  1. I have a monitor above my primary monitor. The mouse used to "stick" and get "stuck" before going up to the top monitor. I would need to get some momentum to get the courser to it. I swapped out one of my lower monitors (left) and now that left monitor is sticking, but not my primary monitor. I keep dragging around icons on my taskbar when trying to change tabs. How do I reimplement this?
  2. Hello, I understand that Intel chips ending in F mean the CPU does not have graphics capabilities. If I have a GPU (1660 TI) with 3 display outputs, and use a USB to HDMI adapter to run a 4th monitor, would that work with i5-9400F chip? If not, would it work with the i5-9400? I am assuming a USB adapter does not use the GPU to drive it, and instead relies on integrated graphics. I used to run 4 monitors on my system with a 650 and a duel core pentium using extra adapters. Thanks! ps. I understand using a USB adapter for another display is not ideal, its just to throw some background youtube on.
  3. So, my understanding is that SSL is old, insecure, and should not be used. TLS 1.3 is what should be used. However, in doing some reading from recent reputable sources, they talk about SSL as if that is what you should be using. I also read something that made it seem like only SSL can provide that secure portion of HTTPS. Is that correct? I also read something that made me think that SSL could also be a "catch all" term and that TLS can be used to secure a SSL certificate. Can someone clear this up for me?
  4. So, root is another account, but other user accounts can have access to it; which is why it wants my user account password? What if I don't want my main user account to have that access? I just want root to have root access. I would have to remove myself from to sudoers group correct? If I understand this right; being apart of the sudoers group gives you access to the root user when using the sudo command. I am still running that command as root right? Or is it me with "elevated privilege mode" turned on? Then anyone apart of the sudoers group can run commands as root. Doing something directly as root; like su root does work with the actual root password, and not my user account password (I am duel booting, not running my box as a server or something so its not really practical for me to SSH into it). Do I have all that right? Also, thanks for all the replies, I had had to keep changing what I was writing based upon new posts!
  5. Hello everyone. I am trying to understand how exactly account permissions work in relation to the root user and the sudo command. I had thought that using the sudo command would elevate you to the root user. However, using the root password that I setup when installing does not work. It accepts my user account password. My account should be a stander user. It should not be able to run elevated commands right? So why does that password work and the root password I set during setup not work? Furthermore, I also tested this by opening a root terminal. Same thing: root password does not work, but my stander user account does. I am getting confused looking into this myself. Is this normal behavior? If so, then why? Does sudo actually run a command as root? Does my user account have some elevated privilege? When does the root password that I set come into play? I am currently running off ParrotOS 4.10 with XFCE; but from what I understand this does not have to do with my specific distro. Thanks!
  6. I would agree with Razer's support. I have had some trouble with them. I ended not buying there stuff anymore.
  7. If you want 2 computer running win 10 at same time, you will need 2 copies, one per laptop. If you are not going to use the old machine, you should be able to use the same product key to active it as long as it is not "active" on the old machine.
  8. I think that the projector is very interesting, it looks good, seems like it is a plug and play experience. It looks like its resolution is really good, it looks very portable and light, the mirror looks like it adds performance.
