- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

Noted. both my monitors are 75hz and capable of variable refresh rate, so in theory they don't need to have different refresh rates for my setup, but I imagine playing games and watching a video might throw a slight wrench in that. Just out of curiosity for my options, would plugging my second monitor directly into my Mother board help mitigate any issues on that front (instead of having both plugged into my GPU)?
it's not a setup issue, it's a hard limit of xorg. maybe having two xservers may help, but then you wouldn't be able to move windows between them. the way multiple monitors are done using x is that they're treated as one continuous screen, but that means it can get a bit wacky because they're not the same.
Ah, makes sense. I kinda figured it wouldn't be that easy to solve, but I had hope that it might have a 'cheap' workaround.
