Ah, right, now I remember why I hooked up one of my monitors to my onboard graphics...
Because, despite the fact that my graphics card has 6 ports, it has a limit on 4 outputs for no apparent reason.
Linux doesn't seem to like outputting through both the onboard and PCI graphics simultaneously, but since the odd monitor out is a TV, I'm thinking maybe I can find a way to cast media to it without it counting as a proper monitor...
One of the saddest parts about trying to use #Linux is the number of replies to people seeking help for common problems that expressly say "Just rebuild everything".
On the other hand, the company blowing $50B on something that only creates additional liabilities means I'm that much more likely to be able to exercise my put options.
Okay, now that I finally got it to install and I'm playing for some time, my assessment of #Fedora#Linux is, quite simply:
It's great, when it works.
Now, let's put Linux's famous configurability to the test by trying to get my unique weirdo keyboard layout to work properly (I use Programmer Dvorak, but I like it to revert to QWERTY when I hold the Ctrl key to make ergonomic choices for shortcuts (think, ctrl+z through ctrl+v) still work.)
It's crazy that the entire drive to make "slimmer" rather than "sturdier" devices can probably be traced back to fashion designers refusing to give women reasonable pockets.
The fact that he still wouldn't have complete financial disclosure if it weren't for investigative journalists' work is, on its own, enough reason to impeach and replace him.
You can't allow blatant corruption to go unpunished in the highest offices of the land and still expect people to believe in the system. This kind of thing is just begging for revolution or civil war.

PSA: if you park in front of the restaurant, blocking traffic, instead of using a parking space 15 feet further away, and you don't have a debilitating condition requiring you to do so, you're officially a bad person.
I discovered today that there are additives you can buy and pour into your car's gas tank to make the exhaust smell good, with flavors like berries and citrus.
I kinda have to agree with Putin here. Russia is getting its ass kicked by farmers on tractors. Why would they want to pit their woefully inadequate military against the vastly superior NATO forces? That would be crazy.
