• I had issues with my Dell U2711 not waking up properly after it's put in power-save mode connected via DisplayPort (running Linux/XUbuntu 14.04 - not sure if XOrg/XFCE related or not). I found a tip in forum that disabling DDC/CI helps. And lo and behold, go into Menu->Other Settings -> DDC/CI -> set to [x] Disabled. And magically monitor comes to life.

  tā man deva pulka piena:
  pienu ēdu, pienu dzēru,
  pienā muti nomazgāju."
  
  Nez kas tas par "pulka" pienu. Kautkāds militārs/armijas termins?

• Ēriks>one of the things I worry about is accidentally getting some magnesium into the melt and starting a fire that I cannot easily put out. Magnesium of course does not require air to burn, makes its own heat and is its own fuel.
  Autisma uzbrukums>>I don’t believe Magnesium can burn on its own. It doesn’t require oxygen to burn, it can burn in nitrogen forming the nitride or under water taking the oxygen from the water, but not in a vacuum. If you’re familiar with self-burning magnesium chemistry, I’d love to hear about it.
  Ēriks>>>Good point, I was speaking imprecisely. Under conditions we’d normally find ourselves in on Earth, magnesium can be hard to extinguish once it starts burning.
