Thats what I thought as well, but TLS as a term felt a bit too technical for the meme format, which is why I suggested XOR.

Telnet IS TCP. “Telnet wrapped in a thin layer of XOR” might fit better?
there’s some resource that says ‘change this part to do x’.
Arguably, this is just a different type of script.
I think the real separation is that while you might seek out a few different resources, or try a few alternatives to solve a problem, a “script-kiddie” is likely stuck if the first result in Google doesn’t solve the problem immediately.
For my definition of script-kiddie, its not that they won’t change something, they by definition cannot because they dont understand it.
We may have different definitions here, but that is the one I am familiar with.
Script-kiddie is a derogatory term for a computer user who can’t read or edit the code. Scripts might be useful to us, but they may as well be opaque to a script-kiddie.

I haven’t needed to mess with xorg files in quite some time, the default auto-configuration tends to just work.
None of those links seem to be relevant, I think I need to record a video to fully show what is happening. I think I did try replicating it with i3, which just worked properly, so its probably gnome/mutter?
My monitors are intentionally misaligned, and they do run different refresh rates. It is a fresh install of Arch, and everything was up to date as of the post. Switching to wayland fixed it, but wayland broke video playback, so that less than ideal. I might just live with the weird scrolling desktop, it could almost be a feature if it wasn’t so glitchy.
It all used to work in the past, misalignment and all, but there seems to be a regression somewhere.
RE: chatgpt: I appreciate that your trying to help, but I don’t think chatgpt is very helpful here. It seems to just be very generic advice, and I am more interested in hearing if others are affected or if its just me.
I think its a default gnome background, but definitely an interesting keyboard. Id like to think that pressing the “code” key just randomly generates code for you, like copilot, but dumber :D
Update: With some difficulty, switching to Wayland fixes it. I guess another side effect of Xorg slow death spiral?
Aside from that, I could have sworn enabling Wayland on nVidia was a lot easier in the past, seems to have regressed. Not super surprising though.
