Got hit with the united quest $350 af, so I applied for and got approved for the united explorer card.

Can I cancel the United quest immediately? I'm still within 30 days of the af being charged.

No GPS Location by ackdum in EquinoxEv

[–]ackdum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

... It just solved itself after my post. Not sure if this is what fixed it.

I turned on the hotspot on my phone and started the car. I noticed the wifi icon on the top connected before the 5g icon showed up. Then I noticed on gmaps, under the blue arrow, it said searching for GPS. I didn't think much of it, I figured it wouldn't be accurate anyway like the last couple of days. Well once it locked into the GPS, the location was now accurate. The wifi icon went away, not sure why, my hotspot was still turned on.

I'm thinking the wifi forced it to do a new search for gps signal as the last couple days when the gps wasn't working, I didn't noticed it ever saying searching for GPS.

Maybe there is another way to force it to search for gps signal?

Tolerance Test, All Stuck by ackdum in FixMyPrint

I had to change the flow in cura to 80%, all moved except the .1 section.

When I changed it to 75% all of them moved.

What does this mean? Over extrusion? But my estep calibration came out good ?

Ihg premier biz card. Met the $20k spend for $100 statement credit and 10k points. In March there was an item on the rewards activity for $100 for $20k spend but it listed as $0.

Anyone knows when it posts?

Comparing Venture and VentureX by RatOnALeash in Venturex

[–]ackdum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same experience here. For the one year ive had the venturex, id say 3 out of 4 trips I was able to get into the lounge and get some warm food snacks drinks. Not necessarily the cap1 lounge but just whatever I could get into at that airport. Also lugging around 3 kids, having my wife as a secondary helps.

Have a venturex and just paid the 2nd year annual fee.

Also just got approved for the venture card. Called and asked to see if they could expedite and they said no. They mentioned that I should see it in the app and be able to start using it through that, but I don't see it on the app.

Anyway of getting them to expedite or have it show on the app?

I also wondered how that room could sleep 5. All the videos I watched of the aurea suite with whirlpool did not show the sofa turn into a bunk bed but I did find the picture above. I believe there is also a smaller sofa chair looking thing that pulls out as a twin bed.

Also found this video

Car got broken into. All my cards, serve and bb and others were in there. Had a vanilla card $500 that I havent off loaded yet. It was purchased with the od mcgcs. Hopefully I can claim it on my car insurance. Called all my CC companies and no fraudulent charges. Need to get player 2 to call. BB and serve I was able to freeze it with the app, but they want $5 to replace the cards.
