I've had VMs do this if not enough vram were allocated.

Since this is running on metal, I'd say check BIOS settings to see if you can dedicate additional memory to video/GPU. This is a pretty common feature for laptops and desktops with integrated graphics.

Following that, see if there may be a better non-free driver for your graphics. I'd recommend getting lspci output if you don't know what chipset it is. What model is the laptop?

What you're explaining re: partial reboot sounds like your window/display manager crashing.

We've been getting tons of rain here, but we are still in an outdoor water ban.

Between 8-5, no lawn watering (except golf courses and businesses), no washing your car (except at a car wash), no watering your ornamental plants (except for farms and garden stores). No filling your pool (even a kiddie pool) or running through the sprinkler (except at the water park).

It's not because of drought, but because one of our water sources is offline due to elevated PFAS, so they are blending water from other reservoirs, and those sources combined can't make up the extra demand.

And also protecting businesses by making sure we can't wash our own cars or lollygag through our own sprinklers. Gotta pay for that privilege.

We have to pay...for the privilege...of lollygagging through our sprinklers.

I get the lawn part. I hate lawns. But my yard is also a barren mud pit. I gotta put something down. Trying for mostly clover and other plants that don't need a ton of water, but they still need to stay moist to germinate and start off, and that's real tough to do if you can't water it during the hottest parts of the day. I don't really care what grows as long as it holds the dirt together and it's comfortable to walk on barefoot.

Detroit failed because of automation and off-shoring. Things that could have been repaired or prevented politically, sure. But not directly caused by policies based in bigotry and ignorance.

If any correlation can be made, it's from white-flight. Which would be caused by Detroit's massive loss of jobs and Florida's massive loss of land. But white flight, imo, is the reaction, not the catalyst, of its downfall.

History has its eyes on them.

Florida woke and brown? Half the state literally needs to take a nap, and the only brown is in their Depends.

Pet peeve #209: implying DFW has a bigger furry scene than Austin. For some reason I doubt that.

He's in the middle of a rosary. His priests advised him not to.

You mean to tell me, three days a week, they have to:

• wake up extra hours early
• pack a lunch or plan to pay for one
• put on hard pants
• drive their own vehicle in traffic, with their own gas and wear/tear
• pay for their own parking.
• do the exact same work in their designated space
• drive back home in traffic 9 hours later

All for the same pay and several hours away from my family, home, or bed?

No fucking thanks.

Going remote was the best fucking raise I ever got, and it didn't cost them a dime.

The gays need to go Susan G. Komen on the rainbow flag. Trademark it and sue the hell out of anyone that doesn't "lease the rights to display the flag outside of a place of business".

You think those preppers were just storing water bottles and bullets?

Nah man. They gotta be self sufficient. Of course they are stocking chicken chokers, noodle floggers, and meat beaters.

You know what the world needs? Surge pricing on water.
