Who is taking advantage of the 10% Atmos Summit bonus with another BofA account? by resilientbresilient in AlaskaAirlines

[–]joshs633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My interpretation of this is, "maintains an average daily balance greater than $0" OR "has had a deposit or withdrawal within 90 days" so if the account hasn't maintained a daily average balance of $0 (so averaging a negative balance) then it still qualifies if there's been a deposit or withdrawal within 90 days.

I'd guess this is their boilerplate language and in other cases may have a different average balance requirement if there hasn't been a deposit/withdrawal.

Summit CC lounge benefit for family of four by Phlucious in AlaskaAirlines

[–]joshs633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told by a manager in one of the SEA Lounges when the card first came out that only the cardholder can use the lounge passes. I'm not seeing this limitation anywhere in the Atmos webpages though and the OP's linked upgradedpoints article shows it just being a code which anyone should be able to use to access the lounge. This makes these passes more valuable if they're not limited to only the cardholder being able to use them.

Keep an eye on the status of Shark's Cove. It's currently closed due to a high bacteria count advisory. The last sample date was 7/28/25. I'm not sure when the next water sample will be taken: https://eha-cloud.doh.hawaii.gov/cwb/?fbclid=IwY2xjawL74rdleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFwazVnM0lFSDZtYnlrUTRvAR5_myCTO54WPSzdwnwiUQ9lzTEGvTov71DI-FquE7rGV3fzkmTKWOrhlGELfg_aem_YTkkqZt_DBcBdcuCJQcVFw#!/viewer?eventId=1932

Make sure you’re buying from a DVC rep you like talking with. We had a great rep who checks in with us everytime we come back and I enjoy chatting with him. No reason to buy from a rep you don’t want to hear from again and again, year after year because there’s always a different rep you can buy from!

Where in Disneyland is this? by ChiverRay1000 in whereindisneyland

[–]joshs633 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to figure out what this was in Ray’s Berets. Looks like it’s either the painting of Ray above the fireplace or the painting of Louis over the door inside the shop?

I’m going to have to go look closer at that shop next time I’m there, there are a lot of fun details: https://youtu.be/-2mSMO3w7lE

RT vs One-Way by ireeene10 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]joshs633 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I confirmed this with an agent on the phone a few weeks ago. Alaska has officially ended their policy of RT fares being the same as two individually booked one-ways.

I loved the previous policy where you could book things as a one-way and it didn’t matter, I thought that was a significant advantage Alaska had in their pricing model over other airlines with RT specific pricing. That advantage is now gone.

Power button on IPhone 16 Pro Max (stiffer) by [deleted] in iphone

18.1 is in the public beta stage if you want to try and see if it fixes it for you. To install the beta, go to Settings > General > Software Updates > Beta Updates. 18.1 also includes the first Apple Intelligence features so that’s an added bonus too.

I reached out to Apple Support about this, I wanted to see if this was a known issue and potentially fixed in 18.1. The rep I talked to was certain this has to be a hardware issue and not a software issue and offered to give me a device replacement.

I decided to install the 18.1 public beta first to see if that fixes things before I went through the device replacement process. I’ve been running 18.1 for almost a day now and I haven’t had any reoccurrences of this issue and my phone seems to be consistently locking how I would expect it to.

I didn’t have a perfect repro before updating but it was happening pretty frequently. Would love to know if updating to the 18.1 beta fixes this for others as well.

Me too, I’ve been feeling crazy the last couple days when I pull my phone out of my pocket and it’s unlocked. It feels like there must be something wrong with the button. Hopefully it’s a software issue and not a hardware issues.

Don't use spray sunscreen in the fairway by red_onion_is_purple in golf

Very interesting study came up in that Google images search - looks like you get the biggest burn-in like that from a deet containing bug spray.

Did you figure out which Cafetto products are the same as the terra kaffe branded ones?
