No. Thinking about the panda is involuntary in that scenario. Typing up and submitting an explicitly unwanted response is not involuntary. It’s a thing a person chooses to do expressly against the wishes of the person making the request.
It doesn’t say “a female behind.” That would be fine. It says “a female’s behind,” using the noun form of female to refer to a woman. Normal people don’t refer to a woman as “a female” outside of technical contexts like medicine or science. In casual speech it comes across as dehumanizing to call a person “a female,” and this is a speech pattern that is primarily used by misogynists, especially the incel variety.
The preferred phrasing would have been “a woman’s behind.”
That said, giving the person a permaban over this seems pretty excessive unless there’s additional context.
I’m one of the few here who seem to understand how people actually communicate in the real world
Nah. People in the real world don’t use the noun phrase “a female” when referring respectfully to women. They say woman, lady, girl, gal, or something along those lines. The only times a woman is called “a female” are in technical contexts or when the speaker is a misogynist.
Look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for Xorg errors.
Check if OpenGL is okay by running
glxinfo(from the packagemesa-utils) and checking in the first few lines for “direct rendering: Yes”.Check if Vulkan is okay by running
vulkaninfo(from the packagevulkan-tools) and seeing… if it throws errors at you, I guess. There are probably some specific things you could look for but I’m not familiar enough with Vulkan yet.You could
sudo dmesgand read through looking for problems, but there might be a lot of noise to sift through. I’d start by piping it throughgrep -i nvidiato look for driver-specific stuff.Might be worth running
nvidia-settingsand poking around to see if anything seems amiss. Not sure what you’d actually be looking for, but yeah.Sometimes switching from
linuxandnvidiatolinux-ltsandnvidia-ltscan help if the problem is in the kernel or driver. Remember to switch both of these at the same time, since drivers need to match the kernel.You could also try switching from the nvidia drivers to nouveau. Might offer temporary relief and help narrow down where the problem is, at the expense of probably worse performance in heavy games. Ought to be fine for 2D gaming and general desktopping.
Trying a different window manager is always an option. Don’t know how much hassle that is when you use a full DE; I’ve always been the “just grab individual lightweight pieces and slap 'em together” sort so I don’t have any real experience with KDE. But yeah. Find out what the right way to change WM is for your system, then try swapping over to Openbox or something minimal like that and see what happens.
Related to WM/DE, it could be an issue with the compositor maybe. Look up whatever KDE’s compositor is and see if you can turn it off and run a different one?
