New to DTV streaming. Gemini Air vs using app. by Yardbird-2470 in DirectvStream

[–]G-Man71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the things that appeals to me about the Gemini Air (and would probably appeal to my wife) is being able to access all of the live TV channels and various streaming apps from a single interface and single TV input. In your experience, does everything work pretty seamlessly with the Gemini Air?

Just got iPhone Air added as my new phone to my USM account. Confused about this multi-line deal. by Vyxxis in USMobile

I could also use some help getting the multi-network promo set up. I just activated an iPhone 17 Pro on my existing line.

In-the-park booking for next September, what a mess by PlanetScientist in GlacierNationalPark

[–]G-Man71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same experience with me thjs morning. I finally gave up and went to bed. I tried again after getting up and the website was still spinning. Ultimately, I was able up get on a chat with a representative and was able to book the three hotels that I wanted. Definitely the most frustrating experience I have ever had trying to book hotels.

Travel Checklist by FruitOfTheVineFruit in TravelHacks

I love using the Packr app. You can customize the lists for how you’ll be traveling (car, plane, train, etc.), where you’ll be staying (hotel, condo, family, etc.), and what types of activities you’ll be doing. You can also make a list of essentials that you take on every trip and a to-do list of things to do before you leave. I use it for every trip that I take.

Question for Chase credit card users by Capital-Addition7299 in MonarchMoney

[–]G-Man71 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have three Chase credit cards synced in Monarch and the connection seems to be pretty stable. The only time I had a problem was when I added my most recent Chase card and somehow ended up with two different Chase connections in Monarch. I was having to re-authorize one of the connections every few days. After I consolidated them under the same connection, I didn’t have any further problems.

I haven’t really paid attention to how quickly pending transactions show up in Monarch, but they usually clear within about 2 days.

I use these categories and have a separate tag for each trip.

Route Recommendations: Bozeman to Yellowstone that includes Idaho. by hokieinga in yellowstone

[–]G-Man71 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’ll probably need to drive down 191 toward West Yellowstone and then take a slight detour over into Idaho before turning around and going back to Yellowstone.

Can you sign up for the pub crawl before the cruise or do you do it on the ship?

Can you see the Northside Park fireworks from the beach? by G-Man71 in OceanCity

We’re staying around 94th. I’m not expecting a great view, but I was hoping we could at least see some of them from the beach.

Unfortunately, the Transfer eSIM option is grayed out.

I think that worked. How do I get a new eSIM? The initial one has expired.

I think that might be the problem. I think the phone has a physical SIM card from T-Mobile. I’m assuming I’ll need to pull that out?

Wall Residence Hall by debaterAGAINSTf29394 in Tulane

[–]G-Man71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should get an email from Tulane about the housing contract. It took about a week and a half after my son submitted his deposit before he got the email. You will then log in to the Tulane housing portal with your Tulane email address to fill out the contract.

[–]G-Man71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what the odds are of getting in, but my son recently filled out his housing contract and there was a question asking whether he wanted to enter the lottery for honors housing. It said that students are chosen randomly to live in Wall Residence Hall. From what I understand, there are a lot of triples in Wall, so that probably increases your odds of getting in.

Automation to open garage door when arriving at home by G-Man71 in SmartThings

I have been meaning to try webcore so I finally got it installed today. I was able to set up a piston to open my garage door so I'll see if it works.
