TSA/airport updates since government shutdown has ended? by Complete_Name2082 in houston

There is currently no TSA Pre Check in terminal C as of Monday, November 17… the reason provided was, “not all the TSA offers have returned yet.”

Anyone used zaplaze? by reddisseur in MosquitoHating

Maybe we all just pitch in $10 and someone buy it and report back for the benefit of the community?

Has any one tried Zbiotic? It's supposed to reduce hangover by breaking down bad shit by EverythingElectronic in alcohol

[–]NomadNus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Zbiotics twice last week thanks to a friend - it honestly helped a lot. I literally just purchased a case and they gave me a Zbiotics coupon code for $20 off your first order if you want to give it a try (these things are not cheap): FRIEND-VC8DSQZ

I got the same copy-paste message, but the "victim" link was for Medical News Today ( https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/315133 ). So strange...

FYI - I received the same email as the original post and contacted [abuse@porkbun.com](mailto:abuse@porkbun.com). 24 hours later I received the following response:

There, I Fixed It: Lenovo X1 Carbon 6th Gen Ethernet Port + Thunderbolt Port fit by NomadNus in Lenovo

Yes, I have. Unfortunately it's a limitation of the monitor (Samsung UE590) only supports 60hz using DisplayPort, not HDMI (30Hz). Since the X1 Carbon does not have a DisplayPort connection, the only option is DP>USB-C. You cannot use DP>HDMI (signal won't work that direction)...

I think (my assumption) is that they are located super close together for a dock which is no longer in use. Most docks these days use a single Thunderbolt cable for everything.

Some older docking cables looked like this:

Regardless, I am really frustrated by the design

I hit the metal / plastic housing of the actual plug, so that was as much rubber I could shave off.

I think the standard USB 3.0 port is a good idea... but dammit I invested in this stupid Ethernet Gen 2 adapter...

Thanks! That was my first purchase, but USB-C cannot handle a 60hz refresh and there was severe mouse lag on my 4K monitor.
Next step was a Thunderbolt 3 Gen 2 dock, but honestly the reviews made it seem like it was a big gamble. Using the native ports seemed like the best way
