Tried converting a story from TIFU to greentext because I'm bored at work.
I saved a Gimp Template while working on it: https://files.catbox.moe/ipnjzk.xcf

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Me plugging my monitor into my mobo instead of my graphics card for three years. I thought I had just gotten reeeeally unlucky in the silicon lottery.
Or getting a high refresh rate monitor and not changing the refresh rate in your os.
Afaik fullscreen should bypass that one.
Last time I did that I just didn't get any output to the monitor, isn't that how it's supposed to work?
one time i was testing something with the monitor in the motherboard, which worked fine, and then i put the gpu in the motherboard but forgot to plug the monitor in the gpu, and it showed a black screen.
there might be systems where you can plug both a gpu and the igpu into the monitor and it'll use one for most things and the other for games and stuff (i dont remember what that is called), but i have only ever seen that in laptops so idk
If your cpu doesn't have integrated graphics yeah.
Hmmm, maybe that's what happened, but I'm pretty sure I was getting output without the GPU plugged in, but that was a long time ago
In my computer once I installed my graphics card the integrated gpu was disabled, but there was a BIOS setting to keep both enabled
Oh that would make sense!
Massively depends on the system.
if you get a F series CPU with no igpu then you will likely get no output.
