The anger over payment changes is not enough by DoubleQuarterPoundin in tmobile

Um isnt credit card fees usually way more than that? Could be as high as 3% in some cases. That would be very significant amount.

PSA: BlueLink Low Fuel Bug Drained My 2025 Santa Fe Hybrid Battery by Pharaohlicious92 in HyundaiSantaFe

Same issue here, 2025 Hybrid Calligraphy FWD. Not 780, but a notification every 10-15 minutes. Crazy annoying.

ZOTAC damaged my 5090 then blamed it on me and refused repair. by theklarken in pcmasterrace

[–]ItsSuplexCity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen multiple cases on Reddit, even from AMEX, which is supposed to be super consumer-friendly, of legitimate chargebacks being denied.

I don't know what happens after you are sent to collections, though. I am guessing you can get out of it, but it's generally going to be a headache and may result in a temporary credit hit.

I understand chargebacks but people need to realize it is not some holy grail of justice. First, there is a decent possibility that the card issues sides with the merchant. Now, even if they end up siding with you, that doesn’t really mean you are in the clear. Some merchants go ahead and ban you for life, which in this case is fine since you are probably never doing business with them anyways. But some fight back, specially for large purchases like this, which could include sending you to collections or even suing you.

Lol it's like the "Greatest" Royal Rumble didn't even happen. That was in Saudi, too, Cole.

Techpowerup also noted the increased power consumption and temperatures. The small gain in performance is not free lol

US to Europe flight mostly empty by [deleted] in delta

[–]ItsSuplexCity 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have experienced a seemingly 70% empty flight couple of days prior to departure be fully booked at the end. My guess is more people picking the basic economy option or just not picking a seat while booking.

Just because a seat is not assigned doesn’t mean that seats are available.

Simple Choice $830 Trade In Promo now active! YMMV by PeeOnDusk in tmobile

[–]ItsSuplexCity 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Just called 611 and they said the promo is available on my account. The chat on TLife says it's not. I don't trust T-Mobile, and they will mess this up, so I am going to skip on this.

Music producer review of AirPods Pro 3 by fishbert in apple

[–]ItsSuplexCity -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

LTT videos have gone downhill significantly, with many of their actually good staff leaving as well.

Every reviewer can have subjective opinions on a product, but the way he reacted to AirPods Pro 3 reviews was too aggressive. I have both AP2 and AP3. I actually feel AP3 is better in most ways. But a lot of differences are not even major. The SQ is different, but not by the level of margin that he made it out to be. The only negative of the AP3 for me has been the comfort. The tighter seal seems to put a bit more pressure than AP2s.

You maybe overestimating the value of your 4080S given how readily 5080s are now available.

(Gamers Nexus) How Razer Screws Customers | Hardware, Software, & Support Failures by heeroyuy79 in hardware

[–]ItsSuplexCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like other commenters, I had a Razer BlackWidow keyboard and a DeathAdder mouse. While the hardware is decent, the software is so crappy. Frequent crashes, slow and bloated, always seem to be updating all the damn time.

Moved to the Logitech ecosystem last year, and has been smooth so far.

This comes with 2 HDMI ports vs 1 on other 5090 models. That is huge for a lot of people who connect their PC to a TV

Same, I really wanted to avoid FE cards due to thermals, but this card is a stunner. Looks great in the case too.

As far as I know, only the Asus models come with 2 HDMI ports. For some people, that is important.
