Imagine getting told by a couples therapist that they can’t see your relationship working out… And then you go on a big rant saying how you should still be together?

Honestly, if someone has to go to couples therapy, they’re already at a point where their judgement is written off.

Is this guard supposed to be slacking off on the job?

It works on Firefox EndeavourOS

In this case, you might want to ignore all messages with this pattern.

Perhaps look into other messages

LMDE

Oops! I thought it was some obscure DE.

Considering your points, it seems to be most probably some configuration issue.
Might even be that some of the automated monitor/display configuration tools (might be some GUI settings thing) wonked out and reconfigured something.

If your system has some shortcut combination for selecting external monitor/connected projector/mirror screen, perhaps you can try that.

Also, since you mentioned xrandr, I would assume X Session. You can also use xrandr to check and set the monitor configuration. Not just whether it is connected, but also location (left/right/up/down) and screen resolution of each display separately. Perhaps trying those could tell you what is happening.

So could it be that FromSoftware is considering selling out and working to increase their stock prices, to get a better deal?

This is interesting.
What is the requirement for not using Linux directly on hardware for music?

1. Any recent software updates that you might find relevant?

• It would be good to know which distro you use
• “Samsung commercial” would make me believe it doesn’t get automatic updates, but just in case, that is also a factor.

2. Does the TV work with other input sources on the same port?
3. Reading “Samsung”, I would assume it has multiple input ports. What was the result with other ports.

Interesting case for a KWin plugin/addon

Sony seems to have a pretty workable strategy now.

1. Want to acquire a company for cheaper.
2. Make news that they are going to acquire.
3. Target company’s sales plummet, because gamers don’t want Sony DRM
4. Cheap company to buy.

So unless FromSoftware releases a statement claiming they won’t be bought by Sony, I’m not buying any more of their stuff.

Of course a drive heats up with use.

As I explained in the wall of text above, it was heating when NOT in use.
The reason being that after wake from S3 Sleep, it was turning on and not turning back off (as it should because it was NOT MOUNTED).

I just need to check which process is responsible for the SSD’s power state management (systemd maybe?) and then see if something can be changed.

Imma go make it 52001

Finally, yaay!
Thanks to Wolfgang Müller.

My GPU Zero RPM stayed on until 60°C and considering I lost my laptop to heat just last year, this was pinching me now and then.

Perhaps your GPU is heating up your SSDs?

Of course, that is happening to an extent, but the moon is not hotter than the sun, right?

Also, I later found out, the problem was that the SSD was staying on when I woke from Sleep.

As to why my OFF temp is higher than your ON temp, it’s probably just bad airflow, which I haven’t come to fix yet.

Wait, could this be my first kernel bug?
