I’ll give that a try.

Back when I set this up, for some reason, to get RDP working I needed to disable the local video output and have the main desktop be funneled into the remote session. I don’t remember the details of how or why. I’ll figure out how to reverse it and log in locally and see what I can gather.

This machine has always been GNOME. I ran “sudo do-release-upgrade.” I didn’t specify any flags for XFCE. I’m going to try to log in locally and see how it looks there.

I didn’t have an issue like this going from bionic beaver to focal fossa, but I don’t think my setup was as complicated before. Do other distros have this problem? Mint? Debian? (Does Debian ever update?)

Yeah I’ve been running this machine on ubuntu since Bionic Beaver in 2018. Cannonical wasn’t such a bad guy back then, and migrating everything over to a new distro has always taken more effort than it’s worth. This machine runs headless and for the most part I interact with it though portainer so it hasn’t been an issue.

It’s just with the occasional remote desktop login that things are broken now. Do you have a recommended distro for servers/remote desktop usage?

The problem is that some desktop elements/settings seem to be xfce while some others are gnome. I’m going to need to do a deep dive to figure out how I set up remote desktop on that machine. Log in locally, get it working locally correctly, then see if I can get it working over RDP correctly.

Did the open signup window close that fast? Within an hour?

How do you “use cool words” while reading? You’re reading words someone else wrote? Are you reading a script you wrote out loud to others or something? Are people accusing you of being an AI to your human face?

…was this meme made by an AI??

I really want to know how to extract them as well. I paid for a movie on YouTube since it was available nowhere else and yt wouldn’t let me download it without DRM, so I just OBS’d the whole thing.

I had captions on, so they’re baked in. I really like captions, but it would be nice to have the option to turn them off.

If the person who died at Disney had not paid for Disney plus, but instead had pirated what they wanted to watch on Disney plus, they would not have signed the contract with Disney plus. That contract forfeited them the right to sue Disney.
