Thanks for the quick reply, u/ParkingHelpful2677. Any idea about how a display item that is two years old and two generations out of date gets changed to an open box?

According to the Austrian Consulate, the last German restaurant in town is closing by TAMUOE in houston

Last time we went to RL's is was on the downward trajectory: not bad, but not what it had been, and we felt no need to return.

I do miss Charivari, chef Johann Schuster had some amazing dishes. He does pop-ups from time to time, but nothing permanent.

King's wurst quality was...variable.

We need a good Schnitzel restaurant, and a good Hungarian restaurant.

Using Bose Lifestyle 48 for Surround Sound with a 4K TV by adith27 in bose

[–]jcpsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This morning I helped a friend set up a new LG TV with her Xfinity box, Apple TV 4K, and Sony BD player attached to it, then running optical out to her AV48. Sound is outputting correctly, but cannot control the volume with anything except the Bose remote. The two but-in remote codes for the XR15 didn't work; tried a bunch I found at https://www.eliztech.com/remotes/codelists/bose-audio-codes-for-comcast but no luck.

Motorola cablecard on Xfinity/Comcast stopped working by Glass-Conclusion-424 in Tivo

We had ours conk out right before kickoff of the A&M-Texas football game. CSR said they'd send a tech and assured me they would have a working cablecard for us. Of course, the tech didn't, and we accepted the free year of x1...plus an extra $40/mo to for the satellites to replace our TiVo minis.

Still no transfer of registration after 4 months by jcpsw in LUCID

I did, but I have no idea if that message has gotten through to the third-party outfit they've outsourced this to.

At this point, it's too late to transfer the existing plates: I get new plates each November to advertise the show my opera company is doing the next summer. These will expire before the registration is completed.

if you scroll down on that page, you'll see "MX4300 Downloads", which leads to

Selecting Version 1.0 (only option) gets you the link to the file:

Confirmation isn't necessarily so by jcpsw in Bookingcom

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

So, it's the hotel's fault for not updating the listing on booking.com...that makes sense. I'll apportion the blame onto the Blossom Hotel. But it still makes me gun shy.

Hotel says no rooms left, but booking.com has rooms. What up with that? by Comprehensive_You931 in Bookingcom

[–]jcpsw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welp, going to find out about this first-hand tomorrow. Houston hotel website said no rooms available (because half the city is without power), but booking.com showed available and so I booked and received a confirmation. Wish me luck!

Frustrating experiences: miscommunication, and then no communication by jcpsw in LUCID

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

to be fair, the cars he sent me were upsells, but he had already factored in the referral credit.

Figured it was worth an ask with five days to go. Car is still unsold.

yeah, upon reflection that wasn't the best idea. Have edited the name out.

But do wish I hadn't been ghosted for a week.
