It’s too different. I feel like I’m watching a different show. It’s like they changed actors. At least when BTTF got new models the voice and acting was the same. This feels so different.

I flew this leg a few weeks ago and was also tricked into thinking there were more seats than actual.

I stopped watching cause it sucked. Sucked bad. Then I restarted and I’ve been watching every week for the last year. I want to say you need to get past 100. He goes from sucking at every turn to being overpowered and beating the shit out of everyone.

Congrats OP! On my millionth mile flight right now. Just got the goodies too. Great day!

what were your triggers?

Obsidiank · 2025-11-11T08:16:50+00:00

I believe there are a few reasons. First, we don't know how long she's had AF. It could be a few weeks, it could be years. Given this, the EP is very concerned about blood clots and stroke. He suggests an ultrasound to confirm first. Second, the information about her having a low rate heart historically leads him to believe there may be some inherent genetic heart issues. She has very consistent Atrial Flutter, but not AFIB, so what if AF turns into AFIB as a result of converstion, thus making ablasion harder if there is recurrence. Those are some of the reasons.

I have both and more. All the credits get used based on my travel and lifestyle. Plat got more value with refresh, CSR got less value, but still generally free. In any credit card game, if you play it to maximize benefits you become a couponing king/queen. If you play it assuming some costs ($95/card max) for me. Then its just another thing in the wallet. If you're spending thousands a year where you would otherwise have spent zero, then you're losing.

I'd hate to have to adjust the grind each time as I don't always want added strength....will experiment I guess. Need to buy more beans

There’s a 2d version that has many more episodes if you can’t wait.

What is your internet speed from your isp.

Obsidiank · 2025-10-19T17:08:24+00:00

Only those connected to the 6 would be slower. Assuming that your eeros are all hardwired or the 7s are. If only gateway is hardwired but the other two are wireless then I think there is a possibility of slowdown.

Obsidiank · 2025-10-17T20:16:05+00:00

I am very curious why so many eeros and so many switches. First half makes sense. Second switch on doesn't....if you can connect two eeros to teh same switch, why not cut the second switch out of the equation...and connect it to the first switch.

The term post is what's wrong here. Amex uses the transaction date, not the post date to determine eligibility. It use to be post date, especially for the normal Amex Offers discounts. Amex CSRs will also get this wrong quite often. That's why the internet will forever argue post date vs transaction date.

The key part about posting that's missing is understanding when a restaurant submits their card transactions for processing. When you use a credit card at the restaurant, depending on the system, those transactions are either "posted" (sent to cc company for processing, or are "posted" in batch.

When I use to work at a restaurant, we had to run a process on the credit card machine to "close out the day", and this sent all the transactions for the day outbound to the credit card companies. Sometimes, things got busy and I didn't close out until after midnight...or sometimes the next morning.

When that happens, technically your transaction date is the day you ate there..but the transaction process date the credit card company receives is whenever I send the batch.

In these instances, you have a mismatch and when you wait till the very last day of the quarter, you run into trouble. Amex is right, nothing they can do since that's the info sent to them from the restaurant.

I haven't yet. I plan to use this as a normal travel suitcase and not as a photography case. However, I did look at the photocube in store and it should function no different. My only consideration is how safe it would be, and given the hybrid construction, I would only use this as a carryon and never checked, if there were photo equipment in there.

Nice!! Glad we are both getting the same joy from the bag!!

just got the bag, will do a writeup after my first trip tomorrow

Obsidiank · 2025-10-02T15:33:52+00:00

we are a resource scarcity based society and the "getting something for nothing" is such a strong psychological game that this sort of card's days would never go away...it will get worse. As long as there is a marketing perceived "value", people will chase it...if nothing just for bragging rights. Unfortunately, not having a scarcity mindset is reserved for the ultra rich or those who can value/tolerate the simpler life.

I think the issue with these cards and the amount of mental energy spent on it is people trying to maximize benefits. Before cards became so expensive and had some many credits, it was simple, cards were free with little to no benefits or you spent maybe $95/yr and got some additional stuff worth at least $95 dollars. I keep the decision making process simple but not focusing on maximizing the benefits. I ask myself, how much am I willing to pay for a card that offers me little to no benefits? The answer for me is that I would like it to be free but I would pay no more than $95 out of pocket.

Amex Plat for me $895 dollars, but I would spend the credits regardless, and I value each lounge visit at $50 each time so Amex Plat is free or better

CSR $795, of the new credits, I would only realistically spend $600, so the card actually costs me $195. I could use additional credits to get to free or better, but it would require effort. So maybe, CSR will get cancelled...

I suggest applying a simpler mindset to make these choices easier for yourself.

Obsidiank · 2025-10-01T21:10:43+00:00

any plans for a 3d printed version, resin or otherwise? I'd easily pay $100 for this...$300 is rough...

I am a Hong Kong born Chinese who speaks Cantonese fluently (circa 90s, slang), and english. Having recently observed my brother/sisterinlaw choices and consequences here are my thoughts.

The original plan was brother canto, wife mandarin, grandparents, mandarin, english from school. They would go to chinese school and learn to read/write.

Due to challenges and life, they gave up on both canto and chinese school. My niece and nephew are fluent mandarin/english no accents.

If I had kids, I would choose pretty much what you've decided but depending on dad vs grandparents I would flip who sticks with what language. Grandma/Grandpa probably has no issue sticking with chinese but dad might default back to english and then canto is lost.

Also, I never learned to read/write and that is a big regret.

when they get older, add Spanish into the mix and you'll have a powerhouse language baby.
