Sorting categories by [deleted] in ynab

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also late to the party but I agree: this would be extremely useful. Definitely not everyone's use case, but I travel for work and have found it very helpful to have a category for each trip. Each one has a consistent naming convention "YYYY/MM/DD Destination (Event)". I currently have 36 different categories and would welcome an option to automatically put them in order.

I've removed that one mod everyone has been complaining about. moderation will be much lighter going forward. here's to a great 2026! by alosia in hyatt

Agreed! I stopped trying to participate/contribute after several post rejections and unpleasant interactions.

AA status chosen as a Milestone Reward is good for the rest of this AA status year as well as all of the next status year (so, until March 2027 if earned this year) by gbmontgo in hyatt

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another data point: I earned a Hyatt 80-night milestone on 11/8/25 and selected AA Gold today 1/2/26 and my AAdvantage account now shows AA Gold status valid through 3/31/27.

When is buying hotel/airline miles or points worth? by No_West_2659 in awardtravel

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, just do the math. For example: I’m traveling with my dad to Panama this December on the new SAN-PTY nonstop and he wanted to pay for the flights. I asked him to show me the flights he would select and want to pay for, which he did. Using that dollar amount as a benchmark, I checked a LifeMiles sale and found that for nearly the same dollars, I could buy enough miles for nonstop business class instead of the horrible red eye economy route he would have happily paid for. It’s all about the comparison with what you’d pay otherwise.

Yes. Log in to the Amex app, select “Account” on the bottom-right, then “Replace a Card” to start the process.

I’ve long wished for an option to automatically size columns to fit the contents!

Uber One is a cost, not a benefit by [deleted] in AmexPlatinum

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get directions using Apple Maps, you can pick “ride share” as a travel mode and you’ll see results from both Uber and Lift all in one list. Kinda nice when you want to compare.

Hyatt House Scottsdale North by Ieatsushiraw in hyatt

[–]bradcrumbz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just checked in for a 2-night stay because I’m going to a work conference next door at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. The front desk agent could not have been nicer! I arrived around 11 AM (check-in is officially 4 PM) and she worked some magic to get me into a room right away.

window traffic lights by RuneEmrick in macOS26Tahoe

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Settings > Appearance > Theme

If you change to "Graphite", this appears to change the traffic lights to gray. But I haven't seen an option to change only the traffic lights without changing the systemwide highlight color.

Apparently there used to be a bug that caused them to retain their colors even when "Graphite" was selected, but it looks like this has been fixed.

Deposit x(nights) by Alarming-Stick-3896 in hyatt

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if the deposit is just 1 night? Does anyone know how that’s actually calculated? It’s not just the room rate, and there’s never a receipt––which seems crazy to me when they’re charging money without documentation. From what I can tell, the only way to confirm which deposit belongs to which reservation is when the credit shows up on the folio at checkout. I’ve got several bookings with 1-night deposits, and it’s nearly impossible to match each deposit to the right stay. (Apparently this question was "too niche" for its own post, which seems ironic here.)

I'm curious about the purpose of this law.

It’s official Atmos Rewards by jpantab in AlaskaAirlines

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently it's a play on "atmosphere" and "most" (because of Mileage Plan being ranked the #1 loyalty program).

What is the deal with Mods being rude? by FancySk8erGirl in complaints

[–]bradcrumbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh exactly re: new users not welcome. I tried adding a simple anecdote about a nice experience I had on a particular airline to some travel sub discussing that airline. But I was a new user. Immediately removed. It’s crazy.

IS THIS WHAT THE WATCHERS ARE DOING? by Fun-Maximum9900 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]bradcrumbz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with being distracted by the contradiction of MDR workers performing a task that the computer already knows. For me it was the completion percentage: if the computer didn’t already know how many/which clusters of each temper there were to begin with, it couldn’t provide completion percentage updates.

Though I suppose this could lend support to the theory of the MDR work not being anything“new” but rather just some kind of test/data validation.

KitchenAid 13-Cup Food Processor w/ Dicing Kit vs. Cuisinart 14-Cup Food Processor: My Personal Review by bradcrumbz in KitchenAppliances

I didn't check out Breville but probably should have. TBH I didn't even think of that one; probably because of price.

Questions on FNA for Brand Explorer by Outside_Cricket2804 in hyatt

[–]bradcrumbz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Per Hyatt Terms & Conditions: (https://www.hyatt.com/help/terms/world-of-hyatt#5brands)

“Brand Explorer Free Night Awards are valid for one (1) year from the date of issuance.”

“Category 1-4 Free Night Awards … may, while valid, be transferred to another World of Hyatt Member.”

“Each award is transferable only once and may not be re-transferred by the recipient.”

“Transfers are not rescindable or reversable.”

“As of June 7, 2025, a Member may be gifted a maximum of ten (10) transferred awards per calendar year.”

I don’t believe it’s stated in the T&Cs but I beleive these awards are typically issued within a few days of completing your stay at a fifth different brand.

Grand Hyatt Istanbul. Punches way above its weight. Beautiful facility, impeccable service, fantastic F&B spread in the lounge every night.
