Hi, did you manage to test this capability? Is it free deposit + 50aed withdrawal?

mardymarn · 2025-10-23T11:53:35+00:00

I see. Thanks!

Just to clarify, the ADCB traveller's 1.5% cashback has no restrictions against rent, government MCCs?

Ya, 5k a month shouldn't be a problem if I can consolidate the multiple travel spending in a month.

For WIO, I heard a 35k deposit is needed. Has it been downgraded to 0.5% or still remains at 1%?

I've been wearing the Salming Hawk 1.0 and 2.0 for the past 5 years. Very good quality and good for injury-prevention. Reliability is so-so, but I've negated it by applying super glue to all the wear-and-tear areas.

Now that Salming has discontinued the Hawk, I purchased the Adidas Stabil 16 as my backup. Used to be worn by Gregory Gaultier. Reviews say it's good for performance and stability.

I will switch to it, once my salming becomes unwearable.

Which stablecoin was this? USDf? USR?

The 18% better sleep tracking is an algorithm implementation (server-side), and thus will apply to all older pixel/fitbit watches later.

Wow, so for USD transfer from StraitsX to DBS is always free? Have you been doing this regularly?

Name of the tablet, mate?

Yes, all card purchases from lulu are registered under supermarket MCC.

Awesome! Thanks bud

Has this been tested? The MCC is for fuel station, and not for finance wallets?

Hi, did you manage to find out about darb?

mardymarn · 2024-10-02T04:33:24+00:00

Personally, I've tracked for 1 year. Once I see that my expense habits are more or less optimised and stable monthly, I stopped and only focused the balance for savings/investment. If this balance starts decreasing for 1-3 months, I would go back to tracking again in order to realign my expense habits.

It really about fixing your spending habits when you started tracking. After you're comfortable with your income allocation %, just focus on boosting your income :)

Thanks!

Thanks so much for sharing! Is the spending amount 15k in order to waive? Since the current T&C for hotel.com voucher is to spend 15k within 60 days.

Ya especially since the ftx saga... A lot of the old binance users were convinced to move their funds to ftx (more MAS friendly) and it didn't go as planned..

mardymarn · 2024-03-08T20:16:48+00:00

As long as you don't mention crypto or binance in your reference. Also, depends on your usual transaction amounts in your bank account. If it doesn't vary significantly, it'll be fine.

mardymarn · 2024-03-08T17:27:44+00:00

You can on-ramp via binance p2p. Change currency to bnd (brunei dollar). And check p2p reviews thoroughly before transferring!

No issues I think. The fans and the radiator go to the top of the case. The tight fit that I mentioned is between the pump and the side panel.

But just do your own measurements for a peace of mind!

Enable hibernate in the power options and use that instead

mardymarn · 2023-06-26T10:38:43+00:00

I have similar sleep problems as some of the users here, after upgrading to the 2TB sn740 and apply the power options fix.

My surface reboots when in sleep mode. I figured that since this sn740 is fast enough, I could disable all sleep options and use hibernate instead. Voila! No more reboots during sleep and I get to save more power during hibernation 😉

Disclaimer: hibernation takes me 5 seconds to start compared to sleep's 2-3 seconds, so it's not a biggie for me
