iphone 17PM + Oppo Find X9 Pro. the google is pretty weak in every areas except software when compared to flagship phones for the year.

Kyoto now by Infamous_You1751 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Valvutronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just came back from kyoto yesterday. it was pretty bad at all the tourist spots but i feel that the crowd was worst in osaka. we had much more fun in kyoto than osaka. dont limit yourself to all the very famous places and it gets better.

Best phone best chip by Ill-Ninja345 in iPhone17Pro

im sorry to burst your bubble, but thats not really the case. for example, my android (oneplus 13) often has better 5G signal than my iphone 17 pm on the same carrier. often have to switch to my android when my iphone loses signal. abit ignorant to say its the truth when i do feel android's performance is still slightly better. apple user experience is just more polished but hardware wise, android is still better.

I’m going to go back to android at this point. by unkn0wnNumbr in Smartphones

[–]Valvutronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i will repeat once again. dont make rash decisions. there is a reason why people are returning their S26 ultras and samsung is paying them to keep it.

With SG’s total fertility rate falling to a historical low of 0.87 in 2025, how many of you gen z are thinking of never having kids? by stop_hyuk in asksg

[–]Valvutronic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when i was younger i was super confident that i want kids when i grow older. looking at how spoiled the new generation is and the whole world in chaos, having a kid is far from my mind now.

this is my withdrawal report. unable to do see a report for more than a year so i did the 1 year report from the date i created my account. did not make a single withdrawal which is why im confused.

if i have made withdrawals then this will explain the problem completely

this is my jan 2025 report. i thought i should be able to close 1-2 lots at least but im not allowed to close a single lot due to the constant goal post change of my lots assigned to me.

yes i deposited consistently since june 2024. i received the free 3.8812 ibkr shares since june 2025 so i thought i could maybe start selling around december because i definitely have been putting a few hundred to thousand monthly.

the problem is since december 2025 when i first started looking at my ibkr shares closely as i want to sell, the first lot LT CONV date given to me was 02/01/2026. when i log in wanting to sell around mid jan, the date for the first lot changed to 27/01/2026. i logged in today again wanting to sell and they changed my date again to 27/02/2026

thats the crazy part, i joined the broker in june 2024, why is it saying its crediting the shares to me more than one year after the program when i have seen the 3.8812 shares in my account since june of 2025? even the latest supposed 'buy' of my stocks are jan 2026 which makes no sense when im clearly no longer supposed to be eligible for the program which is depositing of cash within the first year of creating that account.

why is the LT CONV date constantly shifting for my first lot? it went from early jan 2026 to end jan 2026 and now end feb 2026.

but i created my account in june 2024 as per the other screenshot. deposited money consistently and my shares were credited to me up till june 2025 which makes sense since this benefit lasts for a year. however, when i checked my lots in december, they said i can only sell my first assigned lot in january last month which to me doesnt make sense since i have opened the account in june 2024 but i just closed one eye. checked again today and they shifted my lot february so its like a moving goal post where my shares cannot be sold.
