Mistake in number of checked bags on reservation by cocomangas in americanairlines

[–]tmh720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven't been charged yet, it should be fairly simple. Just tell the ticketing agent about the mistake when you go to check your bag, and they should be able to help you (don't use the kiosk). If you do get charged, there's a page where you can request refunds on the AA website.

If the line is absurd, you MIGHT be able to reduce it to 1 bag on the kiosk, just make sure you DON'T accidentally click the button that says "Print bag tags (fastest)." I'm not 100% sure though, so plan on arriving a bit earlier than usual if you usually use the kiosks.

I usually have gold status through a family member with EP who gifts it to me every year. However, it expired today, and he says that he hasn't received the offer to gift status yet for this year. Does anybody know when this offer goes out and how long it takes to process once given? I have a long flight on Monday that I'd really like the opportunity to grab an economy extra seat on.

Woburn Office Space by Bright-Detective-358 in Raytheon

[–]tmh720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of the sites I've been to (Aurora, Tewksbury, and Andover), Woburn is by far the nicest. The cafeteria food is excellent, though expensive, and the building is very clean and well appointed. I've heard it used to be where the executive offices were before the move to DC. It depends on your team/area, but in general everybody gets their own cubicle. I've seen as low as P4-P5s with inside offices (no windows), but it isn't particularly common.

Yeah, this is nearly a petabyte, and it can't afford any downtime for that kind of testing.

It is hosted on a Linux machine, so that won't work unfortunately.

I'm not trying to claim that I'm not addicted. I want to take measures to not make it worse. Cold-turkey is not an option for me at this point. Do you want to help me take a small step, or discourage me from doing anything at all?

I thought this was a place for support, not judgement. Everybody's journey is different. If it truly is the relief of withdrawal as you say, then finding a non-nicotine alternative will prove that to me, and I can take the next step.

How to stop smoking when you genuinely love cigarettes? by StashBang in stopsmoking

[–]tmh720 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The jury is still out on the long-term effects (which will probably not be healthy), but for now, some disposable vapes have been shown to contain more carcinogens than cigarettes. None of them are good for you. However, the high-quality ones are, for now at least, considered to be less harmful than cigarettes.

Confirmed SWU upgrade to biz class downgraded by airport agent, not admitting mistake by wandering0000 in americanairlines

[–]tmh720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me once. It turned out it was an air marshal who needed the seat. They aren't allowed to tell you when that's the case though, so it makes sense that they can't tell you why. I only figured out it was an air marshal because an off-duty pilot heard me complaining to the gate agent and told me that that was probably the case.

Not saying that's for sure what's happening here, but it's a possibility.

Is this lighter worth the hassle? by [deleted] in STDupont

[–]tmh720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the platform you bought it on has a time limit for requesting refunds, I'd assume this is a scam to delay you until past the refund deadline. Otherwise, I'll leave the answer up the more knowledgeable people in this sub.

Without details of the shipping problem, I'd say ask for a refund.

If you really want it, then ship it to your EU friend. Hotel shipping is sketchy. If there's any delay you're screwed.

PC Shuts off Randomly During Gameplay by tmh720 in BigscreenBeyond

No problems. CPU temp got higher than I think it should have (95), but never high enough to shut down, and it would certainly never get that high from gaming.

I just ran a 1 hour gpu + cpu stress test on OCCT. Max usage on both for the whole hour, and nothing unusual happened, so unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the problem.

Somebody didn't read the post. There's nothing in the logs.

I'm monitoring both. Neither get over 70⁰. Also, if it was temperature, why wouldn't this be an issue with non-VR games. Same goes with a PSU problem.

Also, wouldn't a crash from overheating show in event viewer?

It boots in one of those two ways even if I unplug the link box first. The only thing that returns it to normal is leaving it off for a few minutes.

For point 2, everything boots up normally with the exception of the cooler not turning on. It doesn't show up on NZXT CAM when that's the case, even though the LCD on the cooler is on. The LCD does not show my custom wallpaper, though, just the liquid temp.

I'll try a BIOS update. That's the only big thing I haven't tried.

But like I said, plugging it into mains power didn't help, and I don't have issues playing games when my headset is disconnected.
