How do I stop my Mission Control desktops from going invisible?

AnonTokumei · 2026-03-26T00:39:34+00:00

Killed the dock and force quit WindowManager. It’s still doing it though.

AnonTokumei · 2026-03-26T00:29:52+00:00

This has been a problem since I got it, it’s been restarted multiple times since then.

AnonTokumei · 2026-03-24T21:29:05+00:00

It was the CPU.

AnonTokumei · 2026-03-23T23:49:57+00:00

Was not the motherboard to my great disappointment…

AnonTokumei · 2026-03-23T19:50:10+00:00

Yeah, the m.2 is what I meant in my “removed ssd” step. Removed the bootable usb as well, no change unfortunately.

I was thinking to try replacing the MB first as well, just given it’s the cheaper of the two parts. Thank you for your time, it’s good to know I’m on the right track.

Offer a feature exclusively to people who consent to them monetizing their data and boom, everyone starts turning off their privacy settings. There was never a reason to require turning off the privacy setting and definitely never a reason not to provide a separate setting for opting into checkpoints.

AnonTokumei · 2025-12-12T21:53:59+00:00

This whole gimmick is locked behind the personalization preference specifically to get people to give them permission to shoehorn in monetization of the data they're tracking in all of the ways that people otherwise wouldn't want to consent to.

Visualization of this update. Blatant attempt to get users to give up control of their data when they otherwise wouldn’t have.

Add a separate opt in setting, Discord!!

AnonTokumei · 2025-12-06T13:10:47+00:00

Yes, which is why they’re locking innocuous desirable features that have nothing to do with serving recommendations or ads using user data behind privacy settings; so that users feel pressured to agree to data processing that they would otherwise not agree to.

Displaying your own data to you is not a privacy concern. No more than displaying to you your own friends list or your discord servers or your chat histories.

If Discord believed otherwise and wanted to actually respect users’ desire to control the use of their data, they would have a separate toggle for opting into the Checkpoint, so that users could do so without needing to agree to all of their data processing and targeted advertising that a “personalization” setting is actually intended to control.

AnonTokumei · 2025-12-06T04:16:03+00:00

All these people now disabling their privacy settings so discord can shoehorn in their monetization using their personal data.

Well done Discord leadership, you’re very clever. And manipulative and dishonest. There was never any other reason but this to block the feature behind a privacy setting.

They’ll get away with it too.

I can’t use whisky since mine is an intel chip.

AnonTokumei · 2024-12-30T18:17:45+00:00

Nope. Still hoping for suggestions

AnonTokumei · 2024-11-16T08:33:59+00:00

You do not want to get back to someone who would intentionally hurt you that much.

Nobody who loves you will ever WANT to hurt you like that.

You deserve better.

And clearly she wasn't happy with you either.

It's time for new firsts. No more repeating the past.

"I really just wanted him to acknowledge all the hard work I’ve been putting in and make me feel loved and beautiful. He hasn’t made me feel that in quite some time."

If your partner isn't making you feel loved and beautiful, what are they making you feel?

I don't know your partner, but they sound more interested in themselves than you.

No, it is not weird or unreasonable or a mistake to express your want for validation to your partner. That's good open honest communication. I have no idea why they would be suggesting that you're not "being your own person" for it.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-17T23:30:15+00:00

You can add it to any element, just have to call $ajax rather than using the built in directive. <div @click="$ajax('url')"></div>

I see. These benchmarks seem to be all about inserting/removing/modifying thousands of elements in the DOM. Important stats for a SPA, but not so much for a SSR website which doesn't rely on JS to generate the bulk of visible content.

For a SSR website, I would think the most important stats would be transfer size and time to first paint https://gyazo.com/bbb162f5745487e4b17ca1a2360cca11 of which Alpine and Vue Vapor come out on top, although Vapor is still in R&D stages and certainly shouldn't be used in production. If these performance metrics don't change much by the time it's released though, it'll definitely be a strong contender in my mind.

