I purchased Pocket Casts a long while ago and it's been worth the money forever. Now the annoying, obtrusive banner ad has ruined a great app experience. I'm deleting Pocket Casts and switching to AntennaPod (thanks to whoever posted about that!). Hope somebody sees this who can feel ashamed about their decisions!

HP Envy x360 15m-eu0013dx, Windows 11.

My laptop screen broke after a bike wreck, so I'd like to remove it entirely and just use the laptop to drive an external monitor via HDMI. Unfortunately if I disconnect the internal screen from its li'l ribbon cable, it won't POST and I just get the Green Screen of Handshake Problems.

Leaving the monitor connected and setting my Win-P settings to "second screen only" works fine as soon as Windows finishes booting.

I've fiddled around in the BIOS and don't see anywhere that I can specify which monitor to use.

Any suggestions or more information I can provide? Thanks!

r/firefox•

Lately I've been having issues where Firefox (107.0, 64-bit, Windows 10 and also Windows 11 on another device) is hogging a ton of memory and becoming nonresponsive when the computer wakes from sleep. I thought it might be related to some extensions / css customizations I've done, so I restarted in troubleshooting mode (where the problem still occurs) and queried about:performance.

What I think is particularly weird is that the combined memory usage of all the tabs isn't close to the memory usage reported by Windows Task Manager.

Any thoughts on what the issue

r/poker•

My dad wants to be able to play poker on his new computer. Unfortunately, most every program for playing poker is full of spam and malware. Do you have any suggestions for programs (or websites) that aren't terrible?

He mostly wants Texas hold'em but if it's a combo kind of situation that has lots of different styles, so much the better.

EDIT TO ADD: Probably everyone will be happier if it is free and not playing for real money.

Thank you!

r/GooglePixel•

I dropped and broke my screen a while back, and now that I've gotten it replaced, I'm noticing that the very extreme left and right edges of the display are cut off. For instance, if a website has a particularly small scroll bar indicator, I won't be able to see it at all, unless I tilt my phone at a pretty extreme angle and look sort of under the edge.

I can certainly go back to the place that replaced my screen but I wonder if this is a hardware issue or a software issue. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
