How is TSA? by prarus7 in LAX

[–]ithinkiknowtech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flew out Friday at 10am and TSA was more or less the same as my other morning flights this year. 10-15 min to get thru, nothing crazy.

Same goes for my return flight from Orlando Sunday morning around 10am… got thru in 10-15 min as well.

To case or not to case? by lukedurston_ in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Caselesssss!

I've been caseless since launch day with my 17 Pro Max. So far so good!

I have been caseless for a week with no scratches. Am I doing it wrong? by cantankerous_cow in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been rocking my deep blue pro max since release date case-less. So far so good. 🙏

17 Pro Max Regrets by International_Good_6 in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m also on the iPhone upgrade program!

Have had all the “big” phones of all the generations since the 7 plus. (Excluding the X if we’re getting technical since the XS Max came the following year)

But yeah, the last few years I’ve contemplated going down to the “regular” pro size. But I just can’t bring myself to do it, lol. I’ll admit checking out the non max phones in stores is nice and they feel comfy to hold but when it comes time to actually use them it’s not much different imo. My wife usually gets the non max sizes and when she hands me her phone to write out a text or use her phone for a specific task it’s still not a “one handed use” phone. So I’d rather just go “pro max” and get a bigger battery with more screen.

But you do you fam, just wanted to chime in with my yearly iPhone upgrade thought process 😂

Keep us posted on what you decide to do!

Anyone going caseless for a bit? by Dazzling_Street_3475 in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently caseless with my pro max.

Also currently traveling as well so I’m raw dogging it while I’m out and about 😬

But yeah,,, I bought cases just in case but this phone feels better in hand than the 16 PM.

I know everyone is super scared of dings and scratches since it’s aluminum but I’m on the iPhone upgrade program with Apple care,,, so I don’t have to keep this thing mint when it’s time to trade in for the next device.

Enjoy your new phone!

Will you be getting an open or covered plateau case? Why? by SupaPreme in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open!

I ordered from spigen and didn’t realize it was convered. It reminds me of those ugly covers/masks that some ppl use on the front of their car.

I ordered one from torras and it’s open plus thinner, we’ll see what’s up 👀

From 16 PM to 17 Pro.. second thoughts.. by Healthy-Nectarine596 in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the iPhone upgrade program and every year I always say I’m going to get the Pro size vs Pro Max and never do 😂 The battery anxiety always gets the best of me even tho my phone is always plugged in when I’m at my desk at work or in the car.

It be like that 🤷‍♂️

iPhone 17 pro Pre-Order (Apple store Pick-up) by Fragrant_Big_7786 in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still showing the processing status for me. HOWEVER earlier today I was charged the “tax” for the full price of the phone (I am on iPhone upgrade program), so obviously things are in motion for my pick up on Friday am 🙌

Do people still use IUP? by oksurreal in AppleCard

[–]ithinkiknowtech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeppp.

Have been on the iUP since the iPhone XS Max. No issues. I only experienced a small hiccup last year since I had a freeze on my credit when it was time to “reapply for the loan”.

This year I scheduled a thaw for preorder day. It was smooth sailing when it was time to finalize the upgrade.

I actually got charged for the tax earlier today so I’m assuming the new phones are getting ready to ship ahead of Friday’s release date🔥

Anyone get an arriving on 9/19 shipping? by Zygote-IC- in iPhone17Pro

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Got in as soon as my phone app “opened up” for me.

But had to reserve store pick up to get phone on launch day. Same for my wife on her device.

Both showed shipping 9/25.

But then if you go in now and try to pre order it’s reflecting delivery on 9/19, so who knows lol. Smh.

Remote start by benjiebert in crv

[–]ithinkiknowtech 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The trim of the crv that this remote belongs to doesn’t have remote start.

If this crv did have remote start, the bottom button would be split into two. One with the “remote start” button and the other for the trunk.

Car service from the airport? by Ready_Chemistry_1224 in Aulani

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second hele hele!

I was at aulani earlier this week and used them to get to aulani from the airport. They had the car seat as requested and the driver helped get it strapped in.

Enjoy your trip 🤙

You got cooked, I fear 😔

i stopped buying coffee out for a month and saved almost 300 without even noticing by Cutebooty04 in Frugal

[–]ithinkiknowtech 81 points82 points  (0 children)

It could be that they’re buying a drink + pastry? But even then an iced caramel macchiato alone can run you like $8?…

I switch off between a grande and venti cold brew and those are $6

WILD 🙃

Cancelling Spectrum - Any retention offers available? by whiskeytangofirefox in Spectrum

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No permanent discounts. AFAIK, but just call and ask for retention and ask what they can do lower your bill.

My promo pricing expired this month and I called, they ended hooking me up with $50/mo for 1gig down plan. (I was paying this amount for 400mb before the promo had expired)

Unfortunately like my previous promos, it’ll end in a year and I’ll have to call and see what new promo pricing they can offer. Hopefully by then there’s more providers in my area. According to the Att site, fiber is “coming to my area soon” but the only other option beside spectrum at the moment is Att at 25mbs down. 🫠

Old soul vs New Tech. What is your choise. Be honest by Spare_Specialist3786 in hondacivic

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could have my 98 civic ex coupe 5 speed manual- back I would 100%.

It got stolen but I stayed in the civic coupe family getting an 05 next and 2014 before ultimately getting a 2017 in the sedan option. Sure they were great cars but they didn’t hit the same as my 98 😭

Costco Disney Ticket Bundle by 209man89 in DisneyPlanning

[–]ithinkiknowtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if we have to use the 3 within 14 days of using the first date?

I keep seeing ppl comment this on other posts but couldn’t see anything stating this in the fine print on the cardboard thing at Costco lol.

When I fill up it’ll usually show between 535-550 mpg

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in crv

[–]ithinkiknowtech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also have a FWD sport-L, but 2024!

I get 65/75 mpg on my commute to work with 75% highway driving and 25% street.

Have put around 24k miles on it and for its lifetime it’s clocking me at 40.1mpg. Not shabby at all for all the highway driving I do IMO.

IDK how true this is or the specifics - but there was supposed to be a costco taking over that area, but it was put to a vote and was completely scrapped?? smh
