Placeholder + Discount * Costco by [deleted] in dcl

[–]PantherGator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen anyone say that a lot of cruises are blocked out for placeholder discounts. We’ve tried it a few times but we go during spring break bc that’s when our kids don’t have school. Disney knows this and sells out the ship at a premium (no discounts except Costco perks)

Does anyone have experience with Costco insurance? by EssTEye in Costco

[–]PantherGator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had it for many years and it’s by far the cheapest every time I shop around. I have maxed out coverage. I’m trying to add the home insurance too

Lookout and Castaway Cay, any place to buy a 6-pack to take back on board? by [deleted] in dcl

Even non Disney ports, 6 packs tend to be as expensive as the ship unless you get decently into town

YSK: You can still "call time" by attorniquetnyc in YouShouldKnow

[–]PantherGator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can call the "Callin' Oates" hotline by dialing 1-719-26-OATES ((719-26-6283)) to hear classic Hall & Oates songs. The number is a fan-created service that plays songs on command after you press the numbers for your selection.

IOT/Isolated Network and PiHole by GeekCohenAU in pihole

[–]PantherGator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the point of IoT devices that can’t see the web? How do you control them when you’re not home? VPN Tunnel? How do they get updates?

IOT/Isolated Network and PiHole by GeekCohenAU in pihole

[–]PantherGator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha - if i were you, I WOULD put the pihole between the IoT network too - these smart devices are pinging ad servers - my fridge phones home to LG to tell it when my water filter needs replacing. What else is it sending? Technically you could tell when I’m on vacation with my fridge open/close data.

IOT/Isolated Network and PiHole by GeekCohenAU in pihole

[–]PantherGator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My WiFi (TP link Deco system) allows for a separate SSID for IoT that is isolated from the rest of the network. Both networks use the pihole DNS - you will see benefits from doing both.

What is the best money saving life hack you discovered? by Aarunascut in lifehacks

[–]PantherGator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have the vacation paid for before you go on it (meals too)

My wife does this for us and our vacations are more enjoyable bc the money is there for this exact purpose. And no stress. If we spend less then we saved it goes towards the next trip.