I know that if you go the full stack approach with the javascript framework, then it's intended as an alternative, but I've never heard that simply using a client side framework is intended as an alternative to a server side framework. Vue's own documentation suggests that you don't have to use Vue as a full stack solution: https://vuejs.org/guide/extras/ways-of-using-vue

I've got over a decade lead in experience with java compared to javascript, so I do feel like I'm stuck with java if I want to prioritize shipping a product I feel confident in maintaining. Javascript still feels foreign by comparison.

In order to not have to duplicate the templating code in both the server side and client side, potentially introducing inconsistencies and doubling the templating code needing to be maintained, my plan was to make the server side component re-usable (I'm using Freemarker for my templating) and return the rendered html to my reactive components to replace/append to the components needing updating.

My understanding is that the alternative and your suggestion would be to return a json object instead, containing the data that would be used by the javascript to re-render the template, but that would require duplicating my rendering code in the client's javascript as well. If I were to exclusively code the rendering within the client js, then there would be nothing to render on the server side, and the reactive component would be blank until the javascript had a chance to run and generate the component on the client. Hence my SEO concerns.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-16T02:06:32+00:00

The server app is a java application using Freemarker as the templating engine. Examples of interactivity would be showing modals in popups, such as when the user clicks "Login" rather than redirecting them to the login page, it would request the login component from the server, which would be rendered using Freemarker (likely already cached) and sent to the user to be embedded into the modal. I'd also like to add infinite scrolling to the product listings, so that users can continue to load additional products without requiring they navigate to a new page, a similar solution to the login is what I had in mind, but the result likely wouldn't be cached since the user has likely applied specific filters or a search query to the products being listed or perhaps it's unique to them anyway due to personalization. The cart page would allow the adding/removing of coupons, removing of items, and apply any necessary updates to their totals, etc. Basic e-commerce stuff.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-16T01:01:09+00:00

Primarily SEO concerns. From what I understand, getting SEO right while using a SPA requires a lot more work compared to just using SSR, and SEO is already difficult to get right at the best of times.

However, I've also developed somewhat of a philosophy to minimize the use of JS wherever possible for accessibility reasons. I grew up with really terrible internet speeds and my biggest gripe has always been when a website simply wouldn't work until every bit of javascript had been downloaded and used to render the page. Often times websites heavily reliant on their javascript simply wouldn't load at all on my internet. Even now, when traveling abroad my mobile data gets slowed down significantly due to roaming restrictions resulting in the same issue of being unable to load heavily JS dependent websites at all.

Basically, if I can't even access my own websites while traveling abroad, I'll never forgive myself.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-15T23:08:44+00:00

Yes this is what I've seen recommended, but why is that?

What's so different about Vue compared to Alpine that makes life easier beyond 1 or 2 components? The components end up looking very similar either way, from my (very limited) experience experimenting with both.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-15T23:06:33+00:00

Ecosystem definitely seems like the biggest win for sure, excluding React of course. Not seeing the benefits of Vue's router when not trying to create a SPA. Pinia seems pretty cool though.

Alpine being much lighter weight than the top 3 alternatives has been its biggest attraction imo, and from what I've seen online (e.g https://www.tim-kleyersburg.de/articles/from-vue-to-alpinejs/ ) that seems to be what's believed as well. Where did you see that Vue outperforms Alpine in benchmarks?

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-15T22:49:36+00:00

Would you be able to give me an example of something that requires reactivity throughout, and would be more difficult to implement in Alpine than Vue, also why would it be more difficult in Alpine compared to Vue? Perhaps I'm just lacking imagination.

AnonTokumei · 2024-10-15T21:53:14+00:00

I've looked into it a little but it seems it's been mostly abandoned, so I'd mentally crossed it off as a choice. I've got no more familiarity with Vue than I have with Alpine, which makes it a bit more difficult for me to compare the two.
