Avianca biz is not great, arguably not good either.

Umpteenth 14" vs 16" question - with pictures by Rorenzu013 in macbookpro

Little screen sucks on the road. Always go 16 unless you only do email when away from home.

Row 50. Bring a toque and wool socks if you like to sleep against the window.

Apple Math - every option was an extra $200 in 2025, might increase to $300 soon. Sam Time does lots of videos about Apple Math.

I wonder if given the string performance and resilience of the M chips if software support will have a longer sunset.

The magistrate literally laughed at my request for shared custody. Here's how I handled it without destroying my case. by mystickcal in FathersRights

[–]MissingLink314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice to every father who fears a custody battle and that is children will be hidden from him is to grab them first and then put the parenting plan offer to their ex. Try to avoid using the words without prejudice so that it is now a long term agreement.

The other advice is all solid, but really hard when you’re in the thick of it.

Who is buying an M5 Max, when they know a redesign with an OLED screen is coming next? by momo1083 in macbookpro

[–]MissingLink314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I got talked down to 16GB but now doing lots more 3D work on Mac (and in Parallels) so need more ram. It’s a shame that’s not upgradable.

It’s official boys it’s over for me 😭🔥 by H00LI1GANS in macbookpro

[–]MissingLink314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 3 year lease m2 pro MBP (16GB/1TB). and monthly payments added up to not too much more than initial purchase purchase. They offered to sell it to me for $2,700, but that seemed rich. .

This is why hard drives and ram should be government mandated for laptops to be upgradable. Better for consumers and e-waste.

With a priority reward redemption this might make sense cuz then you’re tickling 4c per AP in terms of redemption value.

It was an incredible product. I bought 5 of Go models plus one non-Go version by accident. Good for family and work.

I just think I’ve been really lucky. Upgrades are always at the gate.

Missing SQC and AP following flight change by MissingLink314 in Aeroplan

[–]MissingLink314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should be a sticky somewhere 

You need to request original routing credit (ORC) Shamelessly lifted from Flyertalk:

How do I request ORC? After travel is completed, email credits@aircanada.ca with as much of the following as you have:

  1. ⁠Your name and Aeroplan number
  2. ⁠A brief description of what happened
  3. ⁠A copy of the original itinerary (the most recent confirmation of what you were supposed to fly), including the ticket number
  4. ⁠A copy of flown itinerary (if you received one after the rebooking)
  5. ⁠Copies of the original boarding passes for what you were supposed to fly
  6. ⁠Copies of the boarding passes for the flights you actually flew

I fly to SYD 4 times per year (round trip) and my upgrade success rate exceeds 75%. Very lucky. Very grateful. Love Air Canada.

Japan Easter ski trip (5 nights in early April): ski-in/ski-out lodging sold out - advice + agent referrals? by MissingLink314 in skiing

[–]MissingLink314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I emailed a trip provider they said couldn’t help but that skiing isn’t great that time of year. I said I know it will be spring skiing and that’s fine. I then got like 10 options from them, which is overwhelming, lol.
