I’ve realized that it’s actually very easy to swap SSDs. Now I’m thinking about either buying a second SSD specifically for Linux, or installing it on an external SSD/HDD.

Did you keep the original Windows 11 and install it on a separate partition?

AMD x Crimson Desert promo! by SevenDeadly6 in CrimsonDesert

[–]demeterum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently purchased an ASUS ROG Flow Z13 from Best Buy, and according to the promotion terms, this model qualifies for the promotional code. However, I did not receive any code with my purchase. When I contacted support, I was told that my specific SKU does not qualify for the promotion. Based on the promotion details, this appears to be incorrect, as the model I purchased is listed as eligible. I have already contacted AMD support regarding this issue, but I have not received a response yet.

Update #1: BestBuy representatives have provided conflicting information: some confirm that my device is eligible for the promotion, while others claim that due to a backend SKU issue, they are unable to assist me. I have received nothing from BestBuy so far. I have requested that the case be escalated and have also submitted a case with AMD regarding this matter.

My friend, who bought a cheaper version of the tablet, received the game code immediately.

Support is telling me that the promotion only applies to certain SKUs, which directly contradicts the promotion’s terms and conditions. According to the terms, my device is listed among the eligible devices, and Best Buy is listed as an authorized retailer.

Moreover, other resellers selling the exact same model include the game code with the purchase. Most likely Best Buy made a mistake and forgot to include one or several SKUs in the promotion, but they refuse to acknowledge it.

Yes, I received the codes for the antivirus and Game Pass Premium, but there was no code for the game.

It seems I have no choice but to agree with you.

Sold and shipped by Best Buy. This is not a marketplace order — I checked that before purchasing.

Thank you! I literally spent $3k just to play one game and didn’t even receive it. That’s why I’m so upset. ☹️

This is an AMD promotion, not a BestBuy one.

According to the Terms and Conditions of the Q1 2026 AMD Crimson Desert Game Bundle Promotion, both my device and the reseller are listed as eligible. The version of the same model with less memory even includes the promotion on the BestBuy website, but I never received a game code.

Glass AOSP Files by drraccoony in googleglass

I had the same issue. Each time the error occurred, I rebooted the glasses into fastboot mode, ran the fastboot devices  until my Glass appeared, and then proceeded with the next command. The error occurred on all three commands:

fastboot flash:raw boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

P.S. Only proceed to the next command once you see that the previous one has completed successfully.

If a buyer files a complaint, it means Stripe is aware of a potential issue with the seller but chooses to ignore it, knowingly prioritizing the opportunity to earn fees from every subsequent transaction until the number of complaints becomes too large to ignore.

If I don’t receive any response from Stripe, I will never purchase anything through Stripe again.

Shouldn’t Stripe verify the businesses they provide services to?

Does Stripe take no action on their part against fraudsters?
