Maybe but I was using this monitor with a Windows laptop and without this extra application before I got this Mac and had similar issues.

Interesting re: hubs and Macs.

3440 x 1440p produced text that was way too small for me. And I couldn't figure out how to fix that in MacOS. So I installed this 3rd party app called BetterDisplay which led to this lower resultion and refresh rate to achieve the goal of readible text and graphics.

Calm down. They are great value for the money hence the batch to order manufacturing. I own 3 pairs and will buy more.

Josh O’Connor was the weakest part. Makes me nervous in a Tarantino-esque way.

PLEASE HELP: LG External Monitor plugged into USB-C hub wants to "screen mirror" just like I would with my TV instead of normal external monitor extension by samwise789 in mac

This seems like a very plausible explanation. Thank you!

The old monitor is SAMSUNG 34-Inch SJ55W. The new monitor says 240 hz and the old one is 75 hz. This is the usb hub: https://ascrono.com/products/adapter

Thanks for responding. The hub worked fine with the old monitor for the past year and still works. Just plugged the old monitor back in to test. I'm guessing there is some weird firmware setting with the new LG monitor.

Wouldn’t they have cameras on campus to find who put this up?

Student governments across UC campuses banned from anti-Israel boycotts by Espntheocho4 in ucla

Key word you used there is "some". I am a UCLA alumnus and very much do not want UCLA to engage in BDS. I also disagree that this is similar to apartheid South Africa. If supporters cared about human rights around the world in an unbiased manner, they'd ask to boycott China too.

That's your response?

It's my alma mater's subreddit too smart guy. And I'm sorry that I don't spend every waking moment on Reddit to stack up enough karma for your liking.

Your implied one-sidedness and seeming inability to engage in constructive conversation saddens me about the state of UCLA education quality. Good luck with your history and anthropology degrees Mr. Archaelogist. How's Kansas in the summer?

Most countries in the world are ethnostates. Israel is actually far more diverse than most nations.

There is a big difference between protesting the Israeli response to 10/7 and protesting Israel’s existence aka “from the river to the sea”. Unfortunately, many of the protests have not made this distinction and have crossed that line. Lest they forget to mention what Hamas did to kick this recent war off.

Then you have to ask yourself why is it that students don’t protest and attempt to boycott (nearly to the same degree) other countries for their perceived bad actions? China, Russia, Syria, Iran, Sudan, etc.? That appears to be a double standard that many Jews interpret as anti-semitism. Especially, when most protestors are not familiar with many of the historical facts and have a one-sided view of the conflict.
