Not holding the WAN Show this week is the right call... disappointing for us, but the right call, regardless.

Of-course that behavior is unacceptable, ESPECIALLY in the workplace... but it being unacceptable doesn't mean it's not caused by poor understanding of boundaries. I'd say most people who are described as "creepy" are described as such because they don't understand boundaries... but that doesn't mean them or their actions are innocent. Spying on or robbing someone are also transgressions of boundaries. I used that example because some people (especially in the tech space) do grossly misunderstand what IS flirting and what ISN'T flirting. And even if it is flirting, how fast romantic relationships can healthily develop. "Don't touch someone's private areas of you haven't held their hand" is a great example of a rule-of-thumb regarding boundaries.

I feel like lots of folks are talking past each other here on the "Where is the line" issue... Civil communication is all about setting boundaries with other people, and then reading their boundaries. It's often done implicitly, not explicitly. No one is perfect at setting/reading other's boundaries. I think the nuance that boundaries are set by one person and read by another is being missed in this thread. Boundaries can be set/communicated improperly, and boundaries can be read/checked improperly. Half the people in this topic are saying "If you're bad at reading boundaries, don't push boundaries!" while the other half is saying "If someone sets bad boundaries, I have no way of knowing what is and isn't appropriate!" ...and both sides are right! Maddison could have been bad at setting boundaries, and/or others at LMG could have been bad at reading boundaries. To provide two examples: A) If you make a dirty joke towards someone when you aren't comfortable with people making dirty jokes towards yourself, you're bad at setting boundaries. B) If you see a person makes sexual jokes, and you therefore think it's okay to touch them sexually, you're bad at reading boundaries.

Hey there, hoping someone here has an idea as to how I can fix this. Here's my current setup/situation: I have a 3 monitor setup: one Acer Predator X34 GS (1440p Ultrawide/180fps) and two old 900p/60fps cheap-o Acer monitors I bought almost a decade ago (both are model no "S201 HL", if that helps). The Predator I only bought a few days ago and is of-course my main monitor and the two cheap-os are just for Discord/Youtube/etc while doing something else on my main screen. When I got my Predator I was upgrading from an older LG Ultrawide which could go up to 75fps, but I just ran it at 60fps. When I had that monitor, I ran all 3 monitors off of my GTX1080 and they all worked fine. Once I got the Predator, I decided to move the two cheap-os onto my iGPU (Intel i7-7700k) so they could run at 60fps while my Predator could use G-Sync and run at whatever frame rate my GTX1080 could handle (since I know you're not supposed to run multiple screens with varying refresh rates off the same GPU). Here's my problem: When I plug my secondary monitors into my Mobo (ASUS Prime Z270-A), one of the monitors is recognized and works perfectly fine (my leftmost one), and the other (my rightmost one) does not. It says it has "No Signal" and when I tell Windows or the Intel Graphics Command Center to detect monitors, it says there are none left to detect. Both monitors are using DVI cables. One monitor is plugged directly into a DVI port, and the other is plugged into a DVI to DP adapter which is plugged into a DP port. I've flipped which monitor is plugged into which port, and the leftmost monitor always works, while the rightmost monitor always doesn't. I've done the usual: I've plugged the undetectable monitor back into my GPU to make sure it still works (it does), I've restarted my computer, I've tried to force Windows to detect the monitor in display settings, I've uninstalled/reinstalled the Intel Display adapter from Device Manager, and I've tired rolling back to an old version. I'm honestly not sure what to try next. It's not a bad cable, it's not an issue with the mobo port, it's not that the monitor itself is faulty, it has to be some disagreement between that individual monitor and the iGPU. The fact that these two monitors should be identical is what confounds me. TL;DR: 3 Monitors. 2 are the same and cheap and plugged into the iGPU, one is expensive and plugged into the GPU. I did this so they could run at different refresh rates. One of the cheap monitors isn't detected by the iGPU matter what I do. Even though the monitor and all the compatible iGPU ports are confirmed to work on their own, that one monitor and the iGPU won't work together.

Hey, All. Bought an LTX 2019 ticket earlier on when they first went on sale, but now I'm unable to go. I know it's very last-minute. It's a ticket with the merch pass and BYOC. Willing to sell it at-price if that's cool, or have it refunded so my spot could be sold to someone else instead. Would hate for it to go to waste. Thanks!

It'll be a great Media PC, Steaming Box and TV Gaming box!
