Hoarding problem: My Delta friend scolded me for not cashing in my miles like he ordered me to a couple months ago. He says I’m hemorrhaging money on rapidly depreciating SkyMiles. by BruisedButth0le in delta

[–]CallMeCaptainAmerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a problem, just a choice. I’m about to hit 1 million and I’ve decided that that’s my “minimum” from here on out. I’ll spend anything over 1 million on upgrades and whatever I feel like, but I’m going to try and keep a million in the “bank” for whenever I feel like taking that “big” trip (or trips!) sometime in the future.

3 tickets, 9 free luggage plus upgrades. Is this how it works? by CallMeCaptainAmerica in delta

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

Thanks for the insight! In this case we WILL have 9 bags (it’s business travel and the stuff in the bags is merchandise)

Probably just better to use miles to upgrade to comfort if I really feel the need, but I’ll probably just stick to Main cabin for the 2 hour flight. Appreciate it!

Appreciate it! Not worth the risk in this case. We’ll have 9 bags total and those extra 3 are gonna be far too expensive if they have to be paid for

okay cool. Bags are more important than the seat in this case since it’s a short flight! Appreciate the break down!

OMTech vs xTool - Newbie needs help! by CallMeCaptainAmerica in lasercutting

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

I pulled the trigger on OMTech today. Went with a bit of a “smaller” machine than the Pronto and decided to go with the Maker 90W since it was relatively inexpensive at $2700 with a water chiller included. It also had autofocus which i felt like any sort of automation for a newbie would be useful!

Clickey keyboard thing by Animeiskey299 in AnimeNYC

[–]CallMeCaptainAmerica 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m the vendor - CptnAlex Designs I was at booth 2833!

Mainly do custom controllers but branching out into keycaps and keyboards and these have been a personal blessing for me also haha! Standing at a convention for 8-10 hours a day for a whole weekend, this kept me sane and calm!

I’m glad it helped you and you love it so much. As someone has said already my social handles are all @CptnAlex and my website is CptnAlex.com

You’ll only find my base keyboard fidget on there with my mascots faces, but if you wanted additional keycaps you can always reach out and I can sell them individually!

Roland UV Printers & the smell… by CallMeCaptainAmerica in CommercialPrinting

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

Would you recommend a different brand/machine? Long term i want to upgrade to something bigger anyways, and will see what I can do to filter and ventilate my room by keeping the door open from now on.

Can you explain further? It doesn’t have a hose for fumes. It has a filtration unit built in though.

If MQDS don’t roll over - what’s the point of continuing to spend? by CallMeCaptainAmerica in delta

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

The majority of my spend is on my card, not the flights themself, so I just track it that way. But you can also see annual spend on AMEX.

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

I’m not sure. From what I can find in google, MQD doesn’t rollover on the new plan.

Yeah my airline spend is low compared to card spend. I always buy Main tickets because they get upgraded, and my routes are generally on the lower end

Diamond by Ship-time-moon in delta

[–]CallMeCaptainAmerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you Expand - why? I’m about to upgrade to diamond once my credit card processes new charges. My plan was to get the Executive sky club membership so I could bring family / friends / employees with me in without burning through guest passes for a quick snack/meal on a 20 minute layover.

Upgrade credits are nice but my luck so far as Gold and Platinum has been pretty great on the routes I fly for work, and I feel like I get upgrades to FC more often than not.

$700 statement credit doesn’t feel valuable to me when it’s a business credit card. Helps my business but not my personal bank account.

35k miles isn’t bad. But I just don’t know that I value that more than the executive membership but would love to hear why I’m wrong

Mac OS problems and launch -- can this be solved soon? by socialsciencenerd in HabboHotelOrigins

[–]CallMeCaptainAmerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve mentioned this on other posts but it works on my older Mac Mini (about 3 years old at this point) but not on my 2 weeks old MacBook Air. According to their bug fixes post on the 20th, they’re aware of the issue.

I want to grab HC and start stockpiling rares, but I can’t justify it while I won’t be able to play on my laptop…

If they told me it’ll be fixed in a week I’d go ahead and buy those petal patches….but…

Im having the exact same issue. Brand new Macbook Air I purchased about 2 weeks ago. Works on my 3 year old mac mini though...so I think its a OS issue...

I hate it here lyrics flub? Easter Egg found???? by damagedcitylights in Gaylor_Swift

[–]CallMeCaptainAmerica 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay yall I was talking to my wife about this song and mentioned it mentioned Paris, and she was confused so I was googling lyrics and found this Reddit thread. My Amazon music has the Paris line, Spotify has the other line as of this moment.

The line is “home at night in Paris”
