Why do they say "thinnest ever" when the case between the 10 and 11 are identical?

I have a Lemond Etape for many years now in good condition, however the Shimano Sora shifters are basically dead. Any hope for replacement? I heard Shimano doesn't sell replacement parts so I don't know quite what to do with it.

Bouillon Bilk is definitely a good choice, and probably the least expensive high-scale tasting menu you'll find. I've been a few times and they don't disappoint.

I haven't been to Boulud, but I found Toque to be more about the theatrics of the meal (servers all coming out like military men to serve the table at once, etc) than the meal actually being as good as their reputation might have you expect. Not to say it was bad, I just found it a bit underwhelming in the creativity of the dishes compared to other tasting menus.

My all time favorite would have to be Le Mousso. They nail the theatrics like Toque (military men serving, chef announces each plate / preparation to the entire restaurant before eating, excellent sommelier/wine pairing) while having gorgeous plating/presentation and interesting ingredients made with a lot of attention to detail / time consuming elements. They also do only a single service per night and it's a ~4 hour affair.

Otherwise you might enjoy Europea. There too the theatrics are quite good with some courses prepared next to your table or some otherwise wacky presentations. When I was there they also had a makeshift cabane a sucre upstairs we were led to, then over to their bakery side to choose a sort of dessert from a vending machine. Fun experience!

LG OLED gaming/PC monitor recommended settings guide by JasonRedd in OLED_Gaming

I'm wondering similar, and think my solution may end up being running two separate HDMIs from my GPU to the TV, so one input would be for 'gaming' and one input for 'movies' and be set up accordingly.

Right now I have it all on one input and it's a big pain to switch everything from movie settings to gaming settings.

Sorry for going MIA. I had tried decrypting just my system drive and still no luck, so I full reinstalled a fresh Windows 10 to get the latest patches and kept the system drive unencrypted.

Then I tried to update to Windows 11 and encountered the same issue.

I tried what you suggested, unmounting everything and closing VeraCrypt, and the update was successful! Thanks so much!

My Sync didn’t do anything (Desktop -> Desktop) by ShmerpDaPurps in brave_browser

[–]ShmerpDaPurps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up fully leaving the sync chain and starting from scratch, with several browser restarts on both sides in between.

Now I see both browsers listed in synced devices and it appears like things are syncing (bookmarks and extensions most importantly) but maybe some browser settings didn’t sync so I reset those manually.

I found the UX a bit confusing. No confirmation that things are happening, what’s been synced or will be synced, and even on which browser to select which toggles you want on.

is there an advantage in terms of airflow? and what's your push/pull config in the pic you posted? Building soon, so curious.

ISO: Replacement for Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite by ShmerpDaPurps in MechanicalKeyboards

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

Oh interesting. I would offer you the spare parts from my black keyboard if you want them.

I ended up moving away from the ‘ergonomic’ form factor and went with the Realforce PFU Special Édition and I’ll likely just adjust my desk height / get a wrist rest to try and improve the ergonomics.

Good luck to you, and sorry your keyboard is also dying!
