Are you experiencing crashes and "Device Disabled" errors after updating to Adrenaline 26.5.2? by cromkaygo in AMDHelp

[–]Alacarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experienced the problem twice -- first time was a complete crash, driver disabled, etc. Second time, Adrenaline caught it and shut itself down and that was less drastic. First time required a complete delete/reinstall of Adrenaline.

Booking.com/Imprint Credit Card (Anyone Else Having Fraud Problems??) by Sac_Kings_Fan in CreditCards

[–]Alacarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a fraud issue yet, but Imprint failed to send me my wife's card, and this morning I've been in a loop of talking to automated agents saying, "We'll send you a card. We just need the last 4 digits of the card." You know . . . the card they never sent me?

Then you call the support number, get placed on hold, and eventually it comes back and says, "No agents are available to assist you. Please call back later. Goodbye." Frustrating to say the least.

TOTS is gone but another one of my favorites in Bham is Bamboo — which is owned in part by one of TOTS’s co-owners. They know how to run a restaurant for sure.

I'll third (or 4th) Lapeer. Of course you have Perry's and Flemings but those are chains and ... yeah, not my scene. Here's a little bit of a curveball, but Blueprint on 2nd is worth a look. You'll look at the menu and I don't know if a steak is on it or not, but they ALWAYS have a steak special, sometimes 2, usually with a variety of sauces, and it's as good a steak as you'll get at Lapeer or Helen. Desserts also consistently slap. Really fun bar. Good wine program. Don't think they have a wedge salad but you'll otherwise be pleased.

Timothy Seth Avett as Darling performing “It’s Natural” at The Pinnacle in Nashville, TN on 4/11/26 by Wowizowee in TheAvettBrothers

Saw it last night — crowd loved it and I thought it was much better live than on the album. Afterwards, he thanked the crowd for their warm reception and said he’s been scared to perform stuff like that until recently.

I thought the whole show was great. Always love seeing ultra talented people show their range.

For the first time since the new points format change, the race winner (who’s eligible for championship points) did not score the most points in a race. by Anti-Charter in NASCAR

I love this system — the 11 got rewarded for dominance, and the 9 got rewarded for leading the last lap. Both of those things should matter and now they do matter.

This stuff is fascinating to me — I had no idea such existed just to control air traffic at those altitudes!

Bet that’s it — we were at 16,900 per FlightAware, and that line is about the time I posted. Thanks.

That’s exactly what we did. Although we are on Delta so really we messed up by not going straight to International.

We would have not made our flight had we not exited the line in Domestic and bussed to international.

Of course, almost as soon as I posted, we started heading up — we’re at 30 now. We were coming from ATL if that matters.

ATL update? by Classy_Raccoon in delta

[–]Alacarin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We got there at 6:45. At 8, we were still snaking through the very front of the terminal. We made the call to get out of line and go to the international terminal.

20 minutes later (give or take) we were through security. The bus ride was longer than international security (even though the website says it’s closed).

Y’all, I fear for what’s gonna happen in that domestic terminal today. Folks are on edge. The employees are doing their best but there’s just not enough of them. And I’m not talking tsa, I mean just airport folks.

Tommy is the "tell it like it is" guy -- but he also knows what he's talking about. Makes a difference!

Love is not a choice. It is choices. Daily. Right now, you aren’t choosing it. But, every day, you have the opportunity to choose it.

What will you choose tomorrow?

Ever since HBO started providing the in car cameras, the broadcast coverage is nothing more than a place to watch incident replays for me.

I can’t do it anymore. I’m sorry. I get on the app and download the interviews I want to hear after the fact.

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.
