It's good for making up stories and making suggestions. I worked with chatGPT on how to power up a mothballed Galaxy Class starship. We created the procedure to bring the ship from inert and vacuumed to ready for warp flight.

The issue seems to have been resolved?? It has stopped blanking except sometimes when I am logged out. I come back in the room to see it blanked, and then lights back up on its own. Stranger and Stranger.

I did not have this issue when only using the laptop's display, and in fact the laptop display does not blank.

I am using the HDMI port on a USBC port replicator / Dock (so that there is only one cable connected to the laptop)

I recently added an external monitor to my Debian 12 laptop, setting it as the primary display while using the laptop's monitor as secondary. However, I'm experiencing an issue where the external monitor randomly goes black, while the laptop screen continues to display normally. Moving the mouse brings the external monitor back to life. Interestingly, this happens while YouTube is running, with the audio playing uninterrupted. So far, I haven't noticed this behavior with any other applications.

Update: I was running YouTube from within the Firefox browser, not a YouTube app (If one even exists)

(Solved) I would like a small laptop to use to log medical data (Weight, Blood Pressure, etc) as I gather it. I need it to be small like 10'. it can be low power because I will probably use it only CLI, no GUI, but I need it to be inexpensive. ARM-based is ok, as long as I can SSH into my desktop machine.

I triggered an update via Discover, and I think I clicked the [x] (close) title bar button a little too quickly. Would that have stopped the update in mid update or does Discover do the update in a subprocess that continues even if Discover is closed?

What if, instead of sending you into the past, weeping angels sent you into your future? Say the 'harvest' a 20 year old and send them into the future where they are 80 years old - the angel gets the energy of the 60 years.

Google Maps is changing and will keep drive log data on the phone. I like to go on photo-drives following roads to find "Kodak moments", I also would like a map of my random rambles. I would prefer that the data for that map be locally collected on my phone but the map itself uploadable to my laptop. Does anyone have an App for that?

Canon EOS R50: Does the camera have GPS and can it record the location pictures were taken? I have GPS in my phone can the camera use that? I see the camera has WiFi - so does the phone perhaps that can transfer the location at the time a picture is taken.

At one time when I would launch a program from the Task Manager the icon would stay in place, now when I launch something like Firefox for example, the Icon moves down to the bottom of the list. When I exit it moves back up to where it was.

I can't seem to find a setting that relates to this.

I am using just "Task Manager", is the thing I want in "Icons Only Task Manager"?

I have a Canon EOS R50, a mirrorless camera, which also seems shutterless - If I take pictures of, for example, an airplane with a spinning propeller, will I still get that "strange rubber propeller" effect? 1) the camera may have a shutter and I just don't recognize it or 2) the sensor is read in such a way as to produce the effect.

I am looking for something simpler than MAME, I want to emulate an 8-bit CPU with 32K RAM and 32K ROM connected to a VT100 type terminal - this would be a simple Linux executable that one runs from the terminal emulator, I will simulate using a built-in teletype by copy/pasting text files into the terminal or copy/pasting screen output to text files.

Either CPU would be good. I will be doing machine-code programming, at least until I build my own assembler. Then, who knows...

I have ribbon controls, but I don't have the menu above that. Also, Libre Office (I use Writer mostly but the launcher also) has made itself full screen, and that interferes with the panel (which I keep on the left side). I have had to resort to Alt-F4 to quit. How can I get menus back? Will I be able to get Libre-office to respect the open panel?

If a YouTube ad installs a virus on my system, can I sue YouTube?

New camera, nube photographer.

In my R50 the autofocus area can be selected and moved around, but can it be locked to the center? I currently have it set to the point focus, so the smallest focus area, but I find that the box that shows where the camera is focusing moves around (no faces involved or vehicles) Usually the focus square jumps up and to the right, and sometime moves around while I am trying to compose the shot. Is there a way to lock it down so it will stay in the center?

Update: I tried several things and lost track of some of them. It seems my focus point is staying put now - it is just off-center but close enough to make me happy.

One of their choices should have been: "This survey is exactly the reason I am going to a different browser. "

Every time I have asked ChatGPT to code something it seems to lose the thread halfway through and starts giving nonsensical code. I asked it to do something simple in HP41C calculator code and it invented functions out of whole cloth.

I once heard that "Anyone can be charged with a crime if they can be watched closely enough for long enough."
