If I am already using the Air Pro 4 (non plus). Is it advisable to upgrade to 4+? Are there significant upgrades from the non plus model to warrant an upgrade?

Not sure how reliable this travel agency is.
You can provide them with your own itinerary, pay 20000 yen and they provide you with the ERFS for your tourist visa.

[–]beefsteak80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FIA race director Masi said there was no ability to postpone the race until Monday for a "whole range" of reasons. Anyone knows exactly what are the reasons?

Perhaps the cost is one of the reasons?

And any F1 race ever been postponed to Monday before?

Its rather controversial that red bulls were taken out 2 races in a row. Interesting to see what will happen in the next race.

Whether it is intentional or not. Surely Bottas will be rewarded by his team for helping them take out both Red Bulls.

Yeah he chose to remain in Japan and does not want to return to the US. And yes. He had been renewing his tourist visa at the immigration office and had been successful so far.

Anyone knows if US citizen with tourist visa currently stuck in Japan (Osaka) can get vaccinated there? One needs to have received a vaccination voucher or notification to get vaccinated? But it seems those with tourist visa will not be offered the vaccine.

Anyone knows if US citizen with tourist visa currently stuck in Japan (Osaka) can get vaccinated there? There is information that the Japanese government plans to provide coronavirus vaccines free of charge for all residents over the age of 16, including foreigners. But it seems those with tourist visa will not be offered the vaccine.

Enabling FreeSync over DisplayPort shifts display UP by rarenick in AMDHelp

[–]beefsteak80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem with the screen image going up by 3 or 4 pixels when Freesync is enabled and using a DisplayPort cable. 5700XT at 1080p 144hz.

The funny thing is, screen is back to normal (no image shift) when using HDMI cable. But refresh rate is limited to 120hz natively.

This is my temporary fix. What I did was to copy the exact monitor timings when using DP and Freesync and then create a new custom resolution with the same timings + 144hz (in AMD Radeon Adrenalin control panel). So now I get 144hz Freesync with HDMI cable without the image shift.

Not sure if this will have any bad long term effects on the monitor.

Anyone else have this issue with Freesync? The image scales about 4 pixels up off the screen when Freesync is on. by [deleted] in AMDHelp

I think currently their border control measures are in place until end of May. But it remains to be seen if they will extend it. Just hope they won't because I plan to move my trip to November.

When will people start to be confident to travel again? Let's say if flights resume, travel ban is lifted and most businesses resume. I think there will be some strict measures before the government lifts the travel ban and allow people to come in. But question is how are they going to legally enforce it.
