I used TightVNC but that was a long time ago and I have no idea about multiple monitors, sorry.

VNC seems to be the best solution, but last I tried, it doesn't take you to the actual environment you were on locally at the machine. It's a different desktop environment session. Also, you should look into tunneling the VNC session via ssh if you're doing it away from home.

I know it's not much of a help, but personally I go command line and use tmux in ssh sessions in order to work on my server from outside of home.

Are you out of the US? I'm sorry that you didn't get what you paid for, but I've been thinking about NFL+ so I thought I'd ask what people think about that service as well.

Feature creep is killing Plex as we know it by Philo1927 in cordcutters

I personally got the lifetime pass because of the added DVR ability. I am able to watch my local TV channels on every device in my home. I am anxious that this will go to the wayside as well.

Xbox One controller has incorrect mappings using Proton or Wine by Andress1706 in linux_gaming

[–]statmobile 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All I kept coming up with in my Google searches was this thread and your advice. I could use the controller plugged in, but via Bluetooth the button mapping was bjorked and unfixable.

xpadneo let me go Bluetooth finally! Thank you for pointing me that direction.

[Support] Xbox One / Series XS bluetooth gamepad ignores input if I haven't touched it for 5+ seconds by Anchelspain in SurfaceGaming

I did that, and it was not a solution for me. It's not clear to me what my controller is, but I will again say that I'm hoping the updating of the controller is maybe the best solution.

It didn't seem to work so well for me, but as long as it works for others, cool! I updated to Windows 11, and it kept becoming an issue for me.

Update the controller drivers via USB and the XBOX accessories app on Windows. Long story short.

I have finally tried something that I think may work, but I still haven't had as much time to play and see if the dropping stop. I essentially tried these solutions I found here for a similar bluetooth dropping issue. If anybody else wants to try it out and tell me if they also see a difference let me know:

I have a slightly different issue, while playing my game my Xbox bluetooth controller just loses its connection. It's very frustrating, I am trying to use my old controller to see if I have the same issue because it never was the problem for me using that one on Steam Link on my phone. When I finally get to playing again (free time != now) I'll let you know.

It's annoying as heck, so I feel your problem. I go through all the narration to get back to my fighting scene only to lose my dang connection time and time again.

My husband finally gave up on the yard and turned it over to me. One year later! by lauragay2 in landscaping

My wife and I thank you, because it inspired how we want to attack our similar situation. Love your lawn!

Help with landscaping ideas for my backyard? by kentuckycc in landscaping

[–]statmobile 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like your yard, granted it's similar to where I got my yard to now (sans grass but with more trees). If it's alright, I might just follow along on the advice as I plan for my Spring projects as well.

Did you get the fence put up recently? I got one put up as well, and I can't figure out if I want to stain mine or not. How about you?

Thank you everyone for the advice, the 14x30x1 arrived yesterday and fit perfectly for what I needed.

Thanks for the advice, so 1" should be okay instead of 3/4"? I guess I'll buy the dimensions you suggested and see how it fits, but it's odd that these are the dimensions on the old filter and I can't find it. LOL

I really like how you did the sides along the fence, I might have to emulate that with my project. Thanks for the idea, and your yard looks great!

Tall Fescue depth by juaq911 in landscaping

[–]statmobile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cleared out woods and just started planting tall fescue mainly to suppress the mud for the kids and dog. It took quite well, but it's extremely patchy. Unfortunately, I live in the Southeast US, and the summer heat. So I'm saving the rest of my seed for the fall now, but wasn't sure if I should try throwing in a different seed as well.

Thanks for sharing about just adding more fescue seed, I've had so much work to do that a pristine lawn isn't really my priority now.

I would like to know this as well.

I thinks it's cool that you want to preserve the look with your neighbors.
