You'll have a phase of disappointment; don't let it faze you.
I'm trying to get over my homophone-phobia.
Goddamnitall, I thought I had a lead on GameMode being the issue, but the lag is back now. Fuck NVIDIA, but this is the best PC I have and it was a hand-me-down so I did not choose it. The games still run perfectly 1 out of 20 times, wtf...
I don't believe so, I do not see the option either.
On further testing, the problem appears to be GameMode-related, disabling that makes Wine programs run without the lag. However, Also, now attempting to run Wine programs in fullscreen (any resolution) causes the whole system to severely lag and it takes a very long time to Alt-Tab out or Ctrl-Alt-Fkey into a tty session.
This is on a Western Digital Black NVMe SSD.

Edit: I forgot that I wanted to clarify that this is not a video playback issue, the lag happens in all Wine windows, even winecfg. I clicked back and forth repeatedly between config tabs and was also able to notice the lag there.
Lutris/Wine: Odd video pause every four seconds
How do I even begin to troubleshoot this?
Steam games work fine. Linux-native games work fine. In Wine games, the game video seems to pause for 1.5s, then plays for 2.5s. Audio is unaffected. It seems like the frames are lagged, not lost; when video resumes, the "missing" frames play back very quickly, like the video is "catching up". This happens even in the games' launcher windows before 3D rendering or GPU load occurs. Mouse pointer does not lag or pause.
This happens in both wine-ge 8.26 and WineHQ Staging 9.22.
The weirdest thing is that without changing any settings, the same games will run fine about 1 out of 20 launches.
Thanks for any input.

My dream machine back then.
It never happened; we jumped from C64 to 386.
Latitudes and then XPS are the business-class, I think. I have a couple XPS Studios that have long outlived their usefulness. Integrated video, that's why they survived the bad BGA era. ;)
I remember reading a Star Trek novel by William Shatner in which there were Borg dogs.
RubberElectrons beat me to it, but EyeMed Vision Care, LensCrafters, Pearle Vision, Sears Optical, Sunglass Hut, and Target Optical are all the same company, Luxottica.

You should have a display enable/disable switch in LMDE's "Display" settings GUI, though it shouldn't be necessary? Please try another (few) cable(s) because they do vary. Anecdote: I've heard of Samsungs being picky like this and only refusing to work with that one device you are trying to use.
Edit: Can your mouse pointer or windows get to the missing screen? Also xrandr -q shows display status.
CompactFlash, too. I 'member looking at them for a Dell PocketPC I found at a garage sale.
Trump has said he is bringing back mental institutions. They don't exist yet, so, concentration camps until then.
I'm not going to a camp or prison for my managed mental illness, so I guess they'll have to kill me and kidnap my children.
Reposting my comment again.
Like the German version of Nazis before them, they aren't coming for their biggest target first. They're coming for their political opposition, the "abortionists", the atheists, the drug users, the mentally ill...

"I’m going to create these wellness farms where they can go to get off of illegal drugs, off of opiates, but also illegal drugs, other psychiatric drugs, if they want to, to get off of SSRIs, to get off of benzos, to get off of Adderall, and to spend time as much time as they need — three or four years if they need it— to learn to get reparented, to reconnect with communities,"
Re-education camps, huh.

Nobara? More like Nobody!
Just felt like posting here since no one else will! Don't tell me to go to Discord... The UI enrages me like no other.
I'm newish, started with Nobara 39, did a fresh install of 40 after upgrade had dependency problems with wine-staging64 and one other (k5s-something? Sorry). I want to like this distro... Some observations:
The live environment is allowed to suspend the PC during the install process!
Discover Software Center seems to be gone and I can't install it; I get a notification: "Plasma Workspace / Could not read file appstream://org.kde.discover.desktop."
There is Nobara Package Manager, a huge list with checkboxes down the left that need to be individually clicked; right-click and Select all doesn't do anything.
I still (sometimes) get Plasma graphical glitches on resuming from suspend. NVIDIA!
My son's ancient PC runs 39 beautifully, but 40 lags every five seconds even just sitting idle at the desktop.
Games are running great and I love the ease of installing Steam and flipping the compatibility switch, and instantly having Proton-GE available.
I wanted to get Sunshine running for Moonlight, but I guess it has major problems with Wayland (not Fedora's/Nobara's fault).
Spectrum Mobile makes offers that they won't honor. Phone trade-ins through Assurant are a bait-and-switch scam. AMA
I sent in two phones for an offered $1600 total promotional bill credits.
One phone rejected, for the reason: "won't power on". I videoed myself opening the box on the returned phone, pressing the power button, and turning the phone on, booting into Pixel setup.
The other, Spectrum is trying to give me $200 credit for.
I spent hours on the phone with support from both of these scam companies. Do not deal with either of them, you have been warned.
GRUB on 32-bit UEFI (Nextbook 2-in-1)
The only distro I can find that successfully configures a functioning bootable GRUB on this (bastard) machine is Nobara, which looks very cool but is way too heavy! Some things are glitchy; attempting tab completion seems to freeze Konsole for ~5 seconds and does not complete the command as expected. We're working with an Intel Atom Z3735F@1.33GHz and 2GB RAM here.
How can a noob figure out what it's doing differently so I can apply that to Linux Mint Debian Edition or Crunchbang Plus Plus?
The weird thing is that once the system is installed, it does not seem to have what I think are the required packages for GRUB to be set up correctly with this type of UEFI.
nextbook@nextbook:~$ sudo grub2-install /dev/mmcblk
grub2-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/i386-efi/modinfo.sh doesn't exist. Please specify --target or --directory.
