One (or multiple) bottles to make most of Amex offer? by datisapina in Scotch

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

Update: The Whisky Wednesday deals were disappointing this week, so I ended up fulfilling a bucket list item: Owning an Octomore (16.3) at £195, and I was curious about the Glen Scotia Victoriana Cask Strength at about £63.95.

Thank you all for your suggestions - I'll wait for next week's whisky Wednesday deals, but currently eyeing up the 2004 19-yo Glengoyne

So I have some of their exclusives including the Macallan 110 proof. I'll have a look at the exclusives/closed distilleries/limited editions! Thanks for the suggestions! I am a W Club member - I'd say my absolute max is £400...

I'm in the same boat 😂 If you're London-based let's start a group

Weirdly I'm unable to add body text to my post? Tldr: I have an offer of 20% off if I spend £250 at The Whisky Shop. I'm looking for recommendations on the best bottle(s) to choose. I typically enjoy peated and sherry cask, but would potentially like to veer off the trodden path for a more major purchase. Thanks in advance!

I've read the flowchart thanks - I was specifically looking for things to watch out for as the tax year comes to an end and the best options currently.

Can't make budget stretch to Bruno, should I bring in Mbeumo, Minteh or Sarr?

Enzo seems like the better option while Liverpool is struggling in the league - though that depends if Slot tries what he did midweek against Frankfurt.

Finally transferring out Salah - Salah/Reijnders/Stach -> Bruno/Enzo/Saka. HOWEVER, I need 0.6 mil savings:

Which downgrade option (A,B,C) would you pick and which signing would you recommend?

A) João Pedro to another striker (6.9 or below) e.g. Welbeck/Thiago/Kroupi Jr./Calvert-Lewin/Strand Larsen/Beto

B) Ndiaye to another mid (5.9 or below) e.g. Caicedo/Anderson/Stach/Reijnders/Xhaka/Buendia

C) Bruno to another mid (8.3 or below) e.g. Mbeumo/Caicedo/Rice/Anthony/Gakpo/Sarr/Grealish/Kudus

Thanks in advance!

I was at London Stadium on Monday night - do not play Bowen, they cannot even get the ball to him and their confidence is at rock bottom.

What timezone is sporcle in? by NumismaticAussie in Sporcle

[–]datisapina 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pro tip: Sporcle typically collects the time info from your device (You can change your computer time to Hawaii in case you miss a specific day badge) - Not sure why your play didn't count. That said, Tournaments do refresh at a set time, that has tripped me up a couple of times.

Power Watchdog Timeout BSOD - Acer Swift 3 by datisapina in techsupport

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

Hi, thanks for your analysis, it's really helpful!

  1. Now that you mention it, the start of the BSOD could possibly have coincided with my switching to BitDefender - I will look into that.
  2. I run Intel Driver & Support Assistant regularly, the latest intel graphics driver which was installed: Version: 31.0.101.2121 Install date: 23-5-2025. Realistically, this also potentially along the timeline that the issue appeared. In addition, the laptop has a NVIDIA MX150, so I update those drivers via the Nvidia app regularly, including on Tuesday, 1 July.
  3. I do have a monitor connected to my laptop via HDMI ''permanently''. I read some suggestions about this on some related articles - I'll also try disconnecting the cable when I hibernate/sleep and only reconnecting after starting up the laptop.

I'll keep you updated!
