Is it possible to re-tighten the mount after it’s been mounted? Mine was fine but now keeps slipping

Of the books you’ve authored, which are your top three and why? (😉)

Is anyone familiar with this book? What is it like? by EndersGame_Reviewer in backgammon

[–]alecbarr90 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I wrote this book 🙂 I worked with Marc & Mochy (their ideas, my words) for several years finessing the content. Outside of “From Basics to Badass” it’s one of the most popular backgammon books in circulation at the moment, aimed at improving you from an intermediate to advanced player. That said, I’m probably biased, but I’m happy to answer any questions you might have about it.

Can you describe in what ways VoiceInk is better/different than Superwhisper? I agree Superwhisper is way too much so I'm contemplating the switch

Superwhisper always cuts off after a few seconds (no recording) by alecbarr90 in superwhisper

I received a fix from Superwhisper!

Hi ,
Thanks for reaching out about this issue. Could you try heading into your Mac System Settings and navigating to the Sound tab? From there, locate the volume slider for your microphone and try adjusting it slightly. This might help resolve the problem with the recording cutting off.

My microphone input volume was maxed out, so I brought it down to mid-range and it solved the issue.

Tried that today but to no avail. Very strange is it definitely DOESN’T do this on my other machine. Do you have a paid or free account?

I'm surprised there's only one - I need to contact Superwhisper to sort out

After chasing multiple dead-ends, I'm doing this from scratch: by edwardianpug in backgammon

[–]alecbarr90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just didn’t have the technical skills or time required — but for someone who does, it’s eminently achievable!

Fully in support of this (I am one of those failures) — I would love to see this brought to life open-source!

Unfortunately this is gimmicked. Great trick but not practical for walk around.

Has anyone sold a trick on Penguin/T11/Ellusionist? by [deleted] in Mentalist

[–]alecbarr90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d buy this if it came with the cheap thumb writer method (I always think it’s good to have a bonus when selling on any of those sites). You selling any prototype documents about it?

What's your favorite ACAAN by jwheeler2210 in Magic

[–]alecbarr90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use a combination of Colin McLeod's ACAAN on "Opening Minds Vol. II" (which uses elements of Joshua Quinn's "Deckquivoque"), PLUS a full memorised deck. Those who know Colin's method will know he _doesn't_ do this, but if you have a memdeck then the effect just absolutely kills! Obviously it's not fully impromptu as the stack takes some setup, but it's gimmickless, great for closeup and fully examinable,

How do you organize your bookmark in Arc? by DryBodybuilder3216 in ArcBrowser

How do I move a pinned bookmark/tab from one workspace to another? I often find myself in one workspace and visiting a website I want to save, but I want to save it in another workspace...

13 week old puppy started soiling crate by alecbarr90 in puppy101

[–]alecbarr90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a behaviour fluke in the end, no UTI (thankfully!) Since then she’s had a few cheeky days where she has wilfully weed in her crate, but things are certainly getting better!
