Uh no, the ground pins need to be at the bottom so they’re near the ground idiot

It’s definitely not that for me as I’m on Nvidia!

Yes that’s pretty much it, there’s a strip around 3/4 of the way down both displays that has white line flicker across it whenever there’s any movement on either screen.

Yeah I’m definitely above the relevant versions for kde and Nvidia

That’s a good idea, I’ll try the endeavour OS live environment as that should be close enough to my setup

How would I tell if that’s the case? And I guess there’s nothing I can do about it if that is the cause?

Well at least I’m better than her other other boyfriend so I’ve got a chance!

The one time I’ve watched a video and thought “actually maybe this would be better as a 1 minute YouTube short”

It should give you the option to abort the shutdown and sort out whatever process it is though! Or at least let you kill it manually from the shutdown terminal. I know you can technically do that with the emergency shell but I don’t like leaving that enabled. Thankfully I rarely get this issue anymore anyway

It’s on Arch and Debian as well which means it’s on basically every distro

More like Hestu because that’s a golden pile of shit

practices developed during Covid should be more than enough to keep people safe at scale

You mean ignoring it, refusing to suffer even a mild inconvenience such as wearing a mask and hoping it goes away right?

Yes it is!

Ah ok, I’d heard Netflix had the issue as well but I don’t use it so I couldn’t confirm. Maybe it’s time to reconsider my prime subscription, although I do still use it for 1 day delivery

They’re both tragedies

Except we’ll take countless other species with us (on top of the ones we’ve already wiped out)

That makes sense, for the amount I use this laptop I won’t worry about it for now! It wasn’t noticeably dusty when I opened it yesterday, and the errors occur immediately after booting so I wouldn’t expect it to heat up that fast

In that case if it still works should I just ignore the error for now and replace the card if it causes any issues?

How?

I just tried increasing it but the maximum I can set is 255 and that made no difference unfortunately. All the Windows VMs are also set at 8 and they don’t have any problems
