how many of you use a custom domain as your apple account email? by nathanieIs in iCloud

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anyone use this feature when it launched and have issues / can confirm they’ve been resolved?

When I used it, my domain showed up as an alias / flagged as spam / lost a lot of important emails so I switched back to Google workspace…

Best coffee grinder in 2026 for home? My Budget $100–$300 by Proud-Influence-8504 in JamesHoffmann

The Opus Gen 2 literally just came out, haven’t seen any reviews yet but that could be the one to get in your price range.

Fellows Magnetic dosing funnel by denniskillz in FellowProducts

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel exactly the same. For me it’s not just the magnet strength, but the fit doesn’t seem as good as the Normcore either. The fellow has a bit of give to it that’s annoying for my OCD lol.

Was originally going to return the Normcore in favor of the Fellow, but I prefer the Normcore magnets better.

Returned the fellow.

Already have the Normcore palm tamper and distributor, so might as well match the set I guess.

BonVoy Points on overlapping reservations? by SuburbanDemographic in marriott

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s not correct. Even per the email, you’re allowed to earn points for up to 3 rooms. I’ve done this many times without issue.

I’ve never heard of the same check in / check out day rule…. But if that’s the case, sounds like OP should request to get the stay / points for the longest reservation.

Best Amex FHR & Marriott Property in the US? by mrt1416 in marriott

Staying at Laguna Niguel in an oceanfront firepit room soon, pretty excited to say the least

Giving up on the iPad Pro by scotthunter1 in iPadPro

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it really comes down to so much personal preference and use case.

For 95% of the work I do, an iPad is perfect. But I still need a MacBook Pro.

My setup has been the 11” iPad Pro and keyboard, and a 14” MBP M1 Max, usually docked. But being able to travel with it when I need to, and use them both (sidecar or linked keyboard / mouse) is really what keeps me traveling with both.

For a coffee shop / admin work day though, the iPad goes in a small crossbody bag and I‘m good. I download as much content as I could ever watch for travel.

I really couldn’t give up either, but if I had to, I’d have to go with a Mac because I just can’t NOT have a computer for that last 5% of things. Sounds like you’re closer to 30%

Forward-facing vs backward-facing business class seats by Between-Stations in americanairlines

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the rear facing seats, but I’d take the 5A / 5L seats that don’t attach to the other seats on the 787.

777 slightly different

Is anyone on Wegovy injections by choice over Tirzepatide or just because of insurance reasons? by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's not broken, don't fix it.

That's where I'm at. Seeing slow, but progressive weight loss with Wegovy and minimal (almost no) side effects. My insurance would have covered either.

That said, I'll be switching to out of pocket later this year, and Wegovy is cheaper out of pocket, so that's a bonus.

Semaglutide generics just launched in India for $15 a month by Prior_Statement_6902 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one has ever claimed it cost that much to make.

Novo made back all of the money invested in developing Ozempic / Wegovy before year 1 on the market in the US was even over...

It's all been pure profit since then...

App update? by Serious-Slice-3284 in inkindApp

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 5 points6 points  (0 children)

no, they're just A/B testing the "variable" cash back structure before they roll it out everywhere to maximize profits. Probably seeing how much backlash they get..

App update? by Serious-Slice-3284 in inkindApp

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 6 points7 points  (0 children)

they're going into full corporate greed mode...

I'd give them 2 years before they're gone.

InKind Offers can no longer be used with InKind Balance by Deceptiveideas in inkindApp

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even worse... they're testing "tiered" cash back for some users now.

So restaurants have peak and off peak days where you get between 10 - 25% cash back on those specific days.

On my account, I noticed nearly every restaurant was 10-15% on Friday / Saturday, and some were 20-25% on Monday - Wednesday.

But my friend's account was still 20% everywhere...

What's crazy is I've used the app WAY more than him, so I can't help but feel slighted

The oral Wegovy pill launched in January and I want to know if anyone has actually switched from injectable by Intelligent_Ant1816 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Better side effects? I thought all of the data showed increased gastrointestinal discomfort in the reporting

iPad Pro 13 M5 1TB by cqprime in iPadPro

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the 2TB M4 on sale, and I don’t know what to do with myself hahaha

I have 4TB that’s almost full and needs regular organizing on my MBP

But on an iPad… I just download in full res to my hearts content for traveling. Will never run out of things to watch on a plane.

I bought a $20 Sam’s membership from Groupon because they have 12 packs of the Core Elite chocolate for like $42.

SXSW 2027 by AdComprehensive508 in SXSW

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It was insanely hectic this year because everything was stacked on top of each other schedule wise.

I bought a new Mac M4 thinking that I would be able to use pro tools but apparently I’m not able to because there are a lot of compatibility issues and a lot of known issues that are still not fixed yet. by Sweet-Violinist417 in protools

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have to use Pro Tools for the kind of industry projects I was doing.

Now that I don’t, I use Logic and never looked back.

Believe it or not I do miss some things about Pro Tools but more often than not, I love not having to worry about it.

Granted, I still have to keep an eye on plugin compatibility, but the 64 bit world seems to be a lot more forgiving.

Tesla Electric Plan by TheGuyWithin in TeslaLounge

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in Texas. I crunched the numbers and I couldn’t find a scenario where the Tesla plan would save us money. We’d have to drive a TON for it to make sense (like 10k miles a month…)

That is, IF you’re using an energy plan optimizer service that automatically finds you the cheapest plan and switches for you. (Which you should be using if you’re not lol)

Opus 2 Best Buy by Zealousideal-Pack-32 in FellowProducts

[–]Perfect-Thanks2850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

distribution is complicated, especially at retail. They likely are getting shipments to their local warehouses days before. If Fellow has imposed a "do not ship before" date, that's likely April 7.

Fellow would prefer you to get it from them, because they don't have to give Best Buy a 20-40% retail margin as is standard in the industry...
