I think for games, people need newer kernels and drivers to support the newer hardware needed to play newer games, and they’re willing to put up with the bugs that come along with thay. Ubuntu and Debian (stable) aren’t strong at that by definition. I always use an older GPU that supported well by the Ubuntu LTS I run. If it doesn’t play something, I’ll wait till a new driver lands in that LTS or the next.
Good person! This is how you learn Linux and gain experience. Trying to understand why something happened and trying to fix it using that understanding. Not “just reinstall” or worse “you should use X distro instead.”
All decent DP KVMs are very expensive. I got an IOGEAR which is a rebranded Aten. It was also in the same price range. Who knew high resolution needs high bandwidth and high bandwidth signaling and switching is hard…
You could try finding changed config files by running:
sudo debsums -ac
Note that this won’t catch all. There are files that packages install and don’t touch afterwards. I my case for example it does catch that /etc/gdm3/custom.conf was modified to enable autologin among other things.
Wait you thought that meme was factual? 🫨 Even OP themselves said in that thread it was a joke he made to troll Canonical haters. !linuxmemes@lemmy.world is rarely factual.
This sounds plausible. I have seen a few guides for headless use suggesting disabling the built-in remote desktop feature and setting up xrdp, xvnc or related and then trying to fixup that session.
My guess is that something related to the headless setup you had changed during upgrade - likely some package got obsoleted and removed. Then you got some default behaviour from the replacement package along with the rest of the setup.
If you don’t get the help needed to resolve this here, you should also post in askubuntu.com.
Get out with this noise. This is the same nonsense as “just install Linux” to a person with a Windows problem.
Well I don’t know what OP is planning to use it as, but desktop VLC can cast to Chromecast on the LAN for example.
I don’t think you can. On the other hand, if you register a Google account, use a secondary user on your phone to login, install the app and activate the Chromecast, I think you can subsequently use it without the Google account. Delete the secondary user once you’re done with the setup. You wouldn’t have given Google any useful data and you’d have cost them some.
Anything but paying for the labor of a person to draw such a picture.
It’s too close to expiration for a transfer. 😔 givemoney.gif
Plot twist:
Private equity buys your registrar and jacks up the renewal price 5x.
What you’re talking about happened way before the Ticketmaster-Live Nation monopoly became a thing. Today if you want to make a medium to large concert you have no choice most of the time but to use a Live Nation venue and Ticketmaster for tickets. For example Live Nation owns all large concert venues in Toronto and I recently learned they’ve purchased the well known smaller venues over the last few years. They’re now in a position to extract more value from fans and performers. Similar to how large grocery chains can extract from both customers and suppliers.
You should see the video though. It explains things well.
I was going to say that stopping buying tickets obviously won’t prevent them from going up even if it does temporarily but then you said it yourself in the last paragraph. You can’t take away monopoly power without government action.
DevOps is often glorified Bash programming.
