I am Lattrommi. Yes, that one. You’ve never heard of me? I’m not surprised. It is often said that anything you put on the internet will live there forever. It becomes immortal. I do everything backwards and wrong. I do not live forever, I am always dying. ¿|√∞²|?
I don’t know if there is a word for what I was trying to point out.
Like an opposite to gatekeeping, sort of.
I do not like when people use ‘we’, in ways that include people that it does not apply to. Lumping everyone together inaccurately into a group.
I agree that gatekeeping is no good and people should not do that.
However…
we all copy
I do not feel that assuming all people copy, should be done either, in my opinion.
I’ll bet a testicle this was done in GIMP
I thought I could write something worse and came up with this. it was not really a good idea. (i modified it so no one makes my mistake by blindly copy and pasting it. hopefully.)
if [[ -f ~./kitten.sh ]] # if the file kitten exists
then killall -KILL kitten.sh || touch ./kitten # kill all kittens. if that fails, touch kitten.
fi;
echo "Killed kitten... )"; # announce the terrible deed.
# bash kitten.sh; # runs this kitten script again. do not remove # symbol at start of this line, unless you want to have a bad time.
# it will make this run repeatedly. you monster.
This setup isn’t what I use, i had wanted to try as many monitors that i had ports for and this was one result that worked.
2 Sharp 18" tv’s at 60Hz, different models and one can’t do higher than 1280x720p so it was scaled 125%
LG ultrawide 34" 100hz
Asus 27" 75Hz
Samsung 42" tv scaled to 75% but I couldn’t get its refresh rate to change. it’s supposed to do 120Hz but i only get 60 Hz
since switching to wayland, i rarely have monitor problems and i love it, especially after switching to an AMD GPU. i had constant issues from my previous nvidia card.
side note, i’m super poor and all of these except the LG were given to me by friends who no longer had use for them. many of these friends do website design and ask me how their sites look occasionally. they can emulate different screens i think but they’re probably trying to show off or they know i have a huge variety of screens i can test things with. I have at least 6 other monitors from 4 different brands in 3 sizes and 3 different native resolutions with 2 that do rates other than 60Hz. two are CRT’s. now i’m probably trying to show off.
Take a close look at your USB ports and any other ports for debris. Sometimes you end up with shorts that do all sorts of weird shit. The crappy mouse might have warped the port too. It’s probably not the issue but it never hurts to check.
