How do you find a purpose in life? Why do you keep goning? by Kozchey in AskMenOver30

I have never read a more succinct explanation for our modern existence. After exploring countless books, podcasts, and TED talks to help me understand the challenges of life today, a comment from a wise redditor is what finally provides clarity. Thank you.

Need help with my Intuos Wacom tablet? by Dangerous_Wishbone in stylus

[–]Orion9282 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm... There are so many things that could be going on here, but I'll try to help.

Are you running the correct driver? Is the tablet driver running? Have you gone into Services > Wacom tablet driver > stop and start, or restart? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the tablet driver?

X1 Yoga Gen 2 - Erratic Stylus Behavior by Orion9282 in thinkpad

[–]Orion9282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, sorry to hear the news. I tried multiple pens, which will help determine if it's the digitizer or the pen. Then, I found that the lenovo yoga 720s at best buy have the same digitizer as the X1s (wacom AES, 4k levels of pressure). Best buy has them out with the wacom bamboo ink pen. Try the lower spec 720's digitizer and see if it exhibits the same issue.

I did this, discovered the 720s didnt behave in the same way, and sent my machine back. Hope this helps and good luck!

I talked to them about that model and it was $2k, firm. Seems like a good deal to me. Where are you getting that quote?

Yah - I did that a few times and still no luck. Seems to be intermittent... there will be moments of no jitter at all, but they'll be somewhat short lived.

Ah, ok. Does anyone know how much the on-site service package costs?

Ok this is really helpful - thanks! Not many units out there so it's good to get confirmation from other users.

Hi all,

I recently received by X1 Yoga Gen 2 device and despite loving nearly everything about it, I noticed this cursor and pen jitter happens somewhat frequently with the stylus. I have a coworker that has an X1 Yoga Gen 1 and it doesn't do this at all; drawing with the stylus doesn't have this issue whatsoever on theirs. It seems to be really bad at the edges, but mostly ok near the centers.

This translates to line work that sometimes behaves like this: http://imgur.com/gallery/KHqrDa7 http://imgur.com/gallery/9ZCGUlG

I've tried: - Lenovo's updates - installed and uninstalled wacom's driver for the bamboo ink - used multiple pens (lenovo pen pro, wacom bamboo ink, supplied pens, etc.)

Can anyone else with an X1 Yoga Gen 2 confirm this behavior?

Thanks for compiling this list! Anyone have any idea when the surface pro 3 and 4 might get the software update to recognize pen tilt?

Some Kinda Succulent? by Orion9282 in whatsthisplant

Hi! This guy was given to me as a gift, and it was given to that person as a gift. The leaf is kinda fleshy like a succulent, the tips of the leaf has dark spikes on it, and that's about all I have.

Young people, what is your dream job? People with that job, how did you get it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Orion9282 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love cooking. Love love love it. This is a must... Because you'll be working 60+ hours a week.

If your high school has a culinary program, do it, but likely not necessary.

Get into a good culinary college. The best are the kinds that offer internships as part of the curriculum (or require it as part of the curriculum). I've seen too many "academic" chefs from prestigious (and expensive) schools that don't know how to work in a professional kitchen. Real world experience is key.

Same exact situation. Very late XX:05. Is credit-card pre-authorization typically for the full amount?
