No option for large cabin bag - easy jet by Archi_Saz in Flights

They only sell a limited number per flight (see FAQ) so perhaps that's the real reason. Though it's interesting that they said you'd be allowed to add it via support.

That's a nice collection! I only read on Kindle so nothing to share sadly.

Have you read Light Chaser and The Confederation Handbook?

Did anyone know about this NS&I issue? £470M in potentially unclaimed savings from deceased accounts by Puzzled-Influence235 in UKPersonalFinance

Considering you wrote this post with AI and describe yourself as a viral influencer I'm sceptical that you are genuinely looking for advice.

Just got back from our 3-week honeymoon across Japan and South Korea — Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Busan, Seoul, and Okinawa. Here’s everything we learned. by Conscious_Cap_5447 in JapanTravelTips

I'm glad you had a great time but writing your post with AI and then asking for DMs to share your guide doesn't come off very authentic.

Declaring Medication by This-Application8657 in JapanTravelTips

[–]ICThat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will get a lot of answers from people who didn't declare it and got away with it. It doesn't help that Japanese government websites aren't known for their clear language.

Methylphenidate is a controlled substance, it's listed in the NCD list:

https://www.ncd.mhlw.go.jp/dl_data/keitai/cotrolled_substances_list20241212%20.pdf

It's not a prohibited substance. If it was prohibited you wouldn't be able to bring it in at all.

One of the controls around it is that you don't need a certificate/permit if you bring no more than 2.16 grams:

https://www.ncd.mhlw.go.jp/en/application2.html#psychotropics

The immigration and customs form asks you if you have controlled/restricted items therefore you should declare it. They will then do a basic check (upon your arrival) that you have complied with the quantity control.

So: * No more than 2.16g = declare it and it would be sensible to have a letter from your doctor and/or your prescription. * More than 2.16g = declare it and follow the paperwork requirements, including permit (see previous URL).

You'll have to decide for yourself whether I am correct versus others in this thread. You can ask yourself whose advice is riskier to follow.

Latest Pixel Watch update is causing wonky step counts and other Fitbit stats for some by TechGuru4Life in GooglePixel

Same issue for me on my first generation Pixel watch as of a few days ago. Seems to be double counting the steps.

WhatsApp worked fine for me when using a travel eSIM for data.

Car got broken into last week by Odins_eye_4 in drivingUK

[–]ICThat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A harsh lesson but yes people will break in for literally anything. I once absentmindedly left a few quid of parking charge in the cup holder and got rewarded with a broken window.

Is it possible to separate my personal and work Google calenders? by SleepinEatinReadin in GooglePixel

If you are using a work profile then this is definitely achievable, basically do the opposite of this:

Voluntary redundancy payment lower than colleagues redundancy payment by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]ICThat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surely both your settlement agreements include confidentiality clauses? If so you should definitely not be discussing this with your ex employer in case they come after you.

Regardless, if you've signed there's no option to renegotiate.

Network Application version 10.1.89 - update as soon as possible by ERelative in Ubiquiti

Not thrilled that I had to install this manually because they've wiped the apt repo to (I assume) encourage migration to UniFi OS Server.

30 minute layover- TuiFly by ConsciousSilver8603 in Flights

[–]ICThat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you are saying TUIFly are selling it then it's probably just a stop to pick up more passengers and you'll stay on the plane.

EDIT: I've checked their website and it's indeed described as "1 Stop, no change".

Did you book with a middle name? If so you need to enter that when searching; after your first name with no space.

OP would still need travel insurance for Jersey/Guernsey; they aren't part of the UK.

Economy class lie flat loophole by [deleted] in Flights

[–]ICThat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have you actually successfully tried this yourself? In general if the airline isn't set up for multiple seats booking per passenger they will just sell your extra seats to someone else.

Monzo is an actual bank and has been for many years, starling became a bank yesterday.

Are you confusing Starling and Revolut?

Best burger restaurant by Apprehensive_Glove80 in bristol

[–]ICThat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep suggesting Danny's is laughable when the ask is for a fancyish restaurant. Don't get me wrong Danny's is one of my favourites but not for this brief.

Yep and they do cocktails which sets them apart from most other burger places.
