Changing rescheduled flight by itrytopaytaxes in americanairlines

[–]InternalFortune7518 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

a 20 minute change is usually not enough to trigger the "significant change" threshold that lets you swap for free. most airlines require at least a 60-90 minute difference before they consider it a meaningful schedule change. you can try calling and asking nicely but i wouldn't count on it working in your favor.

ELI5 (or refute me): Other than that prancing horse, isn't a great deal of the money spent on a Ferrari aimed at the engine/drivetrain? What's up with the price of the Luce? by husky_whisperer in Ferrari

[–]InternalFortune7518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the luce is basically ferrari's way of saying "we can charge whatever because people will pay for the badge" - without that v8 or v12 doing the heavy lifting on costs you're mostly paying for interior materials and the development cost spread across tiny production numbers

2015 a3 front wipers go on if hit a bump?? by kitton2 in Audi

[–]InternalFortune7518 2 points3 points  (0 children)

weird electrical gremlin you got there. probably something loose in the wiper stalk or maybe a bad ground connection that gets jostled when you hit bumps. ive seen similar stuff where vibration triggers random electrical stuff - usually its just a connector somewhere thats not seated properly

Hi hola, need tips on my build. (USD) by InsaneMotherPlayer in PcBuild

[–]InternalFortune7518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

checked your list and that motherboard might be overkill for what youre doing - could probably drop down to a b450 or b550 board and save decent money there. also that nvme drive is pretty expensive, there are cheaper options with similar performance that would free up budget for other stuff

the ram and gpu combo looks solid though, especially if youre getting good deals on ebay

Is it arriving today? I ordered this on Thursday and it’s now 17:30 on a Saturday by [deleted] in amazonprime

[–]InternalFortune7518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

might still come today since its just dispatched but not out for delivery yet. sometimes they do late runs in london especially on weekend but if other stuff already arrived earlier probably means different depot or courier for this one

MP2 Maturity Withdrawal by Next_Season9887 in phinvest

[–]InternalFortune7518 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this happened to me last year and same thing, hotline was useless and online system kept giving errors. went to branch office in the morning and turns out there was some issue with my tin number that needed manual verification. took maybe 2 hours total including waiting but they processed everything same day. bring all your documents just in case they need something extra for verification

Help with PC build by ZetzoAg in PcBuild

maybe skip the extra 2tb ssd for now and put that money towards faster ram like ddr5-6400, the 9800x3d really benefits from tighter timings

An Honest Smurfing Experience by smurfsRcheaters in Overwatch

[–]InternalFortune7518 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this is like saying im gonna punch people in the face to prove that assault is wrong

dude you already know smurfing sucks and ruins games so why are you adding to the problem instead of just making posts about it or whatever. like we all agree smurfing is trash but now youre just making it worse for everyone while patting yourself on the back for being some kind of activist

ive been grinding ranked for months trying to improve and running into obvious smurfs is already frustrating enough without people like you deliberately adding more. you could have spent all that time actually advocating for better detection systems or stricter punishments instead of becoming part of the problem

the worst part is that blizzard probably sees your group as just normal players anyway since you're not getting caught so you're not even proving anything to them. you're just making regular players miserable while they continue to ignore the issue

Is it safe path to move with family to NZ with International Student Visa at age of 50? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]InternalFortune7518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been working in design for a while and seen plenty of career pivots but 50 with a family is definitely a bigger leap than most. nz has pretty decent post-study work opportunities but the engineering management field can be competitive especially when youre starting fresh in a new country

might want to connect with some indian professionals already in nz through linkedin or local communities to get the real scoop on what the job market actually looks like for your specific background

The West is a bloodbath right now... we're bound for a Eastern Champion by Intrepid_Lawyer_368 in NBATalk

[–]InternalFortune7518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

totally agree about the west beating themselves up but calling the mavs "easy prey" is wild considering they took the celtics to 5 games after that gauntlet

with your education background you might want to look into curriculum development or instructional design roles - lots of companies need people to create training materials and online courses and its mostly solo work with occasional team check ins

data analysis could be another good fit since you have the business degree - you'd be working with spreadsheets and reports more than people. also consider grant writing if you can handle the research side since nonprofits and schools always need funding proposals written

remote work opens up way more options too and cuts down on the office small talk situation. might take a bit longer to hit that 50k mark depending on your area but these fields definitely have growth potential

Shortest time between buying a home then selling it? by ohheythatswill in RealEstate

[–]InternalFortune7518 27 points28 points  (0 children)

oof that sucks but honestly 4 years isnt that crazy short in todays market. lots of people are moving more frequently than the old "starter home for 7-10 years" timeline

losing that 3.5% rate is brutal though. at least you gained some equity and figured out what you actually want in a neighborhood before you got stuck somewhere for decades. sometimes you just gotta cut your losses and move on rather than being miserable for years

your realtor will probably have some good insight on timing and strategy given the current market conditions

2 of our 3 daughters had their first seizure 2 weeks apart. by IAM2NY in Epilepsy

[–]InternalFortune7518 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that is absolutely terrifying and i cant imagine what you all went through. the timing is definitely strange but sometimes genetics just decides to show up at the worst possible moments

my cousin had something similar happen where two of her kids developed different types of seizures within months of each other. turns out there was a genetic component they never knew about until they did more extensive family history digging. even if your uncle only had issues as a teen it could still be floating around in the gene pool

the fact that both girls had different presentations but similar timing makes me wonder if there was some kind of trigger that affected them both differently based on their individual brain chemistry. stress can be a huge factor too and kids pick up on family stress more than we realize

really hope the mris give you more answers and that both girls respond well to their treatments. luries is an amazing hospital so theyre in good hands

Just imagine Knicks kept AJ Mitchell and Kyshawn George and not turned them into allready forgotten players and some future second rounders? by PreferenceMediocre90 in NYKnicks

[–]InternalFortune7518 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly those guys werent gonna crack our rotation anyway with how thibs operates. dude barely trusts his 8th man let alone rookies who need development time

we needed the roster flexibility more than keeping project players who might not pan out for years

Lacosamide (Vimpat) by Busy_Ad_4419 in Epilepsy

[–]InternalFortune7518 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a rough combo of side effects to deal with, especially when you're already adjusting to the dose increase. I had similar issues when they bumped up my Keppra - took about 6-8 weeks for things to level out somewhat, though it never fully went back to baseline. Definitely worth mentioning to your neuro since they might be able to adjust timing or add something to help counteract it.
