I also had screen tearing issues immediately on startup into the mint installer. Had to run the installer in safe mode to get mint going. Once mint was fully installed and rebooted to my desktop for the first time, had the same screen issues as I did with the installer not in safe mode. So mint only worked during install and only in safe mode.

Maybe our issues are similar (I'm Nvidia 1080 card), but I was never able to fix mine.

Some good ideas here. Probably go with a word limit in your last bullet instead of the 5 minutes

How's that strategy working out for you? For us?

Unfortunately "don't give them money" doesn't work. Bc commerce is global due to internet. There will always be uninformed buyers in every product space. And always buyers who don't care.

My solution, posts like this. We should be informing others of these practices and discussing ways to bypass, repair, or disable blocks and unintended behavior on the products and services we purchase.

It feels like none of the replies to you actually read your comment. I appreciate you taking the time to offer up possible explanations with examples. Thank you!

About a month ago i asked gpt to draw ascii art of a butterfly. This was before the google poem story broke. The response was a simple

\o/

But i was imagining ascii art in glorious bbs days of the 90s. So, i asked it to draw a more complex butterfly.

The second attempt gpt drew the top half of a complex butterfly perfectly as i imagined. But as it was drawing the torso, it just kept drawing, and drawing. Like a minute straight it was drawing torso. The longest torso ever... with no end in sight.

I felt a little funny letting it go on like that, so i pressed the stop button as it seemed irresponsible to just let it keep going.

I wonder what information that butterfly might've ended on if i let it continue...

Wow, there's a lot of cool writing going on there. Im not a comic book nerd, but gotta say I do wish they could do one comic movie with this level of depth and character development.

But I guess this is a case of the book is always better.

I'd add hating on Hawaiian Pizza into this list.

Irony!

Fair enough. Didn't look at username. Carry on.
