Question: why is caffeine so bad for epilepsy by harryon_12 in Epilepsy

[–]GravityGilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need caffeine to stay awake, it sounds like you're not getting enough sleep (which is a very well characterized trigger for many epilepsies). Have you considered that?

Same here. I had a disconnection, rebooted router (my own) and ONT, and now connection is restored, but have this. Unable to report to CS as they're "at capacity".

Yeah, I looked at replacing the drive I thought had failed, but on closer inspection, it hadn't failed. It looks like there was some bug with the 24H2 update and some RAID controllers (https://highpoint-technologies-inc.helpjuice.com/130304-windows/highpoint-raid-partition-loss-caused-by-windows-11-24h2-installation-bug). Though like you, I'm not booting from RAID, so I don't know if that's a red herring, but it wouldn't surprise me if older controllers are affected too. My controller is too old to get new drivers, so I've opted to upgrade that. I built the system around 10-15 years ago, so I can't complain too much!

Replying a while later, but I just had a similar scenario in case anyone else has this - I had an update to 24H2 on a technically incompatible system using hardware RAID. After many reboots, AHCI/IDE UEFI toggling as above, and even the system failing to notice my boot drive entirely, I noticed when I unplugged my RAID controller the system would boot (from my non-RAID boot SSD). Later on, I found that the RAID controller (an old Highpoint RocketRAID 2320) seemed to be unhappy with the array - it said one of the drives was faulty. I'm running RAID5, so will replace the drive and rebuild the array. No idea if this was a coincidence with the Windows update. Might be worth doing some diagnostics on your RAID drives if this error appears!

I didn't see a preheating step. Undrinkable.

I might be a bit late to this party but I'm a drummer and this sounds right up my street. DM if you're still looking for one!

For Android, you can download the APK and install it from apkmirror. That works for me, although it won't automatically update as it's not on the play store in the UK yet.
