I haven't compared, I was just happy to get to the main menu with a respectable FPS. What's the standard way to view your performance these days? MangoHUD? Does that work on windows?

Metaphor ReFantazio isn't on GoG.

Baldur's Gate 3, which I mentioned in my other post, is. I am running the GoG version of that game. I'll do GoG any chance I get.

Ok, so switching to Pop on Wayland works. I didn't mention this in my original post, but I've been running Pop on Cinnamon. So I either need to get comfortable with Pop's DE or figure out if this is a cinnamon issue.

Previously I had an issue with fullscreen games having weird lag issues on Wayland. Though... testing that out now, that seems to no longer be an issue.

After trying this for a few minutes, I really don't like how slow the dock shows itself when I hover near the bottom of the screen, and i don't like how the application bar adds visual noise to the top of the screen. To me, it makes more sense for the two bars to be united as one like in cinnamon. :/

Out of curiosity, I wonder if the crash occurs when I'm in Pop x11, or if this is a cinnamon-specific bug.

EDIT: The crash occurs on Pop's default DE on X11, and cinnamon on X11, but not Pop on Wayland.

Do you mean switching from x11 to wayland?

For me personally, any game in the Super Smash Bros series.

They've always been a go-to when hanging out with friends, in their time.

Melee still has a following. Nobody likes brawl because of tripping (among other things i'm sure), but I learned how to mod brawl and added so many custom stages and character skins. Sm4sh was ok, and Ultimate is so complete.

Yeah it's Nintendo and "it's always moral to pirate Nintendo games" and there's plenty to complain about their online services but I've played smash so much that every time a new game comes out immediately a must-buy.

Great game! (Also happy cake day)

What are your favorite games to play?

I used to love president as a kid, now I play it a lot in clubhouse games on the switch. I know a few friends who play spades.

Cool, but all of those alterative clients still require ARLs. They even link to the same ARL page I linked to above, the one with outdated ARLs.

Yeah, there was a big thread on it not too long ago, which is what got me started down that road. But that thread is pretty old now so I didn't want to resurrect it.

Oh man, I can't figure out what I did.

Somehow I routed the main display to the RDP session, meaning if I plug in a monitor I get a black screen instead of the desktop. I have to figure out what file I edited to do that. But searching online now none of the tutorials use whatever method I used roughly 6 years ago.

Oof. This is rough. What config files are you referring to?

I'll give that a try.

Back when I set this up, for some reason, to get RDP working I needed to disable the local video output and have the main desktop be funneled into the remote session. I don't remember the details of how or why. I'll figure out how to reverse it and log in locally and see what I can gather.

This machine has always been GNOME. I ran "sudo do-release-upgrade." I didn't specify any flags for XFCE. I'm going to try to log in locally and see how it looks there.

I didn't have an issue like this going from bionic beaver to focal fossa, but I don't think my setup was as complicated before. Do other distros have this problem? Mint? Debian? (Does Debian ever update?)

Yeah I've been running this machine on ubuntu since Bionic Beaver in 2018. Cannonical wasn't such a bad guy back then, and migrating everything over to a new distro has always taken more effort than it's worth. This machine runs headless and for the most part I interact with it though portainer so it hasn't been an issue.

It's just with the occasional remote desktop login that things are broken now. Do you have a recommended distro for servers/remote desktop usage?

The problem is that some desktop elements/settings seem to be xfce while some others are gnome. I'm going to need to do a deep dive to figure out how I set up remote desktop on that machine. Log in locally, get it working locally correctly, then see if I can get it working over RDP correctly.

Did the open signup window close that fast? Within an hour?

How do you "use cool words" while reading? You're reading words someone else wrote? Are you reading a script you wrote out loud to others or something? Are people accusing you of being an AI to your human face?

...was this meme made by an AI??

Awesome! I'll check this out!!

I really want to know how to extract them as well. I paid for a movie on YouTube since it was available nowhere else and yt wouldn't let me download it without DRM, so I just OBS'd the whole thing.

I had captions on, so they're baked in. I really like captions, but it would be nice to have the option to turn them off.

If the person who died at Disney had not paid for Disney plus, but instead had pirated what they wanted to watch on Disney plus, they would not have signed the contract with Disney plus. That contract forfeited them the right to sue Disney.
