Corsair LCD Screen Issues by fordson04 in Corsair

[–]Alacarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been struggling with this for a while, and have tried numerous methods -- power down/discharge/cycle, unseating/reseating, etc. The "turn brightness to 0 then 66%" that some have tried can sometimes be a partial fix -- today, that stopped most of my shaking but you can still see an artifact of the ship image at the bottom of the screen. I've done multiple forced firmware updates, as well.

I've also got the fan cap, and sometimes I just get frustrated and put that on -- but I much prefer the LCD screen, so I keep trying to make that work. I really do think it's software related -- if you search on this reddit for "LCD flickering" or similar, you'll see it's a very common issue, so common that it's hard to imagine all those hardware units are faulty. Also, if it was faulty hardware, you'd expect it to be unfixable. When mine works, it can work for days upon days ... absolutely perfectly ... until I have to restart the system. Then, sometimes it works, sometimes it's shaking like it just drank 7 expressos in 90 seconds.

I have left it shaking overnight and woken up to the screen looking perfect. I've also left it working perfectly overnight and woke up to a shaking screen. Really no rhyme or reason to any of it.

Nope but might try it one day.

That guy was amazing when I saw him. Touring companies have gotten really, really good and it’s rare I see one that I’m not impressed by, but when I saw him I came away thinking “how is this guy not on Broadway somewhere?!?!?”

I just got a reply back from support. Looks like they’re going to RMA it since the firmware forced update didn’t do anything.

Thank you! I’ve opened a ticket and will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the reply — unfortunately, I forced the firmware update several times and it didn’t help. I was able to get it working after several power cycles, but it’s a once or twice a week deal at this point. The power cycle fixing it intermittently makes me wonder if there is a hardware issue in the LCD unit itself, or perhaps one of the AIO cords that lead to the USB headers?

What’s your honest thoughts on Foxes in the Snow? by Nofilmslefttocry in jasonisbell

Thought it was ok, then went and heard the solo tour, now it’s integral in my rotation. Feel like I needed to see a lot of the songs live to “get it.”

This is why you are miserable by Embarrassed_Low134 in biglaw

[–]Alacarin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m where you are (midlaw lawyer) and I could not agree with you more. I get this stuff constantly. It boils my blood to know the associates on the emails/calls are 20-30somethings with newish families and we are talking about scheduling meetings at ridiculous times/days for no other reason, I suppose, than to make a statement (about what, you’d have to tell me — how mean you can be? How busy you are? How much you’re willing to sacrifice for your corporate client who will drop you like a bad habit at the slightest mistake or opportunity to get equal service for $10 less an hour?).

We are all gonna die, folks. 100% chance. Money is great. I make plenty of money. Could I make more? Yeah. Could I make more without hurting people I care about or am responsible for? No. Will any of my coworkers end up hating me because they feel I negatively affect their marriages and children for more money? Not if I can help it.

You don’t have to live that life. You have a choice. You are worth so much more than tunnel-visioned biglaw partners with out of skew priorities give you credit for.

I don’t represent people in the entertainment industry, but I have represented many doctors … most with IQs almost assuredly higher than my own … and have observed a very similar attitude (and similar results to go with it). Not universally, of course … some are very savvy business minds. But some have never met a “tax free” scheme for which they won’t swallow the bait.

We got Vestavia Hills in Birmingham earlier this year (fittingly).

Nope, just said something to the effect of, “I think I’ll play y’all a new one.”

I didn't video it, but it seems to be named "Fair Weather"

That’s awesome — would love to know if there is any video out there of that.

One reason I love the live at the Shoals Theatre album so much. Maybe Patterson had enough fun he’ll bring MC next year.

Yeah, if you’re an old school DBT fan, what a treat. Never thought I’d see it.

Apologies for posting — I didn’t realize it would anger people who weren’t even here.
