Imagine getting told by a couples therapist that they can’t see your relationship working out… And then you go on a big rant saying how you should still be together?

Honestly, if someone has to go to couples therapy, they’re already at a point where their judgement is written off.

At least that’s what I aim for in Civ VI.
No idea about you

In this case, you might want to ignore all messages with this pattern.

Perhaps look into other messages

LMDE

Oops! I thought it was some obscure DE.

Considering your points, it seems to be most probably some configuration issue.
Might even be that some of the automated monitor/display configuration tools (might be some GUI settings thing) wonked out and reconfigured something.

If your system has some shortcut combination for selecting external monitor/connected projector/mirror screen, perhaps you can try that.

Also, since you mentioned xrandr, I would assume X Session. You can also use xrandr to check and set the monitor configuration. Not just whether it is connected, but also location (left/right/up/down) and screen resolution of each display separately. Perhaps trying those could tell you what is happening.

enought military funding

as much as can keep you more powerful than the rest of the competition combined.

Pretty simple actually.
Just make sure you don’t have any resource worth anything in the international market.

1. Let stuff like petroleum, Lithium, Uranium and other such thingies be sold to the first bidder.
2. Have your soil be nuclear contaminated, down to the bedrock, so nobody wants your land.

• Also, import all nuclear waste from other countries

3. Have a population that looks as ugly as possible, so noone will want to rape your people.

• Should be easier considering point 2
• Something like leprosy in the genitals would help too.

4. Be absolutely full of population, such that the place is a cesspool.

Hey, I said it’d be simple, not that it would be easy or even humanly possible.

This is interesting.
What is the requirement for not using Linux directly on hardware for music?

1. Any recent software updates that you might find relevant?

• It would be good to know which distro you use
• “Samsung commercial” would make me believe it doesn’t get automatic updates, but just in case, that is also a factor.

2. Does the TV work with other input sources on the same port?
3. Reading “Samsung”, I would assume it has multiple input ports. What was the result with other ports.

Interesting case for a KWin plugin/addon

Welp!
No Linux for me I guess.
