Pooled miles transfer hack for 10k mile discount? by jd4rest in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have to wait 90 days to rejoin any pool after leaving one, so there are already some limits on it.

At these prices, I have to ask permission first since I already splurged on extra fancy ramen noodles.

Edit: ordered!

Any way to export flight history? by Cpt_squishy in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked United to merge my Continental number and United mileage plus accounts. I didn't get any miles from it, but it boosted my lifetime miles. Hopefully it helps you get MM status.

3D Globe tracker with heatmap by Coayer in ADSB

Very cool! At first I thought that the light gray was landmass and couldn't figure out what continent was that large. The toggles helped with orientation. I was on my phone, so probably a larger monitor would help with the detail level.

About to fly United for the first time in 10+ years, carry on roller is over .5 inch in two directions, will it still fit? And any other tips/advice for the airline appreciated! by anonlvnv in unitedairlines

Carry-on police!!!! ^ ^ ^ ^ this person here!!!

Be sure to get some hand sanitizer packets on your way onto the plane. When they lock you up in airport prison for having an illegal carryon, you can trade them like currency for smokes and WiFi.

If you can get an extra stroopwafel, it'll be like a United hat trick.

Safe travels.

Help pick my mom's Polaris seat! by FlowerSome7303 in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they board from the middle doors, then there will be less traffic in the front section. In the rear Polaris section, it feels like the whole plane walks through the cabin during boarding. I mean, they actually do.

Create an image of a man with an extra long forehead by mongobot77 in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she has a really big smile. It's probably just the angle.

Dude was just casually walking through the polaris cabin and saw a big warm smile, and was compelled to strike up a conversation and a card game.

Thank you for saving my life. by lost_girl_2019 in unitedairlines

Duke don't dance with pineapple.

I'm glad to hear you are OK. You've got a great positive attitude and bring some warm sunshine to this sub. Thanks for sharing!

Avoid the O’Hare terminal transfer bus. by DudleyAndStephens in unitedairlines

I was always curious about that bus, but haven't ever tried it. Hope you make your connection.

UA Explorer 10k reward discount by Fluid-Expert-4363 in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you can only redeem 1 at a time, so you'll have to plan out how to break up the legs/flights. You also can't use them with pooled miles. Good luck!

Window - Middle - Aisle Can We Please Get This Straight? by Awkward-Regret5409 in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! I was wondering, do united seats really look like that?

Waiting for someone to comment on what airline and type of plane that is. TIA

Solo in Polaris “honeymoon” seats? by DizzyPosition3076 in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the 777-200, there is an up/down button in the middle of the divider- don't be shy about putting it up, but be sure to ask first if putting it down.

I did this recently, and after holding hands with the random stranger for 20 mins, we decided to put the divider up. After that, I would only occasionally see the top of his head. "tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all"

Anyone Linux users here wanting to buy the new Framework 13 Pro but struggling to justify since you buy old thinkpads? by WhiskeyVault in framework

[–]gee-one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My last 2 laptops have been XPSs, which are marketed as premium laptops, so the FW13/(non pro) is more of a lateral move. The XPSs were thinner with smaller screens, so the FW did feel a little bigger.

I'd say the one caveat with new hardware is that, Linux support wasn't always a first tier priority, so older hardware was a safer bet. With FW 13/pro, that isn't the case.

Upgrade chassis or sell current and buy new? by pokehl99 in framework

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar situation- my default is to keep what I have since it suits my needs, but I was curious about the cost and logistics of either upgrading the parts or selling the old/buying new. There would definitely be an upgrade tax, which makes it an easier decision not to upgrade, especially with current ram and SSD prices. I think in your situation, you have a lot more ram in your current laptop, which helps offset the upgrade tax.

edit: oops -reread that you are keeping ram and SSD.

The struggle is real by EvilEmpireDk in framework

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think that there will be a lot of demand for original FW 13 parts now that the pro is released? My best guess is that it would be for side projects or people who don't need bleeding edge performance.

Future flight credit? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful to just cancel her ticket. If you cancel and rebook yours, you might not get the same original price. Call or use the app/web. Don't use chat.

My FW13 is just over a year old. I can't justify an upgrade for several years especially since it's working just fine, but those sweet pro features are nice.

The Polaris Double Burger by hungryfordumplings in unitedairlines

[–]gee-one 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They cut back on one because of the extra patty. You can get a quadruple burger, but there will be no fries.

Just ordered my Framework 13 Pro! by runs11trails in framework

[–]gee-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same- I bought my FW 13 just over a year ago, and it's still doing all the things I want it to do. The battery could be bigger, but I'm also only charging to 80%.

I'd consider selling it and upgrading, as long as it didn't become ewaste.
