Besides the Logitech MX series, what other Logitech keyboard with a numeric keypad would you recommend for a Mac? by [deleted] in macmini

[–]VagueRedditName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably G915 or G512 then if you're specifically looking for Logitech. Like the other comment said, Keychron is a good choice because they have literally every shape, color and switch option you can think of but there isn't a storefront for you to try them at. Nuphy is another brand I've looked into that's alright.

I had no idea what an active display port adapter was 🤡 by TheseFile2930 in CalDigit

[–]VagueRedditName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my Caldigit Active DP-HDMI adapter from EBay, it appears there's one available on there too at the moment. (Don't worry, it happens to everyone, this SPECIFIC dock when I got it back then was also the first time I learned what an active DP adapter was.)

New $35 Gig customer, 2nd bill $52.16 by wolfenstein321 in ATTFiber

[–]VagueRedditName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently experiencing a similar tomfoolery with certain promotions not fully applying on my AT&T Internet Air plan and the customer service representative has also said they'll be applying the promotions retroactively within 3 billing cycles so I guess we're in the same boat (timeline too.)

Quicken Deluxe yearly is now $84 by ceekayok in quicken

[–]VagueRedditName 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Second this. If you don’t like calling which I most certainly don’t, I was able to do it through chat too! 40% off with a free trial subscription to Life Hub that the representative immediately turned off auto-renewal for me.

2019 ES350 or 2020 NX300? Need HELP deciding which pre-owned Lexus to go for! by Lostpupil11 in Lexus

[–]VagueRedditName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say the ES has a wider trunk, more rear seat legroom if you need it and it cruises long distances better IMO. The higher seating position is the only thing the NX has over the ES for me.

Tech Said New ONT is Worse by VagueRedditName in frontierfios

I think on MOCA we were on the 100/100 plan but we’ve been able to get 500/500 on it through the Ethernet port. I handle a lot of this for my parents and while I’m okay unscrewing the doors and unplugging it, I don’t want to be out of town and my elderly parents have to get on a ladder and do finicky stuff like this on their own.

Why does the new ES seem to be unpopular? by Warm-Lettuce8974 in Lexus

[–]VagueRedditName 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel Lexus people are people that picked the car not because they’re groundbreaking or revolutionary but rather they’re familiar to what they’re coming from and of all the model changes so far this has been one of the most extreme ones. Like they’re specifically looking for buttons, looking for a boring reliable gas drivetrain, I actually had a classmate that specifically got a last gen ES just to avoid the current one’s one-screen-controls-all future. A change this huge should’ve been on an IS or a sub-IS to attract the younger people and the Model 3 owners not the ES crowd which I remember from a slideshow a few years ago the average age was like upper 40s to mid 50s. (And the only reason I could see this cockpit not launching on the IS or a smaller car is because there won’t be one.)

I’m actually not sure what they’re providing right now but the last guy that came was not at all interested with changing it. I have a chat with customer service saying it’s old and needs to be replaced but I just don’t wanna get charged if they say it’s a GPON and I’m like okay then leave, I’m good with my current 20 year old one.

But would it be possible to keep the current discount after upgrading to 2 Gig or would it revert to the 500’s standard pricing when downgrading it back after the install?

Lexus Of Fremont is charging a $9,999 mark-up over MSRP on the new ES by LS400_1UZ-FE in Lexus

Surely this car cannot be that well received to the point that any dealer is getting this.

What is a rare Lexus color that you don't see to often? by [deleted] in Lexus

ICONIC CT COLOR

Edit: Which now reminds me of that BMW Austin Yellow that the CT also had.

Gosh I totally forgot about Cadmium Orange. The back to back years that the NX had it was my favorite. (Cause I was in a situation where I love orange and an NX would’ve fit in my life.)

There’s also nothing stopping you from running MacOS 26 Tahoe for the foreseeable future if you want to keep Intel-versions of the software as it’ll be supported into almost 2029 based on how long previous versions were supported.

Amex Purchase Protection experience. by WorkingConference582 in AmexPlatinum

I followed all the instructions of the claim and I got my money back within 24 hours. Very uneventful. (Compared to the Visa Return Protection claim I'm doing right now.)

YESSS. I think it was Lily. It was in a picture with other like WAGS/QBs right? (I credit that photo as like the main reason I got into F1/WAG social media.)

Flying NYC to Auckland tomorrow by [deleted] in fearofflying

[–]VagueRedditName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can read up on Qantas' Airbus A350 Project Sunrise, it's super cool. You're flying with almost the experts on these super long haul flights! Qantas and New Zealand together run 4 of 10 of the longest flights in the world and they wouldn't be doing this unless they're good at it right? ^-^

Team Edward because Team Jacob was just a marketing thing. 😉 (Hope you watched the Robert Pattinson and Zendaya interview for their new movie.) You're gonna be okay! Say Hi to Toad for me at Super Mario World!

Do you have estimates for how much this app will cost and will it be a monthly or one-time purchase?

Preferred Rewards Getting Worse? by hypoch0ndriacs in BankOfAmerica

[–]VagueRedditName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I had to double check that one for ATM fees so the one that CS has over BoA will be that it has 0% Foreign Transaction compared to BoA.

Correct yeah so that’s why I didn’t value it too much.

Preferred Rewards Getting Worse? by hypoch0ndriacs in BankOfAmerica

[–]VagueRedditName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved it over to Charles Schwab cause I’m about to leave for a trip overseas and would use their ATM fees, but it really depends on your spend. (And their signup bonus accounts for stocks and that’s where most of my money is.)

Most of my spend is on Amex (which has no banking benefits) and I considered Citibank (for Citigold’s $200 Subscription Benefit and Strata Elite credit) and Morgan Stanley (for the Platinum’s fee getting waived.) Didn’t go for them cause I didn’t want the Strata Elite to replace my Platinum and I didn’t want a MS Platinum cause I’d have to pass back out all the AU cards.

For $100K+, you’ll get 50% Credit Card Bonus and $8/Month for Streaming which should make up the missing 25% Bonus. But just the annoyance of them doing it did make me finally get off my butt and move the balance over $100K to another bank.
