This was created at a time when European societies found a new appreciation for the language of mathematics. Thus [the Christian] god is depicted as constructing the world itself using the tools and precision of mathematics.

Don't know how (or if) I can upload video clips directly to Lemmy, so I used Imgur instead.

I'm also using the deck as a work machine and for that I connect an external monitor, keyboard, mouse. Getting the monitor to display correctly is quite the hassle though.

Suspends, reboots, turning off the dock's power overnight or switching tween gaming and desktop mode all can cause issues with the external display being detected properly. Sometimes the deck uses it's internal display instead. Or worse both screens stay black and I have to restart the deck by holding the power button. Other times the desktop environment uses the wrong resolution and I have to manually adjust it. Or the resolution is correct but the image is off center (leaving a black bar on one edge of the monitor and missing rows of pixels on the opposite side).

¿Are others experiencing these issues as well? I never have trouble with the other peripherals (keyboard, mouse, network cable).

I purchased Steam's official dock cause I wanted the additional charger. ¿Can owners of docks from alternate manufacturers report how well external displays connect? Might be worth a switch to save me all the hassle.

edit: I just learned that you won't receive updates to the dock unless you follow this procedure:

1. power everything off (shut down deck completely, don't just sleep it)
2. remove all peripherals connected to the dock (except network cable if you use that for your connection)
3. start the deck
4. if there are any updates for the the dock, they should show in the options of gaming mode

🤨 why tho, valve? why not show dock updates always? how am I supposed to know about them otherwise... 😮‍💨

Yes, inspired by Alfons Mucha!

I've had multiple occurrences of this lately with programs installed as flatpaks, such as Audacity (audio editor). The updates section might list 3.6.0 --> 3.5.4̀ for a program.

Whenever this happens I usually manually exclude any version downgrades and only upgrade the rest.

¿Can this happen due to security issues? ¿Or because the higher version has become incompatible with something else on my system?

Ich hatte mal eine Kommilitonin die größtenteils in den Vereinten Arabischen Emiraten aufgewachsen ist. Sie konnte perfekt Deutsch, hat aber manchmal drollige Ausdrücke, falsche Präpositionen, etc verwendet.

Sie sagte zum Beispiel immer:

den Lichtschalter zu machen

der letzte macht das Licht zu

Kann sein, dass dieses konkrete Beispiel auch irgendwo im DACH Raum als Dialekt existiert, aber sie hatte noch viel mehr solcher Dinger. Das ist leider einzige Beispiel, was mir zurzeit noch einfällt.

Ich hab mir damals sagen lassen, dass diese kleinen Ungereimtheiten von den Sprachschulen in der Arabischen Welt stammen. Sie werden dort wohl teils einfach so unterrichtet.

Fallen euch noch mehr solcher Beispiele ein? Kann auch aus anderen Teilen der Welt stammen. Eine Aufstellung dazu wäre mal ganz interessant. Vielleicht kennt auch jemand eine Internetseite dazu?
