My collection of .EXE files out of which the most important is the one i use daily.

I use Boost for Lemmy. That's about as far as i go for customization.

That's racism's cousin.

Knowyourmeme dot com? 🤔

They mean the vehicle. The meme is a statement comparing scrolling our feed to using a crosswalk. So many van posts we might as well just go out for a walk this week.

Thanks for replying.

I have just plugged my monitor into my Nintendo Switch, and still nothing on-screen BUT sound comes through the speakers.

So that's a good sign.

I do NOT have the jog switch menu memorized so idk how to mess with brightness to see if it went to zero some how.

Edit: so I was able to find and download the user manual for my specific monitor. I have confirmed that the brightness is set to 100% because the backlight does come on. Will edit post with pictures.

 

I have the T55 27inch curve monitor that randomly went to a black screen and will not display anything.

No built-in menu, no pop up saying searching for inputs like HDMI. Nothing.

I was playing "For the King 2", and my monitor just goes dark. My pc was still running the game and I could hear others in Discord just fine.

Right now i am unsure of what to do. I have tried the following:

  • Unplug monitor for 30+ seconds
  • Checked HDMI cable
  • Held the Jog switch for 1 minute
  • Plugged monitor into the wall
  • Tried using the directional functions on jog switch (just cause screen to flicker on and off but nothing is displayed.
  • Restarting computer (which obviously did nothing).

Am at a loss right now. Had this monitor for about 3 years so I think the warranty is gone. What do I do if it doesn't start working in its own again?

Edit: Imgur post showing the issue

Edit 2: I decided to contact Best Buy and see about trade-ins, and discovered I bought the 4 year extended warranty!! So i got it exchanged for a "different" model... Which turned out to be the exact same thing just called something else.

Well, on my side there's no "space" where the image should be. It seems to be a text post with a hyperlink.

Could be bugged, idk, but there's not even a thumbnail for me. Just the link 🤔

I can see it in Boost if i click the link, but the image isn't shown in the post itself. Is that what you mean?

I bet it's a browser thing. On FireFox I cannot load the YouTube homepage until i login, but on Chrome it's perfectly fine.

Yeah there was a big overhaul of the UI with the release of 2.80. Then the devs just kept updating it and it's past version 4.0 now.

Edit: but the white text box in OP's meme isn't a part of it.

That last paragraph.... WINBLOWS ALREADY DOES THIS!

i swear it does it when it's not supposed to. In the past 6 months my desktop has been waking up from sleep, and also me, just to start an update I was even unaware was happening. And if it's not updating the system it sits there at the login screen.

So I've started shutting my pc down before bed to avoid this happening.

Edit: not the checkbox thing. It updates and downloads stuff sometimes without me telling it to.

 

The past couple of versions i have used would only allow me to open the comments of YT Shorts one time, then it would load blank any time after until I fully closed the app.

My current version, 19.04.37 Non-root, will some times open a YT Short immediately when the app opens, and i have to quickly hit Home before it loads... Else the app will close when trying to go back.

So, I'm curious if others have had similar issues as well? And does each patch have its own quirks like these?
