You cannot realistically make it impossible to detect that you're running on wine. Wine just implements the Windows ABIs. The actual code running is totally different. Even just reading any of the binary code of literally any function would reveal it's different from the Windows code. How are you going to stop it from doing memory reads on stuff that it needs to be able to read? You can't. You'd need a full hardware emulator for that.

The evince PDF reader ran into this issue back in 2005. It is now rare to find a distributor shipping a version of evince which implements copy restrictions. Xpdf implements copy restrictions unconditionally, but Debian patched that code out in 2002, and that patch has spread to other distributors as well. In general, as one would expect, free PDF readers tend not to implement this behavior. Okular is about the only exception that your editor can find; it's interesting to note that the version of Okular shipped with Fedora Rawhide also implements copy restrictions by default. Perhaps this behavior is result of the relative newness of this application; as it accumulates more users, the pressure for more user-friendly behavior is likely to grow.

Try to fix it.

I'm not a Gnome user but I stopped minimizing my windows years ago. Don't need that if you (a) don't have icons on your desktop and (b) move your windows over to another workspace when stuff gets crowded.

Raymond is so much worse. Since you apparently aren't convinced I pulled some quotes:

CW racism, homophobia, Islamophobia

Black people are stupid and violent:

In the U.S., blacks are 12% of the population but commit 50% of violent crimes; can anyone honestly think this is unconnected to the fact that they average 15 points of IQ lower than the general population? That stupid people are more violent is a fact independent of skin color.

Again:

What's keeping women in general from occupying the vast middle of the programming field is not general intelligence. On the other hand, the average black American has an IQ about 85 and that is pretty much a disqualifier right there. Only the cohort of their bell curve above 3 STDs from median has much hope of matching the capability of the average white programmer.

Police should shoot black men (calls them "males" like they're animals), that's just rational:

Police who react to a random black male behaving suspiciously who might be in the critical age range as though he is an near-imminent lethal threat, are being rational, not racist. They're doing what crime statistics and street-level experience train them to do, and they're right to do it.

Homosexuality and pedophilia are connected:

If the prevalence of homosexuality in the Catholic priesthood is the elephant in the sacristy, the homosexuality/pederasty/pedophilia connection in gay culture is the elephant in the bath-house. No amount of denying it's there is going to make the beast go away.

They hate us for our freedom:

Al-Qaeda would not hate us any less; it is not, at bottom, U.S. policy that enrages them, it is the fact of our wealth and freedom and refusal to submit to the One True Way of Allah.

Muslims are barbarians that need to be civilized by force to prevent the white genocide:

If there's no way short of straight-up imperialism and nation-building all over the Islamic world to prevent a holocaust on American or European soil that would make 9/11 look like a garden party, then that's what we're going to have to do -- civilize the barbarians at the point of a gun.

Nuking civilians is good actually:

The U.S. burned essentially every major Japanese city except Kyoto to the ground with incendiaries during World War Two and then atom-bombed two of them. This seemed to help.

Deliberate cultural genocide is what we need:

How dare I argue that the U.S. has the right to commit deliberate cultural genocide?

There's a big hole in the ground in Manhattan. That's my argument.

Wait do you reply to everyone using the term Zionist with that? Because that's some random tangent if I've ever seen one, triggered by a single word. Good derailing tactic though, you completely changed the subject.

I'm not even sure what your point is. Are you confused about what Zionism is? Because that's funny for a Zionist to be confused about. It means you support the existence of a Jewish-supremacist state, and it's a 19th century nationalist idea from Europe. So whatever you're on about is irrelevant. I'm calling you a Zionist, since you clearly support Israel or you wouldn't be taking the time to spread incorrect bullshit in defense of the IDF here.

Maybe you're confused about my comment. Let me explain. You said:

So the IDF controls the border between Gaza and Egypt? You should let Egypt know their border isn’t sovereign anymore.

Egypt controls Egypt's side of the border. Israel controls the Gaza side, what with them occupying it. Since that should be pretty obvious, it sounds like you think Egypt, in order to be sovereign, needs to control both sides the border, i.e. invade Gaza.

Which is funny to me, because that obviously defeats the whole purpose of a border. So I'm imaging you as a person who thinks the whole point of a border is that both sides should be controlled by the same state, since that's how Israel does it, and you being a Zionist, you think that's the normal way a border works. So "Zionist logic". This is a funny thought, a person so brainwashed they don't understand that borders are not like a checkpoint between Israel and the West Bank. There, you made me explain the joke.

This seems to work with regular Proton these days, it's even SteamDeck verified.

Since that bug seems related to the X server somehow, I wonder if your monitor is showing black or actually off/standby (as in backlight off)?

If it's the backlight, maybe it's related to DPMS (monitor power management), and you can jolt it back to life with something like

xset dpms force on

after waking up. Or maybe disable DPMS completely and see if that changes anything.

It would also be interesting to know if this problem also happens outside of XFCE. If you just use (say) openbox (which I don't think does any power management or DPMS stuff by itself), does that work?

It doesn't if it's there to wage an illegal war.

I already responded to this in a reply to another user:

So it’s perfectly normal to revive a slogan that was last used by fascists? I’m sure the fact that Ukraine also made Bandera a national hero and put up statues of him and named streets in his honor right around the same time that slogan made its comeback is just a coincidence? Totally innocent slogan my ass.

You might be blind in your right eye if you think this isn't some fascist shit. This is like "the swastika is an old Hindu symbol" type defense, only worse because you're ignoring the Hitler portrait right next to it.

Oh it's true!

Further down in that Twitter thread someone posted archive links to some of the actual posts (and not just screenshots), so you can verify this yourself. You can also search archive.ph for "@Kama_Kamilia". For example:

And yes, this is the NAFO founder's Twitter account, as mentioned here in this glowing article about NAFO in Politico:

https://www.politico.eu/article/nafo-doge-shiba-russia-putin-ukraine-twitter-trolling-social-media-meme/

The NAFO summit from July this year was live streamed, you can see him on stage if look for a recording. The Estonian PM joined this event via video call, btw.

Try filing a bug report with your distro or whatever project (wireplumber? alsa?) you think is responsible.
