user. I don't really care about the politics, I just made an account during the first large Reddit exodus and choose an instance I thought would persist. I also made a second account on kbin.social, but it looks pretty dead as a project.

I never noticed anything described in this thread, but I'm subbed to many communities across the fediverse...

We bought some for work to trial and they cost 65€, so hardly hundreds

There's always a MAC address, it's just the dongle's then.

Cool, if this works like how you are implying, then this is going to make my life a bit easier.

Arch is on the bleeding edge and it doesn't ask for a reboot. I think it asks for a reboot to load the kernel parts that have updated. Arch probably just assumes you'll do it eventually, but if you don't it'll just keep running the current kernel.

Dutch uses "do under" (onderdoen).
