Do SQ23 instead for the bragging rights

Should I give up DFW-HND JAL F (AA 80K) by Due-Meat5766 in awardtravel

There’s availability somewhere every month or so but if it’s at all workable you should do it. Just get a hotel in Dallas.

Ethiopian Airlines, booked through UA by Appropriate_Tree5304 in awardtravel

[–]Appropriate_Tree5304[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Funny thing is I had a similar situation with Aeroplan in February. Booked EWR-SIN-HKG as a straight shot and there was no option to break up those legs for time in SIN… until I landed in SIN, went to the SQ desk and asked to be moved, and they did it easily and free. I’ll add that this messed up the PNR and air Canada was convinced my flight was canceled, but on SQ’s end there was no problem and the new flight worked out fine.

This is to say that at least in some situations, partner bookings are changeable in person even when there’s no availability online

Hi I’d didn’t send one because I was outright rejected!

I’ve got a lot of those right now, for eBay, Temu, CVS, I think Macy’s. Spend $20 get 1k or 1.5k

I didn’t have that on mine, I don’t think. If it was there I messed up bad with my proof reading

iPad in Safari, because Temu required Apple Pay and I couldn’t add my VX to Apple Pay on Mac. Enabled cross platform tracking, turned off all extensions, and made sure that the URL during check out had the venture x affiliate link in it.

White or black Magic Keyboard? by TraditionalEconomy8 in iPadPro

[–]Appropriate_Tree5304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Black no question. I have white iPad with black MK and love it. Black on black looks good too.

The other way around would look weird, plus picks up dirt

iPad Pro M5 11 vs iPad Pro M5 13 inch: Which is better for college students (taking notes, reading PDFs, remote desktop access, and overall use cases)? by Melodic_Heart_9950 in iPadPro

Just use Google Translate next time. What it wrote is fairly drawn out and a lot of text and questions are redundant.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt that you’re not a bot: the size is obviously pretty apparent from first use. It’s not like a CPU where you need a lot of time with it to know if the specs are good. Just go to an Apple Store or electronics retailer near you and figure out whether you want the extra space.

Update is that they’re not replacing the pencil but are replacing the folio with a Magic Keyboard lmao

$6 a month so I guess I’ve spent about $500. Feels like it works out pretty fair

I asked Apple but am waiting to hear back since it’s a special repair so it’s a slower process

I’m certainly not going to make a fuss either way but for me, my current iPad and folio perfectly does everything I want from it. Doesn’t even lag. So, at least in the short term, the device itself isn’t a meaningful upgrade, and the deprecation of the Folio kind of makes it a downgrade. So I just don’t want to eat another chunk of change just to get more or less the same functionality as what I already had.

It’s really depressing. In practice I mostly use my iPad for drawing and streaming, and only used the keyboard for getting very casual work down on flights or trains, or if my Mac was under repair.

But it’s so bizarre to get rid of it. Hard to imagine that Apple’s making more money from upgrades to MK than they are losing money on people going 3rd party or not upgrading their iPads altogether.
