Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

Enjoy looking at the sticky side of some blue tape.

Still think the slide cover on my laptop is one of the most practical features I've ever seen

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah my corpo laptop actually came with it. It's standard on all our renewed devices now. I was pleasantly surprised. Apparently the CTO deemed it so.

They'd just be looking at the palm rest for me. Laptop is closed and under the monitor stand, having it open just makes Window's show how well it does desktop scaling.

Haha
Drag a window into or out of it
or sometimes even just near it
Then tell me that's a solution

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, my son convinced me to try having one monitor vertical. His (Windows 10) is close to right, but dragging a window across the gap and you have 2 different size windows. Compared to my computer (LMDE) and it is truly scaled correctly, the window is the same size on any monitor and while travelling between them.

Still not sure how I feel about a vertical monitor though, it's great for documentation but just feels so unnatural.

I’ve previously used this wonderful piece of software, which doesn’t really improve that situation much, IIRC, but does make it easy for mouse movement to line up super nicely by using DPI-aware scaling:

Not perfect, but very nice.

I'm more referring to how Windows makes a very jarring experience of resizing windows for different display scaling settings.
